Prince - "The Boom"

Ummmm..... I just heard on a blog a song I've never heard: "The Boom" - it sounded like a came out as the same era as Gold/Exodus, and alot of sounds/music that were sampled in released songs came in here....

What is it?? Never heard of it!

It's a Poet 99 outtake. Prince sampled a lot of her stuff that he worked on with her in the mid-90s

I don't think we ever really knew the backstory of this collaboration, why it failed to be finished while Prince was obviously in love with Ninety-9's rap and lyrics.

It also seems that she never ever did anything else, as I could never find a trace of her or her music online (now I'll admit that I didn't search too hard, but nothing obviopus pops-up on Google). There's a single on Discogs, though, but not sure if it's the same gal: http://www.discogs.com/artist/Ninety-9

The outtakes make a nice, demo-like but nice nonetheless, EP.

I hope we learn more about it someday.

She had a single out in the late 90's called Willow. It's a nice track. Jo Whiley championed it in the Uk on radio 1 & interviewed her. It got a bit of airplay.

There was at least 1 other different song on the CD single and (I think) a remix. I have the single somewhere in a pile of boxes.

It's the one from Discogs linked above, interesting to have confirmation it's her indeed. I'll have to put my hands on this someday smile

It's quite nice, from what I remember. Sort of lazy, laid back chorus about a willow tree. smile

Edit. Just checked, and the track's available to listen to on Spotify if you use it.
