Family Name, Avalanche, When Will We b Paid all covered the topic. Prince fans had a lot to say, especially the first two so if you expected it to be an issue you were spot on.  Glug, glug like a mug | |

True, just saying he chose to record it, thus hinting at some attachment to the song's sentiment. Glug, glug like a mug | |

the song would be misunderstood, lambasted and prince accused of being a racist and/or anti-semite himself | |
