She said she did it all herself. I swear I thought I heard her brother singing background. Didn't you?

If she really has cleaned up her act and is doing her thing, great. The music is actually pretty good.

I think it's her TRYING to sound like prince. The songs aren't half bad, but it sucks that she is trying to sound like him




Smooches;)

I don't think Prince is on the record, but at times she does sound just like him. I really like the songs and I hope she comes out with a full CD!

Interesting indeed. She sounds just like her brother. Or was her brother singing with her? Either way, it sounded pretty nice. I hope this collection works out for her.
Peace and be wild!

20 days in London

Or could it be your girlfriend
Who never ever been straight
When I ask U, Are U hungry?
U say, U already ate


I have the song in my head, but can't remember the name or where it's from. Can you guys help out?

Yep, she kinda does sound like Prince and then again kinda not. I'm sure he's giving her lots of support though. Funny but I don't see her "friends" definitely not Eric B. am I blind or something? Does she have 2 pages, and I only found 1, what?

I really liked Rock or Roll as soon as I heard it. I don't know, it sounds VERY Princely to me. If that's not him singing with her, she is doing a FANTASTIC job of sounding like her brother. She's has the Prince vocal inflections down pat.

Best wishes for success to her - personally and professionally.

The songs r cool but it's obvious that it's her imitating Prince's voice: c'mon, don't u think she'd SAY it if it really was Prince???

soooo I logged into myspace and to my suprise I got a friend request from Tyka Nelson (for all those who don't know this is Prince's sister)

sooo ummm yeah I went thinking it was fake but it seems pretty real since it does have her music and pics...kinda iffy on whether or not i like her musical material that is supposed to come out soon which will be gospel music. However as I was listening it seemed like Prince may have had a hand in production possibly and it strangely sounded like he was singing in the background or something eek ...i heard they had some problems in the past so if he did help out it would be great to know they have patched things up...any orgers got any further info about this project

Here is a link to her myspace btw if you want to attempt be friends with her
http://www.myspace.com/ne...roductions



That's really cool! cool

Yeah the more you listen to it the more you get used to it. Then you finally realize that it's not Prince, it just her. You can hear it better with headphones and tell that Prince is not in there!

I don't think it's an imitation. I think she really does sound like him. They *are* full brother and sister.

actually she's not trying 2 sound like him at all, just so happens they have both - same parents. and by the way they are the only 2 out of the children who do, so that says what....perhaps they would sound alike a bit naturally, not to say that means u would, but just so happens they do. u have 2 know them personally, as they really do sound a bit and act a bit alike...

I really don't think she is trying to sound like Prince but is having fun with the fact that by sounding like herself some may think that it's Prince. Tyka obviously has a wide vocal range and several different voices like an expensive keyboard. "Save the World" and Rock Roll wit cho" are dangerously great songs
and need to be heard and supported.
Tyka's talents can make a lot of todays artist think twice.

She says:

"Before I sing...I pray...I open my mouth, and the sound you hear, is what comes out. I have always tried to be original, so if I sound like anyone else, that is not my intent.

However to sound like someone, whom I love and owe so very much to, would be an honor."

It's funny how many of the comments say, "This reminds me of Prince"--I think they really don't know it's his sister.

The song "Save the World" almost sounds like a duet with Tyka and Prince. They both use that raspy falsetto at times and she transitions to her natural voice so effortlessly from it. That is why I think she isn't trying to sound like Prince. Of course her mega-star older brother would be an influence.
