Ladycab Driver (dirty version)

Is this Jill Jones moaning in this version ? what is happening there ? did Prince ever explain it ? Sounds like a rape scene.

What other version is there? And while it's true that Prince distastefully used rape in his lyrics a couple of times in this era, I think you're reaching to say that this track evokes it.

There is a clean version of the song as well.

No it's not rape, when I first heard the song too I became incredibly uncomfortable by that part cause it sounded like it. But the song is awesome. After listening to it in my headphones a couple of times , you can hear Jill (or whoever it is) Say Yes at least once. so he's just giving her a really good time 😂😂

More details please: Where was it released? How long is it? How does it differ?

I never got the impression from Lady Cab Driver that the sequence in question was supposed to eummulate a rape scene

If a man is considered guilty
For what goes on in his mind
Then give me the electric chair
For all my future crimes"
