P ganked two songs of his and gave him "credit" on the label for other unrelated ones...

but yeah, I think Jesse didn't get the worst of it (Jimmy Jam reportedly did, out of that bunch), because he threatened Prince a lil bit; Morris was the one who found him out in Rock Island, he didn't even play anything for Prince to get in the band, then it turned out he was a monster on the axe...

and you know that a dude looking like Jesse, with his general demeanor, playing the guitar like that in that era, probably was pissin' off Prince on the low for other reasons... LOL
