Forget Camille, this is the album I want. We know there's more stuff in the vault with this persona because he used it quite often when recording in the studio (see: Cloreen Bacon Skin, Tricky, Chocolate, Do Yourself A Favor, etc). There has to be lots more we don't know about and I want a whole album of it.

Well, it is siad they could have filled at least 6 more CD's to the rim with unreleased studio material for 1999 SDE, but we only got what we got so it wouldn't surprise me there's a lot more material with Jamie Starr on it.

this would be more of a curio.

The problem with that statement is if you just included the protege demos that would account for most of that.

If they mean full songs, then it begs the question why they chose what they chose, and why there's little documentation or leaks relating to the unknown 6+ hours of material. There should be more, but - and songs like Purple Music seem like they must have siblings. I want to believe, but this is the question I've had since they cracked open the Vault.

They chose to release what they had found until then, it wouldn't surprise me they've found more by now. They said they couldn't find the original Raspberry Beret in the vault while a collector sent a sample of it after that official statement form Howe to prove it still existed in a way.
I also think most of the tracks would be the protege released and unreleased tracks with Prince's vocals but also all tracks of 1999 have alternate/extended/unedited versions they could've released.
A extensive write up was done after the press listening sessions for 1999 SDE back then with complete what was missing and samples of still unreleased and unknown tracks, uncut versions and more things that were shared to some.
That they haven't leaked or the write up still hasn't been shared public;ly (by even some who were or are still on here) but only to a few at another place says a lot about how fans don't trust each other I guess.
