Best beat in a Prince song

There's been lots of best basslines and best guitar solos and best lyric threads. I don't recall seeing a "best beats" thread.

Which songs have great drumbeats? Both programmed and live?

Some choices from the top of my head...

Housequake, Shockadelica, Bob George.

The beat in "Slave" is a favorite as well (same as "Ain't No Place Like U").

Funny, as an "old Schooler", I think the best P beat is late 90's!

"Come On" people!
