oh cool. was this just from the stuff circulating or was this a studio version we haven't heard of yet? smile



whats up with saying you got an email? Those songs including I Miss U are over on im'eem.... and I'm lietrally floored that more folks have not picked up on that. Not sure why a certain poster is acting as if they were email the songs exclusively

By the way did I mention that Chocolate Box is bangin... can't wait to hear the version on the album. If the version leaked today is any indication Prince fans can return to the dance floor with something current!

boring - same beat as When Doves Cry...but with shite lyrics and no real hook...very disappointing..hope he does what he did wth the original version of Guitar - pushes delete and starts again...so far its not good at all for MPLSound IMHO...Lotus Flower is totally the opposite for me - the sample of Dreamer sounds fantastic...

This version seems to be missing the synth line that was present on the 45 second preview.

There are fans that have been waiting for him to do a club record... its been a while. This is it


This is far from a club banger. The beat with the little guitar pluck at the end of each phrase makes it sound cheesy. Toward 2:30 into the song it shows some promise. The minimalist production is promising, but there is no memorable hook that makes you want to keep playing the record over and over. This will not get any spins in the club.


lol!... the hook is "I got a box of Choc.. that will rock the socks of any Girl that wanna come my way"

You could be right about it getting no club play... but it won't be because its not a club song cause it clearly is. That is the sole purpose of that record

and IMO he more than accomplished his goal

your an idiot... the hook is "I got a box of Choc.. that will rock the socks of any Girl that wanna come my way"

LOL I'm not even going to deal with the idiot thing less I violate terms of service.

I said MEMORABLE hook. You want to hear someone chanting "I got a box of Chocolates that will rock the socks of any Girl that wanna come my way" to NO melody at ALL?! Well go right on ahead. I still say it lacks a hook esp in the melody department. The whole song is a chant. And at one point the breakdown sounds like Gwen Stefani's chants of B-A-N-A-N-A from "Hollaback" girl.

This is Prince attempting to do the Neptunes attempting to do Prince. He's so much better without the middleman.

Hey [Name calling snip - luv4u] Prince was talkin about Newpower Soul back in '88 when Lovesexy came out! THAT is where I got my screen name from when I first got online with AOL in 1996! (Which by the way was shortly after "Newpower Soul" was a smoothedout funk track on NPG's "Exodus") SO please know your shit before you come at me with your B.S.

sorry, yeah its not exactly the same, sure - to be precise its NOT the same beat...but it is made to 'recall' that very famous 80's vibe - there is no doubt about that...

differnt strokes- some people love this song (which is cool)....for me its a case of been there, done that - and it was better first time around (in the 80's)...Lotus Flower intrigues me more...thankfully this year, with 3cds, we have a choice LOL

Interesting critiques going on in this thread....When Doves Cry, Rave and Undisputed comparisons? Lyrics about gays, meds and being erect? Cheesy chorus with minimalistic properties like Hollaback Girl (I liked Hey Mickey better) cool ? Only a day away before I hear what all the hubbub is about.

yeah, wtf is that supposed to mean "are you gay or poppin' pills?"

it's probably "are you happy or depressed" (taking anti depressants)
but it's still a weird choice of words, especially since he should
know by now that after his vague gay thingie in the papers last year
people are going to be tripping on that, lol.

it don't matter the context, "prince is hating on the gays again".

lol
