PFUnk...old song?

Anyone else think this tune is like a few years old?...circa 2001.

As long as there is other evidence I tend to BELIEVE Prince (and jseven).
Why speculating??

hmmm

i still think it's new. especially since he's pulled out the camille
vocal fx again on "3121" and "song of the heart". this one fits into
both those slots with a bit of "glass cutter" thrown in for an edge.

some of the portamento g-funkish synth sounds are similar to those on black sweat. the drum track also sounds very recent. if i had to guess i'd say it was new, or at least heavily reworked.

I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

Very funky track. I don't buy that he only recorded it the other night though.

DAMN!! Listened to this jam 3x in a row.....If this is what it takes for P to come up with some stuff like this, then he needs to stay mad at his fans more often.

This cut could have easily been on the "Black Album" back in the day. Real bass, screaming wah leads, and "Camille"..this is better than that mess he recently put out ("Planet Earth").

Yeah going out like the Wolves in the first, I think it dates back some maybe early 2000s?

Maybe about his sister?????

I've listened to this song a couple of times. For some reason, I can't shake it was supposed to be on the Emancipation album but was pulled at the last minute to Slave.

I suspect the song was finished very recently, but I don't buy that it was cranked out in, say, the last 36-hour period as a direct response to this current BS. There is no direct reference to anyone or any statements made on any of the involved sites that I'm aware of, and the lyrics in a more general sense seem only to fit a scenario wherein Prince feels folk at large are dissing him... and when exactly has that not been the case?
