Is this a fake boot?

It's so horrible!

yeah it's real, he put music to her lyrics, don't know how it got leaked. I kind of like it. He sampled the hell out of her "Dead like Elvis", "Hold on to Your Wigs" and of course what ended up on "Joint 2 Joint".

"It's Our Music" is fab!

Who is "she?" I was wondering what those two samples were from on Face Down. I don't really get it.

I'm not an hip-hop fan...but some lyrics of her are good! But the vox is annoying!

Uh... care to enlighten the rest of us?

Give God A Try has a cool little backing track.

She's a talented rapper, definately. I love all the songs he sampled her on... Face Down, Joint 2 Joint, Days of Wild, Right Back Here In My Arms.... I'm sure there were more as well!

I heard she was a fan who handed Prince a rough demo after a concert... or something like that?

I actually really like those outtakes. I don't know why they get as much flak as they do. Sure, an albums worth might not have worked, but it's great hearing Prince trying out new contexts and styles.

I enjoyed those tracks too , and it was interesting to hear certain lines in the tracks that Prince would lift to chuck into "Right back here in my arms" ( thats my only mission ) , face down ( dead like elvis ) etc , its a cool insight into how Prince listens to other peoples music and absorbs elements for himself and his work .

P played the music on those trax so on this occasion it was hardly a case of lifting "other people's music". But I guess Jamie Starr is a thief most of the time
