Wow. Thanks for sharing this article. Interesting, indeed. She is an incredible talent. I can't wait to hear the track, with and without Prince's input. I just know that he took it to the next level.

His performance of "Green Garden" was a highlight of the Detroit show a couple years back, I thought.

Laura Mvula was not one of his protégés. Her song Green Garden was one of Prince's purple picks of the week.

By Definition SHE Surely was guided suported and encouraged by him...

If you read the links in this thread and google a little bit you will see that he was very much behind her...

QUOTE FROM THE LINK

“I sent him Overcome that I’d done with Nile Rodgers and he replied immediately: ‘This is killin’, I want to be on this song’”

Laura Mvula

“By this time, Jon Scofield and Nile had done their parts, and it was mixed and mastered.

“I told him there were already two legends on there and he said he didn’t care, he wanted to play on the song as well.

“So he did his own mix of Overcome with a new part.”

Still coming to terms with Prince’s shock death, Laura doesn’t know what to do with his recording of the track.

She said: “I feel like I want to keep it to myself for ages. But I will probably put it out there when the time is right, when the album has had space to breathe.

“He was so excited about what I was doing. He was always very helpful, and supportive. It was an incredible friendship.”

Thank you for sharing. I had not heard of her. I am listening to some of her remix snippets on soundcloud now. Overcome (Royce Wood Junior Mix) sounds deep funky especially. Like!
