All I know is that my Twitter feed has been going nuts about this song...U and I know this is "GOOD" Prince...Not GOAT PRINCE...But I've stopped looking for THAT Prince a long time ago...Just like I stopped looking for GOAT STEVIE, Paul MAC, GOAT RAKIM, ect....The youngins and people who haven't picked up on a Prince in a minute (or have never wanted to listen to the man) are diggin it...
This is FUN/COOL Prince...I haven't heard FUN/COOL Prince in a while...
And chill with the Wendy and Lisa hype...Let's try to leave the '80s behind, homie...Trust me....I think Prince's legacy is secure without the girls who I respect immensely....But Dirty Mind happened....Controversy happened...1999 happened...Ect....
I think oldschool Prince fans need to stop being that old man screaming "GET OFF MY LAWN..."...This ain't "Jughead"..."U Know" sounds Prince getting contemporary on his own terms....
