The Story of Camille [PFUnk Response Track]

In response to Prince's new track "PFUnk", I came up with this funky, odd little response song. I simply took some of the official "Camille story" from the Lovesexy tourbook (correct me if I'm wrong as to where the story came from... am only 19 so wasn't around the the era) and turned it into a spoken word/rappish type jam. It's worth a listen, I think, and who knows, maybe the man himself will give it a spin wink

My position on the subject is simple... Camille originated in bad times for Prince and was one of his many alter egos he used to let out the bad/dirty/angry side of him at times. It's interesting to note that the new song has a Camille effect on his voice... perhaps an indication that he is once again going through bad times, or simply whippin out Cam' for some well needed sass. I think P has every right to do what he's doing, I mean it IS his image afterall... I'm with the brotha through thick and thin, so don't think of this as a "diss" to him.. more of a reminder that if he's resorting to Camille, thing may not be too great in the purple world...

Just thoughts, resulting in a cool song.



Lemme know what you guys think...

I like the alter ego of Prince's that wears leather and lace on Saturday night, cause, "I guess that makes it alright!" and then wakes up...every Sunday morning bright. cool

That was funky man, loved the guitar and percussion especially

That was awful. You sound more like a retarded alien than Camille and the instrumentation and looping was inredibly dull and boring.

Dude, this sounds like a nursery rhyme, B+ on production, D- on vocal arrangement and (I'm not really sure whats its about to comment on the lyrical content) overall good attempt

I'm pretty sure he's just using GarageBand loops. :/
