Since this concert was filmed before stay-at-home orders were put in place, it's not a series of at-home videos from individual stars like we've gotten used to during these unprecedented times. Instead, fans will get to see The Revolution, Sheila E., Morris Day and the Time and other stars actually together on stage in front of an audience.
Rudolph not only serves as host, but performs with her Prince cover band Princess. The concert also features performances by Beck, Gary Clark Jr., Common, Earth, Wind & Fire, Foo Fighters, H.E.R., Juanes, Miguel, St. Vincent, Mavis Staples, as well as appearances by Fred Armisen, Naomi Campbell, Misty Copeland, FKA twigs and Jimmy Jam.
Prince, a 38-time Grammy nominee and seven-time Grammy winner, died on April 21, 2016, at his Paisley Park estate in Minneapolis, Minnesota. It was later determined to be an accidental fentanyl overdose.
