Great find Latin. Wish IC could have convinced P to branch out into film. Don't know if you've seen the film Whiplash, but with P playing the part the JK Simmons did.....it would have taken on a very different dimension. The physical intimidation would have been lessened but the mental intimidation would have been more intense.

Style is the second cousin to class

Wow. I never knew that Prince worked with Cube. Yet another young artist that he gave a break, this time allowing Ice Cube to stretch beyond his rapping and acting to actually directing a video. Now, he's a film mogul. BTW, Cube is a great storyteller. Thanks, Latin. heart

I really want to see the "Love Sign" video, but, so far, I haven't been able to find it.

Around early to mid 90's Prince played Ice cubes music prior to coming on stage - at least he did in the UK

The only thing I can find is a Soul Train lip stnch deal featuring P in what I consider his worst "look".
My phone won't show me the link but it's easy to find.

ah, yes, it's not on youtube, no. it might be up again in a few days and get taken down etc etc.

you never know where these vidz pop up next. let's hope we'll get an extensive dvd set with all
the official videos and a lot of unreleased ones, in the future.
