Glam Slam 91' VS Get Off

Just got finished listening 2 Glam Slam 91' and I have 2 say it's awesome, but I had a question for some of u prince geeks out there lol...

I noticed how in Glam Slam 91' Prince raps the word he did from get off. The words are basically the same, its a little bit different which got me 2 wondering, which one Prince did first... Glam Slam 91' or Get Off?

I know Prince has a different version of Get of on the New Power Generation maxi single, I'm not aware if there's another of Get Off I never heard of...

Does anybody have any info on this?

I think Glam Slam 91 was recorded first. I'm sure it was recorded some time in'90. I might be wrong tho...

Ya, GS'91 came first.

It's a bit nasty isn't it! But interesting from the POV that he tends to pick bits from songs and re-use them.

I'm a sucker for a major chord

The song, 'Get Off' was placed on the proposed 10-track 'New Power Generation' maxi-single in September 1990.

The song, 'Glam Slam '91' was recorded in late October 1990.

The song, 'Gett Off', which borrowed only slightly from 'Get Off', and more significantly from 'Glam Slam '91' was recorded in May, 1991.
