Prince has announced, via a press release from his publishers Spiegel and Grau, that he will be releasing a memoir in fall of 2017, Rolling Stone reports. The book will be Prince's first and will discuss the "people, places and ideas that fired his imagination," according to the statement.

"Prince is a towering figure in global culture and his music has been the soundtrack for untold numbers of people — including me — for more than a generation; his creative genius has provided the musical landscape of our lives," said Chris Jackson, Spiegel and Grau Executive Editor.
