I love this song too. It would have been huge if he had released it like he should have.
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

Probably my fav of all time
Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind.

Sorry, in my memory Acknowledge Me was on Come (an album i almost never listen too), but it isnt.

From the eighties albums i know the tracklistings almost out of my head, but when it comes to his material from the nineties and '00's, especially his albums that came after Symbol, i have problems to remember which songs were on which albums, and in which order those albums were released.

Anything else having that same 'problem'? lol

This is a great song, but it could never have been released commercially as is. It would have to be edited down form its original length to a more commercially acceptable length, and would have lost a lot in the editing.

I like it the way it is.

Best Prince rap ever!!!!

"Come on pretty baby, sit your butt on the chair there
And let me run a gender in and out of your hair fair
A gender 4 the morning, noon and night, so prepare there
U could come alone or tell a friend, I don't care bear
This a funky party so U need 2 be open
Givin' up all I need so I don't need 2 be hopin'
And even if we're dealin' with that time of the month
It's 4th and goal and I ain't about 2 punt
Cuz as soon as U be strollin' in your Lagerfeld blazer
U need 2 know how many ways a brother can praise ya
2 bad 4 hell, 2 good 2 let heaven raise ya
And if U wanna see my dream, I need U 4 days and days
Baby doll, can U get the hell away
From that thing U call a man and then we can play
The kind of music that'll make your big butt sway
2 the back, 2 the forth
When it's all said a better brother should be more
Thank the Lord
Huh, 4 a body like that, titties swingin' like a door
Gimme 2 times just 2 thank my Savior
Girl, what can I say, U got the crazy flavor
I'm givin' U plenty propers so U got 2 score
The only one that's gonna make U holler 4 more
Like a whore, I'm yours
Acknowledge me, baby, what are U waiting 4?"

Always loved this song. Couldn't get enough of it. Loved the Soul Train performance of it with Mayte, too. I agree -- I thought it was a hit, too. Love it either way.



Love this song AND that performance - have it on DVD.

Oh what this song could have done for Prince commercially if he had released as a single. It probably would have been a huge hit when he recorded it.

Fuck the funk - it's time to ditch the worn-out Vegas horns fills, pick up the geee-tar and finally ROCK THE MUTHA-FUCKER!! He hinted at this on Chaos, now it's time to step up and fully DELIVER!!

wow, theres a lot of love for this song!

To me it's just his typical 90's shmaltz, it sounded so dated and corny when it was realeased, and even more now.
To me a big chunk of his 90's imput is just plain dorky.
