New Power Soul - Who is P referring 2 ?? Firstly...
I dig this album more than most folks in the org, BUT... Who is the woman he (obviously) has a major problem with? I mean, it's clear in Mad Sex, Come On, and at least one or two other cuts, that there's some dumb-actin' ho that P wanted, but realized that she was f%&@$ed. Any ideas? G.

Mayte, I'm guessing. Wasted Kisses shows up on an album shortly after their divorce seems a little too coinsidental to me. | |

Mayte wasn't the only one he was with during that whole time. He was seeing many other women as well, but you couldn't call them girlfriends, if you know what I mean. But, it could have been about anyone of them as well. God, now I'm starting to sound like that queen627 orger.

Mayte is a skank!!! Why did he waste his kisses on her??? All the gals say hoe if your man's giving up the gold. All the fellas say ruff if you're only giving up the bone. | |

Their divorce was way after the NPS album so try again. The One...Mayte | |

I witnessed some stuff before the Electric Factory concert in Philadelphia in March 1998 that leads me to strongly suspect Prince was seeing other women before NPS was released... either that or his bus driver was personally testing out the groupies that night The fact that Prince started the show that night by singing The Ride seemed to be consistent with my suspicions.
Wasted Kisses, btw, seems to be about Mayte and/or Gregory. Sad but true. This is the man who sang "I hate U because I love U" back in 1994. It's definitely possible for Wasted Kisses and The One to be about the same person. No Candy 4 Me | |

Folks said that Mad Sex was about Scary Spice cuz it references pierced tongues and animal prints; and for some reason Come On seemed to conjure up Rhonda Smith in my mind.

Yep, i always assumed Mad Sex was about Scary Spice. Also all the timings fit in with her going to Minneapolis to work on her first album with Jam and Lewis about 8 months or so before NPS came out. References to Scary are the pierced tongue, the animal print, "bird from London", etc | |

it is my understanding that 'come on' is about mayte. i lived in miami in 1999 and mayte had friends and family there. in certain circles gossip spreads faster than a fire in california. supposedly, she was sleeping with another woman and the two of them had an 'open' relationship. the woman was a long time friend and mayte would often fly down to miami without prince to stay at her place. from what i get (especially from the remix version) 'come on' is prince telling her he is not digging this open relationship.
i don't know what kind of truth there is to this. i can say, though, that prince and mayte were in miami a lot...and glam slam was long shut down...and it wasn't just one or two people saying this. | |

The first time I heard "I Love U But I Don't Trust U Anymore," I got the very strong impression that it was about Mayte cheating on him with another woman: "that wasn't your dress you had on, that wasn't your perfume; and what happened to the ring that I gave you, what am I to assume?"
