up until last week.. i honestly had no idea Prince originally sang/wrote this..

Me neither. Can you imagine the greatness that is still buried in Prince's vault?

 

[Rollie Forbes]

Prince did all those Time joints.

It was Prince's way of putting out and keeping his black sound, while he was pushing the Revolution into a pop and mainstream direction.

Genius move.

that new Singles album is a dope little history lesson for alot of folks..

i been listening to dude since forever, and had no idea he had written most of those songs.. then again, being the younger me- i wasnt too interested in who was writing, or produced majority of the music i listened to..

 

[Cat piss martini]

people will never truly know how
evolved Prince was musically.
he was a post human.
we wont have another for hundreds of years.

 

[Rollie Forbes]

wow.. I never knew Prince did it originally......

Yo @Cat piss martini what was Jesse Johnson reason for going SOLO was that his decision or Prince influenced him?

It's a shame that Jesse Johnson isn't more widely known. Breh has some JAMS in his solo catalogue, he's worked with a lot of other dope artists, and he still makes music.

Tell me this song ain't funky, and I'll fight you!

Prince had the vision but Morris
Leonardo da Vinci'd that shyt.

These young nikkas just don’t know

Morris day was a true playa from tha Himalayas!!!!

Word. That album even has different versions of songs that I knew Prince wrote for other people (Nothing Compares 2 U).
It almost seems like Prince didn't do anything except make music & bone bad bytches.

Jesse is my personal favorite out of the family.

Somebody said it in some random thread a while back. Hell, he could be Morris Day for all we know.

That would be a trip

Pretty much, and play basketball. He loved basketball too.

Vanity 6 was all Prince. Sheila E, etc.

Manic Monday by the Bangles.

Feel for You by Chaka Khan cover.

Not to mention all the underground released joints in the Vault.

He created fast,very prolific. And from 1980 to about 1987, he was in a zone, creatively.

Or Denver.

Or San Antonio

Jesse is my personal favorite out of the family.

So many legends are in the family...
Sheila E,
Jesse Johnson,
Rosie Gaines,
The Time--->
Morris Day,
Jellybean Johnson,
Jimmy Jam,
Terry Lewis,
Alexander O' Neal,
---,
Sheena Easton,
Larry Graham,
George Clinton,
Vanity,
Little Tevin Campbell,
The Family (not really legends, but still dope),
Mikki Free,
Chaka Khan,
and so many others.

Just off the top of my head, that's a lot of talent attached to one man!

 

[Rollie Forbes]

Or Denver.

They wanna be like Compton.

All prince wanted to do was make music and hoop every now and then. Music was his career but he even did it for fun too
