Who's Prince's Dad arguing with on Cream (N.P.G. Mix)

"Cream (N.P.G. Mix)" at the end of the song, is that really P's dad arguing with the caller...if so, freaking hilarious.

Second, who is he arguing with?

Yeah, Some guy they call pretending to be doing a survey about Prince & NPG.
He try's to tell them he doesn't have time, but they keep pressuring him. They tell him he's wasted 2 seconds by explaining that he can't talk.

Was listening to it this morning.

Ya know, "Get Some Solo" is really nice (hadn't heard it in awhile) and I love the "Ethereal Mix"

You mean Hayward Baker ? I don´t know if it was him, gotta listen to it again, but I do remember that I really liked the guitar playing on Get Some Solo, Clockin the Jizz and the Get Wild Moneymaker Mix.I love that style.

The story about Sonny seeing an UFO at the end of the Gett Off videocollection was also hilarious. lol

Phone Conversation #1

Hello

Uh yes

Well then I guess U'll do just fine, um...

Um, listen I-I don't have time right now

Oh this will only take a quick second
Do U know of Prince and the New Power Generation?

Look, I, uh, I wish I could, uh spend some time, but I...

Oh please sir, just give us a few seconds

No, I'm, I'm just on my way out the door, I'm... (Come on)

Phone Conversation #2

Hello?

Good evening, how are U this evening?

Not bad, who's this?

Um, I'm doing a survey, do U listen 2 the radio?

Yeah

And do U know of Prince and N.P.G.?

Sure, Prince, Prince uh, Prince uh, eh-Rogers?
Oh yeah yeah, I know, I raised him, yeah
Wh-what about him?

Ok, um, have U heard the new single "Cream"?

Yeah, I've heard it

U, U like the song?

No

U don't like it?

No, I don't like anything Prince has ever done

And why is that?

Because it's 2 dang immoral, the message is the same
There's no variety
They're all, all, every song, every song he's ever
The same message, it's all sex sex sex
Sends the wrong message 2 younger people
U know, sex, drugs and limousine music
Children grow up battered
They grow up despondent, desolate and unwanted

I guess U have a personal problem then, right?

No, I don't have the personal problem
Seems like U have one if that's...

No, U do, nigga what's wrong with U?

Who, who is U, nigga?
U got a problem

What, what kind of life do U live?

I didn't call U...

I thought that was Prince doing his usual "voice" thing ala Mowwis Day.
Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind.
