3121 Radio is a demo radio show compiled by Prince and DJ Rashida in early 2006 for Sirius Satellite Radio, with a plan to launch a full-time Prince-focused station during the promotional push for the album 3121. The project was unknown until it was used in the launch of a one-month Prince-themed posthumous Sirius XM station in May 2020, as exclusive content not previously heard. The recording likely took place over two days on 30 March 2006 and 16 April 2006.
Similar to earlier broadcasts like 1989’s The New Power Generation Radio Show, 1995’s WNPG Radio, and the eleven editions of the NPG Ahdio Show, the show includes music from Prince’s own catalogue and associated artists, as well as songs he was inspired by (some of which he had covered live), music selected by DJ Rashida, and skits and segues - in this case, performed by DJ Rashida and comedian Katt Williams, who appears as DJ Rashida’s 'roommate' "Ezekiel" for various skits.
In a Vanity Fair announcement about the show, the show was discussed by DJ Rashida and Sirius XM president Scott Greenstein:
"They recorded a two-and-a-half hour demo episode, but hardly anyone has heard it: “Nobody,” Rashida said, laughing, in a phone interview on Tuesday. She’d just been on the phone with other Prince collaborators. “I don’t think anybody knows that it exists other than the people who directly worked on it or were there while we were working on it,” Rashida said.In 2005 Prince and SiriusXM (Sirius Satellite Radio at the time) had talked about starting an artist-designed show that could play unreleased and live recordings, interviews, and music he’d been listening to. “I really wanted Prince to turn his full creative genius into a curated radio experience,” SiriusXM president and chief content officer Scott Greenstein wrote in an email."
