With Prince producing for 3 of his closest musical associates (Larry Graham's "Raise Up", Andy Allo's "Superconductor" and Shelby J's next record), it would be cool for Prince to resume his career as a producer. Especially this late in his career. It is arguable that, his best stuff this year has came from his contributions to the work of his friends. I would love for him to do some stuff with D'Angelo or work with a rock band.

Cool. I'm going to try to catch the show and happy she has an album coming out
I'm sure with Anthony on any of her songs combined with her own talent, that it will be an album worth checking out. Shelby and Anthony have that natural, Aretha, Nina Simone, Bill Withers' type of soul that you can't buy at the candy
store.

i think it was supposed to happen 2 years ago, but then andy allo happened and prince

pushed the shelby project to the back burner.

wasn't this song mentioned a long time ago? i think i even heard it somewhere. did she

sing it live yet? during one of prince's shows? i know i've heard it before, i'm sure.

anywho.

here's to hoping that prince is actually recording some shit for himself too inbetween all

these sessions with/for others. i want that new prince album already, damn.

ah, yes, here's what princevault has on the song:

North Carolina is an unreleased track recorded in the studio in late 2010 during recording sessions for Shelby J.'s first solo album (announced as Just Shelby in March, 2012, and at that time planned for release in Autumn, 2012), most likely at Paisley Park Studios, Chanhassen, MN, USA (although this is unconfirmed). Shelby J. was born and raised in Greensboro, North Carolina, and likely wrote the song's lyrics. Additional recording with fellow North Carolina nativeAnthony Hamilton took place in 2011. Prior to its studio recording, however, the song was performed during a live performance session by Prince and his band, including Shelby J. on lead vocals, for French radio station RTL on 12 October, 2009 (matinee), but the song was not broadcast. The song had also been performed in shows months earlier.

They've worked together a few times before. Here they are performing with D'Angelo in 2000.

Two words gurl...Anthony Hamilton! headbang

Personally, I prefer her with him over Prince any day because to my ears their voices just blend better.

The Black Gypsy cd is still my favorite Shelby project although it always gets overlooked around here, lol

Yes, Anthony has that bluesy, soul sound, the kind where you can feel the soul of the song, like Bill Withers and Al Green. I bet Anthony would sound good singing a cover of Bill Wither's track 'Grandma's Hands' or 'Who is He and What is He to You' or Al's ' Love & Happiness'

I'm going to try to tune in at the time the show airs, if it doesn't get too busy at work at the time.

So far Shelby opened with 'When Stars Collide' from Andy's album. My favorite song on the album. Kind of like the type of song of the summer you listen to while driving and leaning back. Was just listening to it before I turned Shelby's station on.

She just played a track from Maceo, didn't hear who she said the singer was in it, but kind of sounded like Shelby. Like the horns. headbang

So far, I'm liking her music selections. I am going to have to check out that Mandisa track. I really liked that one.

Was that the track she played after 'When Stars Collide' from Andy's album?

You know the one with Maceo on it, and I believe that may have been Shelby singing? If that's it let me know I liked the New Orleans sound of it.

I missed the first 20 or so minuts of the show. I forgot about it until I saw Shelby's post on FB. I don't know. lol
