I think there's a valid reason why there's nothing in the Vault about this track...
blah blah blah

Maybe, but then why did 3rdeyegirl or whoever is impersonating them post this?

Who are they?

What date is this song from? Album? Project?

If we can name the performers etc we could move this thread to non-Prince.

Ah, I didn't even check there. Oops!

But weird that google did not show the youtube link in the results.

So it is non-Prince.

Rob Bacon is a legend.

He's the guitarist responsible for most of the funky licks you hear in West Coast hip-hop.

All those DJ Quik classics? That's Rob on guitar. Spice 1? Suga Free? Yep. He's worked with Raphael Saadiq, Ashanti, Amp Fiddler, John Legend and many more.

West Coast hip-hop fans know all about Rob.

IMHO, MUCH better than that "uptown funk".

yes, i'm making a comparison cuz these two are better suited musicians who can put it correctly together.

Thanks for the link!
