Prince and Bob met. Some one actually had the crazy idea of them working together. Bob was freaked out by Prince in g-string back in the day. but...that song that Rosie sang - "i wanna give you some love..." > that's a Marley song. | |

I'll 2nd that One! It would be so off the meat rack! edit = (He could really flip it out as a 'Medley' with "You Make My Sun Shine" and transition in2 it...)

Y'all beat me to it but of course Kinky Reggae is the obvious choice.

Well Rosie Gaines used to sing a little bit of Lively Up Yourself during the Diamonds and Pearls tour, and this is mentioned in the liner notes in the Songs Of Freedom box set

Kinky Reggae and Redemption Song
The pleasure of a good song can't be paid for with money alone - Sinbad the Sailor, Arabian Nights | |

Buffalo Soldier ... what a wonderful song that still is and I'm sure Prince would dig the lyrics.
Coolness Personified. | |

Yes, at some point early in his career, he was managed by Bob Marley´s manager for a brief time. The NPG has done quite a few Marley covers over the years but Prince didn´t sing. Rosie did the singing.Some people mentioned a few songs already but they did a couple more in the late 90´s ( around 98 or so). | |

 Prince & the NPG performed "No Woman No Cry" at an aftershow in San Francisco on 18th October 1998 and "Redemption Song" on 2nd January 1999 at Studio 54, MGM. I believe Rosie Gaines was on lead vocals on both occasions. | |
