Prince's rapping skillz

I think........

Some of his raps weren't that great:

Sticky Like Glue- "It was the coolest movie evaah, the one we saw last night. The closer you got to me the less we saw, alright." -___-

Laydown

Arrogance

Love 2 The 9's

While others sounded as if he were an ACTUAL rap artist:

The P

18 and Over

P Control

Face Down (Ouuhh he must've been pissed when he wrote that!)

Pope

Mr. Goodnight

^Those raps are much better than most of the CRAP thats on the radio 2day!!!

What do you think about P's rapping?

His rap verse on "incense and candles" was nice. He's not a bad "rapper". He proved he can actually do it all. I just think that the "incense and candles" verse was by far his best. I've let several friends hear that track and we constantly play it back.

Yeah, Dead on it is also my favorite of his rap-inspired songs...the lyrics are just hilarious! I think Prince is a man of many talents, but rapping isn't one of them, he should stick to shredding that guitar like a motherfucker!!!
cool cool

He stated sometime after the release of "Emancipation" in the Musician magazine that he doesn't rap or consider himself a rapper. He compared his approach to James Brown's, half-singing / half-speaking.

Not that his vocal delivery on some of the TGE era cuts like "Days Of Wild" wouldn't be flawless.

I like his rapping. Not a big fan of "Dead on It" though.
