His name's Dez Dickerson, and he's singing "I want to be a MODERNAIRE".
He was a guitarist in Prince's band from the first album up through 1999.

Maybe it's the episode where J.J. gets shot - the leader of the gang he was in looked like Prince, too. He was giving Thelma the "eye"... My author page: https://www.amazon.com/au...eretttruth | |

If that were Prince he'd of had on ass-less pants. Seriously, though, I remember that bully as "Zack" from PBS tv's "The Electric Company?" (And he deserved that ass-whippin' too!) | |

At one point I also thought he said I want to be in mountain air. Maybe because that made more sense to me at the time? I guess I thought he liked to chill in the mountains out in the fresh air! I was only 8! | |
