idk, I think it's a decent attempt at trying to have some aspect of his music current | |

You're right, but I quite like this song. And it's still much better than all that radio crap. | |

I don't know about a big hit, but it is one of the funkiest tracks on the set. Was very relevant to the times to with the AIG comment, economy, etc. 2bad nobody heard it but us mostly. was funky for sure... | |

Prince has a nerve criticising other people's shady business practices. | |

Yeah, that's why it's all over radio, has a amazingly innovative video, and is a bonus DVD-ROM on the CD maxi single. Oh wait.....it's not. | |

This thread is cracking me up.
"Old Skool Company" is like 'The Black Album' meeting "Sign O' The Times', and PURELY Prince...Complete with one of the greasiest funk guitar rhythms ever. I usually pick up the Bass on this one, since there's so much room 4 it... "He's a musician's musician..." |

I have no idea what you're saying. Can you learn to quote someone better and type beneath that so people can read what the fuck you're talking about? Seriously, no idea what you said. | |

Did it have potential to be a big hit? Perhaps, but irrespective of that, I think it's one of his best songs in the last decade. It took a few listens to get into, which is not uncommon with Prince songs, but then the full force of the song hit. It's a funky gem with a cool vocal performance. | |

Shit Hop = Your favorite way of saying hip hop. How does Ol' SKool Company sound/feel hip hop at all? I hear a little George, and some 70's pimp vibe, in there... but no real Hip Hop influence at all... "New Power slide...." |

Which, ultimately, is why I scratch my head at the hate some of the 2009 material gets. I like this funk stuff better than the funk on New Power Soul and Rave by quite a bit.

I love it - its minimalist, somewhat bleak, funky and deftly blending some old school feel with a modern hue and Prince's own definitive stamp. On point and one of my favourites on that particular disc. ...we have only scratched the surface of what the mind can do...
