It's Prince. This song was originally written for Morris Day.

I think you mean D'Angelo, it says in the Crystal Ball booklet that he said it was his favourite bootlegged song.

As for sounding the like the Time, I dunno, I could hear Morris singing it, it's obviously tongue in cheek - but fits in with Morris' narcisstic persona, and remember it was recorded around the time of the release of Parade/UTCM, which I guess is where the inspiration comes from - it could be Morris or Christopher singing, they are both Prince-made characters.
