Apart from a(2)=9 all other terms are either 1 or 8.
EXAMPLE
a(3)=8 because p(3)=5 and 5^3=125 -> sum-of-digits = 8. a(4)=1 because p(3)=7 and 7^3=343 -> sum-of-digits = 10 -> sum-of-digits = 1.
MATHEMATICA
n=3; su[x_] := Sum[IntegerDigits[x][[i]], {i, Length[IntegerDigits[x]]}]; Table[su[su[su[su[Prime[x]^n]]]], {x, 100}]
Table[If[(m9=Mod[Prime[n]^3, 9])==0, 9, m9], {n, 200}]
