Sheila E.: "[Lemon cake was] one of his favorite things that we would share in the studio"

https://www.billboard.com...ake-prince

.

The Grammy- and Emmy-nominated percussionist says inspiration for the song goes back to when she and Prince first started recording in the studio. In addition to appetizing meals, Prince’s then-chef would bring the pair desserts and snacks like chocolate cake, cookies and popcorn.

.

“One day I mentioned to him that I make a good chocolate and lemon cake,” recalls Sheila E. “His response was, ‘Oh, I didn’t know you cooked.’ I said, ‘Of course I do. My mom being Creole and my dad Mexican, I better know how to cook.’ The next day I baked a lemon cake. It was love at first sight and one of his favorite things that we would share in the studio.”

I just heard her new single “Lemon Cake”.It just premiered on SiriusXM (on “The Groove”.It’s a fun little song...a different style for Sheila.
