Zapp Itchin for Twich did Prince produce this?

Listening to Zapp and this joint came on. I swear this is a Prince jam all day. IS this a hommage or did PRince himself do it? This maybe the best copy cat job known to man.

Written and arranged by Terry, produced by Roger.

You prbably know this, but the influence also goes both ways, with Prince being referenced in 'It Really Doesn't Matter', Zapp playing support act for Prince on tour, Prince playing 'More Bounce To The Ounce in soundchecks etc..

See earler threads, for example:

On the 4th Zapp album, Roger experimented with sounds other than the heavy funk of the first 3 albums. He incorporated some stuff that was hip around 85/86, like the mpls sound... on the 4u album, this seemed to work, but on the later Zapp/Roger albums, the real Zapp vibe was missing more and more

written and produced by Roger. he credited it to his brother for some reason. Roger did all the instruments and his brother played drums
