I almost feel like I shouldn't like this song. I mean ... it's a little silly, right?

Then why does it Funk so hard? It reminds me of something he would have written for Vanity 6. Replace the (kick ass) guitar lick with a synth lick. The live drums with the Linn. Put it out in 1982. Funk.

And the solo? Say what?!?! Too good.

I've gone back to the track a few times. Dig. It.

same here.that bass though

If there was no singing it would rock. The lyrics and vocals render it unlistenable.

Dat bass tho!! Ida rocks the hell out of that song.

This track is actually quite like classic Prince pop/funk b-side type stuff in attitude and groove. I think it's really good.

My thoughts exactly. Musicly it reminds me of Madhouse which is a good thing
But the rap, vocals, chorus I cant handle it, I would rather listen to a Carmen Electra track
I actually had this song last on my playlist yesterday and once it came on i just turned it off

Yes! Nice groove.

I like it too for the same reasons, the vocals are a bit silly but that groove is very funky!

This song is (one of the many) why I love Prince

I like it quite a lot but seems to have had some bad reviews on here

Its fresh and funky

I love this track too! The rap vocals, the funky guitar, bass and groovin' drums. Love the chorus too. Great stuff.

Classic P, would have been perfect on the Vanity6 album.

I dig it

Yes!

This track's on the good side of silly.

Love this cut, a cross between Madhouse and Vanity 6. The vocals work fantastically on this. True.

joke thread ..right?

Yep, reminds me of the Vanity 6 days too. Can't say that I love it, but as a Prince fan, I feel like it's ok.

Welcome. You are now an official member of the Purple Reality Distorsion Field.

One of the one's I don't skip. I love the play on rap, not having to say much and sound good.

I really love that bass, because without it, this song is in the Mr Happy/Jughead, we gets up and Graffiti Bridge level (1/10).

.

With bass its elevated to the Arrogance/The Flow/Everybody loves me/ Solo level (2/10).

.

Seriously I agree with the Peach and Black crew, this is a filler track and a bad one, think of all the better songs that could have gone on like Screwdriver, Da Bourgeoisie, Fall in love 2 nite or liveoutloud.

For me this is the best use of guest rapper in a prince recording EVER!
