So what? If your aim is to say that, therefore, there is a big conspiracy among everyone involved to try and justify the single or save their own reputation, as if anyone on Earth cared and the whole music business would blacklist them just because one mixed, and the other did the art, of a single that most of the world forgot, it's utter nonsense and even more since anyway these people had no creative input in the project itself and were just doing what their boss, Prince, told them to do.

No offense, I don't want to start a fight with you and I won't, but you start to sound like a creationist, a no-moonlander or a flat earther who, no matter what evidence is presented to them, will deny them and stick to a reasoning that is based on nothing but their own irrational intuition. You had an intuition that was based on very little, now we have enough solid elements to dismiss it. It happens to everyone to be wrong, it's happened to all of us countless times on this board. Just back off. Please.
