who's Prince talkin bout in "The Exodus Has Begun"

Does anyone know if Prince is talking about anyone in particular here? For the longest I thought it was Rosie Gaines.

From "The Exodus Has Begun"

Oh yeah, U can sing
But what the fuck are U complainin' about baby?
Oh yeah, I will read your big ass
Cuz I think U're thinkin' about readin' me
And when the people ask U everywhere
Is that really all your hair?
Tell'em U don't tell a lie
Bald-headed son of a motherfuckin' housefly

hmm...never really thought of it before but...the last line you quoted leads me to believe he's talkin' bout a guy.
his brother perhaps? he mentions his brother being bald on Rave too..just guessing though.
