Favorite/Most "Princely" Neptunes-Produced Songs? Britney's "Slave 4 U" leaps to mind for me (VERY Prince-like rip-off/tribute to "Nasty Girl").
And I really enjoyed Kelis's "Milkshake." Any other faves out there? | |

702-"I Still Love You"
When these artists try to emulate Prince with their style/sound then they never go wrong. Look at the Neptunes, Andre 3000, 7 Aurelius, Van Hunt in many ways remind me of him, Martin Luther. Prince is the best person to emulate. Studiotraffic-One of the fastest ways to get payed on the net! | |

Frontin' by Pharrell Williams
The critics were all over this, comparing Pharrell's falsetto to Princes. | |

Snoop Dogg "It Blows My Mind" (not to be confused w/ "Lets Get Blown")
The production minus the drum machine sounds like a Prince production. | |

I think the Neptunes are great when they do songs with women that have a Prince vibe. "Slave 4 U" and "Sugar Honey Iced Tea" are two fine examples already noted. | |

Don't forget TLC's CrazySexyCool album.
Also they have a song called "Get Away" that leaked, very Princey. | |
