The Ball/Life O' The Party

Awright, this ain't a this or that kinda thread.

Just to let you know I have looped the beat of Life O' The Party and whenever I play that beat, I hear The Ball.

Imagine Prince, making the audience scant BALL! over that beat and then to hear him sing;

Check it out if U want 2
Listen 2 a brand new sound
Peachy beat and harmony
Shake your body down
No time 4 attitudes
No, we don't wanna fight
All I wanna do is get yo' peachy stuff
And have some fun 2night ...

The beat to 'the Ball' is the same structure as the beat to 'Eye Know'. I've recreated that beat and used it as the core of something I did back in '95, so I know the loop very well.

Eye Know! ha ha.

But did you know that the percussion on 'Play in the Sunshine' is very similar to 'In a Large Room with No Light'?

The flash light also should have been a dead give away.

I hear "The Ball" in "Life O' The Party" very strongly as well. So when some individuals say the song reminds of hiphop to them I really don't understand where they are coming from.
