As has already been confirmed, it is NOT Prince.

To be honest, I'm surprised so many people are suckered into thinking it's him, anyone who listens to Prince's music should be able to distinguish.

I've been listening to this little purple man for over 20 years.....until I SEE / READ something from someone who matters (sorry, not you!) I say it's him!

I'm sorry, but this post made me do this:

ThunderCer said:

I'm not saying I've confirmed it silly, it's already been stated by those involved that IT. IS. NOT. PRINCE.

If you bothered to read the link I gave you, and dug around here yourself, you'd see it's not my opinion, it's what those involved have stated is the truth.

NouveauDance said:

No! You don't matter! He says it's him!

TheMistress said:

OK....."HE" says it's him.....I know it's him! NO ONE else could sound like that!

This CD is just a bunch offunky doo doo....I mean that in a good way! If you don't have it you better put on your sneakers and run to the wrecka sto!

Now we wait.....for the Goerge Clinton "All Star CD".....anyone know the release date?

Damn newbies!

As I've said before.....I've been listening to Prince for more than 20 years (1999 was the first record I heard and I think I was in the 5th grade? Do you know what a record is?) so a "newbie" I am not. I've also been a part of this "community" for quite some time, I just don't get on much.

So, when "ONE" comes out with his solo CD.....I'll believe it's not Prince. Until then, I say it is!

Hmmmmm.....when did I join? Hmmmm.....when did you join? Seems you're on this site 24/7.....nothing better to do with your life?

Now, I'll stop getting personal
We're all entitled to our opinions right? It sounds like him, it could be him, I think it's him.

Peace my friend!

Just listened to "Groove Eternal" and the genius officially says, that ain't Prince. End of thread. I like the dudes voice a lot, absolutely amazing but it ain't Prince. Case closed.

Did some research (okay I just typed "Groove Bootsy one" in google) and from what I can tell the his name is Chris Walker. Can't find anymore information on the guy but here's the link though if anyone's interested:

I've been around awhile too. And even tho Bootsy denied it, I think Prince definitely helps out on those tracks. The falsetto voice doesn't sound like Prince in it's tone but it sounds EXACTLY how he would sing it. Like someone had a demo of Prince singing it and learned to copy it exatcly right down to the adlibs. Or, his voice is somehow disguised. The words and melodies also sound exactly like a Prince cut. AND during "Groove Eternal", when they're chanting "Dig that goove eternal, here's our latest jam...etc", it's DEFINITELY Prince's voice. Maybe he didn't want credit cuz it's on WB. Also, Rosie's on the album! Just like that Goofy Movie soundtrack feat. Tevin and Rosie with a music director named Paisley Pappe or something. I mean, COME ON!

this is why Prince fanatics are the most lame fan base in the world. anything they like Prince had to be involved with or inspired it somehow. God forbid there was good music that has nothing to do with Prince. I mean, it is obvious the Beatles and Elvis stole everything from Prince. how could they have been that great without Prince.

You probably have a really good point there. It maks sense. Prince helps ghost write the song but refuses to put his voice on it because as he hinted on Tavis Smiley, those are his enemies. At the same time he loves Bootsy so (now this is all pure speculation, an educated guess on my part if you will) he records a demo, finds a guy with an amazing falsetto (who knows the guy probably found him) and Prince decides that their collaboration will have the moniker "One" for whatever Princely reason. That explains why the guy didn't use his name. There's definitely some Prince type vibes there, but I don't think he's on the album at all. not even the "Dig that groove eternal" part. I listen on headphones and it doesn't sound like Prince to me. It sounds like a guy trying to sound like Prince.

kdj997 said:

Okay....then it's Andre' Cymone! You people who don't think it is him are nuts! It's on THUMP records.....I'll call them direct tomorrow!

What name will he use on George Clinton's CD when it's released? Any one know the release date?

MUST BE NICE!

Man, you are something else. If you ain't a fan then step! Don't rip those who are.

I like MANY other musicians who never had anything to do with Prince (and probably never will).....get a life.....oh, and go wash your mouth out!
