I'm very curious about this. It sounds like some woman, but during 3:20-3:22 it sounds definitely like Prince This might be silly, but we all know that Prince detuned his vocals in the studio to make them sound like female voice etc..I asked Mayte on Facebook about that, but with no reply (thank you, miss "I-have-pretty-ass-and-therefore-I-don't-have-to-reply" ).

Maybe she doesn't remember?

Anyway...I think it's Prince but I'll have to listen again later and check.

If she doesn't remember, she could replied "I'm sorry, I don't know". But I understand she has not much time for this, so I'll forgive her

I think that Mayte thought "why don't you buy the cd and read the booklet?"

Well - I don't have her cd. My friend does and she said there's credited some unknown woman, but she thinks it's Prince.

From the top of my head, it's Rosie Gaines and Kirky J's sister. She needed a lot of back-up as obviously... she couldn't sing.

But at 3:22 when that voice goes deep it sounds like Prince.

But it's true, she has a great ass and therefore doesn't have to reply.

I couldn't help myself...this is light hearted...but I still mean it...

"Glad She used it to Walk on By."

She's always replied to me.....but then again i don't talk to her about anything to do with Prince.

You're probably right s I'm sure if I'd ask her about anything "non-Prince", she will be very kind.

But her ass is still funkalicious!

zaza said:

yea,its b/c it was a prince question.
if you asked about some of her upcoming projects(bellydancing dvd)
or her other non-prince stuff,im sure she would
have felt more comfortable replying.
just think of how many simple prince questions
she gets asked that end up in the deep end.

Iam looking at my CD of 1800NEWFUNK the back ground vocals r done by
Kathleen Johnson Brandford for "If ilove u tonite"

when she had a myspace account I asked her if the dance was unfluenced by the writer of the song or did she just danced the way the music moved her. In other words did she do dance routine to match the song or did she gear the music and think I think a little hip hop dance would go well with this beat. She replied. Said it actually went both ways. I did not mention Prince by name but it was obvious who I was referring to since we were discussing the years she was in NPG. No biggie. I didn't make it a bug deal and neither did she. I honestly think that after nearly 10 Years she (nor he) spend a lot of tome thinking and avoiding talking about each other.
I always think Prince and Mayte made the cutest couple and it is sad that they as a couple dud not make it. But really now; they are not even the same people anymore.

I think Prince...his woman voice is the best I don't believe credits in the booklet.
