Remember T.C. Ellis?

Anyone remember T.C. Ellis and True Confessions, the CD that Prince produced for him in 1991?

I really liked "Miss Thang" the single that he released - but the rest of the album was pretty flat IMO.

Was I the only one who bought this album?

No,I bought it also and I thought that was a good song. I always wondered why he never did get to Rap like he Said in Graffiti Bridge.

Actually,he did finally get to rap in 'GB' at the very end,during "New Power Generation Pt.2".

I never bought his CD,but I remember seeing it in the record stores when it came out.Can someone describe it in more detail? How heavy was Prince's involvement?

Miss Thang was a decent single...should've & could've gotten some airplay (but didn't). The rest of the album is so-so.

Anyone belong to Bearshare? It's one of my shared songs.
