"I believe ‘Deliverance' is a timely release with everything going on in the world today, and in light of the one-year anniversary of his passing," Ian Boxill, an engineer at Prince's record label Paisley Park, shared in a statement, according to ENews. "I hope when people hear Prince singing these songs it will bring comfort to many."

"Prince once told me that he would go to bed every night thinking of ways to bypass major labels and get his music directly to the public," Boxill explained. "When considering how to release this important work, we decided to go independent because that's what Prince would have wanted."

The album's title track, Deliverance, was released on Wednesday, and is available for purchase on iTunes or can be streamed via Apple Music.

A hard copy of the EP is set to be released nationwide on June 2, but according to Minnesota news outlet KTSP, court documents show Paisley Park and Prince's estate have filed a federal lawsuit against Boxill.

The lawsuit claims Boxill is in possession of five of Prince's unreleased tracks recorded from 2006, including the single "Deliverance" which was released on Wednesday. The documents allege that Boxill "is now trying to exploit one or more songs for his personal gain at expense of the Prince Estate."

According to KTSP, the lawsuit also details a confidentiality agreement Boxill signed, stating any recordings he worked on with Prince would not be used by Boxill, and instead, "would remain Prince's sole and exclusive property."

The recordings in question are said to be worth over $75,000.

UPDATE: April 19, 2017, 11:49 a.m. UTC Updated to include information surrounding lawsuit against Boxill.
