We have seen the most talented so whose the least. they must have been in Prince's groups at one stage, no members of Vanity 6 please.
My big four are Wally Safford, Greg Brooks (Baboons that dance)
Kirk Johnson (a gameboy) but the winner has to be

Tony M, his slipshod rapping killed off the credibility of the New Power generation.



Diamond And Pearl.....i dont know why they were there...however the Twinz were a much better upgrade
Straight Jacket Funk Affair
Album plays and love for vinyl records.

I've seen Mayte's name here a few times now, but while she's certainly not a singer, she actually is a darned skilled dancer. Prince just didn't use her very well.

everybody you listed certainly qualify, but even though i love him to death hands down it has to be Jerome Benton.

I mean he was in The Family because of.....


Oh My God , perish the thought. I'd die without Jerome. Remember, The Time was half about the music, half about the attitude, and what did Jerome have if he didn't have attitude, while still being fun and likeable and crazy. Always admired how he's able to slip between the Prince and Flyte Tyme camps with no probs. (For instance, he did the "Diamonds" video AND "Under The Cherry Moon," in that era.) See, everybody loves him!

Tony M.

I still haven't forgiven Prince for "GoldNigga."


I nominate Tony M too. But I take issue with you over Goldnigga. I think it was a pretty good album

Jerome was at least entertaining, Mayte was just annoying IMO shrug.



I agree and no one can swizzle a mirror like that at Morris (Jungle Love in Purple Rain).

Lets see Jerome, sang, he acted, he danced, he gofered, he had a charisma and probably had a very CLOSE relationship with Prince and Mo'is.

What did Mayte do, shake her ass and Marry Prince

What did Wally and Greg do, dance badly in a tuxedo



Oh I think you're being a bit harsh, Gregory Allen Brookes had a strong and distinct backing vocal voice that meshed well with the others, with Prince everyone is there for a reason and particularly when the looks are seemingly lacking you know there's more to it.

I second the notion! Carmen and T.C. Ellis were poor choices to represent Paisley Park Records. Why Prince, why?
