At 00:23 in the song '3121', you can hear Prince saying "...From the Lotusflow3r..."

I recognized the sample being used in '...Back 2 the Lotus' from the Lotusflow3r album.

Some songs off Lotusflow3r have been recorded during the 3121 sessions in 2006, so that explains it. Still I thought it was very cool.

Maybe this is old news, but I didn't notice it before.

Who told you that? Prince samples "I Wanna Be Your Lover" and "Controversy" in "My Name Is Prince", but we know those songs aren't from the same sessions.

i think this was discussed b4.. but anyway... yea i think i read somewhere that PE and lotusflow3r both have songs from the 2006 3121 session

ernestsewell said:

I believe i read that sessions for tracks like 3121, Wall Of Berlin, Colonized Mind and From/Back 2 the Lotus were recorded in 2006 by Prince, Michael B. and Sonny T.

Nice

Mr goodnite is probably from 2006 cuz he says 3121 in the song.

"The Wall Of Berlin" phrase should have also given it away that these songs (cd's) were done (created, maybe not recorded) during the same time frame

And Partyup!

So essentially you are saying, if this is true, that he is still grabbing stuff from the vault every now and then; even when these albums are presented as 'new'.

I always thought he was saying something like "From the Love Below.."

Pulling a card from Andre 3K or something.

I think he does that all the time. Rework themes, use unfinished tracks. He probably records a lot. He can always go back to those recordings, even years later.

hello...been doin that since graffiti bridge

its as if prince is trying to make a connection, linking in each album.do you think he is doing this on purpose?

If the purpose is to get us buying records every year for thirty years...his scheme is working.
