That song is so on point.

I wouldn't compare it to "Call My Name" at all. Other than the fact that its R&B.

BTW, you're welcome for the link everybody!

Thanks for the link! Even though I'm not a fan of the song on first listen, I always appreciate the opportunity to listen to Prince's music.

Didn't Call My Name win a Grammy ?

The Black Eyed Peas also have won Grammys. I believe "My Humps" even won one.

damn i only caught the last bit, where he's talking about i'll take
you anywhere you want paris, london, africa etc.

i suppose that's just the ending since i didn't hear to much singin
going on, lol.

right?

great drum track!

Right I wouldn't either, just that they're both in the R&B vein, Call My Name sounds like old school R&B wheras Future Baby Mama sounds more contemporary with vintage Prince touches, linn drum sounds, great vocals, I can see this getting good r&b airplay on the radio 2day. I like this song!!!

You can tell Prince has noticed all the latest artist paying homage to his 80's sound cause that's what this song reminds you of. It just sounds fresher. Like he's showing them how to take that style to the next level.

Cool! Thanks for the heads up. I caught it and uh, recorded it, so I can hear it again and again and be just a little like Murph..

It's a very cool track. Reminds me of "I Hate You", but I like it better, it's more 60's R&B and I think will be a pretty big hit on R&B AC radio here. Now I know not to listen to European reviews. This track is hawt! But, yes, very American sounding and also sounds like something Prince could have easily done in the early 80's. His voice sounds nice n smooth (not a day over 29).

Oh, and the DJ said he'd play it again and again.

First of all, that ain't right.

Secondly, "Call My Name" and "Reflection" are the only two means of greatness that keep me coming back to that album.

But diversity is what makes the world go around and what helps me learn from others.

So keep on listening.

Yeah, I see your point. It is more contempary. It's like prince showing people he can still ball, you know?

I really dig his falsetto on this. His voice sounds crystal clear.

Not to often a song by Prince hit's the radio BEFORE it's leaked here.

Yeah, it's a definite switch. Really, it seems like a lot is different with this project...and I say that with a smile on my face.

bsmooth732001 said:

I caught the end and really like it! Definitely an Eye Hate U vibe. If the rest of the album is like this, I think I am going to be very pleased. Seems like Prince has found his sound again...not to say that his other new stuff isn't his sound. But, there is something about this that just feels like natural Prince again...not forced or contrived. So far, I am very pleased with what I have heard.

it ended

it's not like Call my name. It's better

I'd relate it to Somebody's somebody or Man o war

its nice. i dont know about all this talk about "classic" tho.
