    A couple of weeks ago it dawned on me that I didn't have any MJG on my mp3 player. I have some Amazon.com free music points so I purchased "Boys." :-)

    I think they were supposed to be Rick James's answer to Vanity 6, except they can actually sing.

    I was a beast last month with the Vitamin Water bottlecap free downloads via Amazon.

    Anyway, yeah... did Prince ever get behind a female singer who could sing?

    Heh! I think I've been spending waaay too much time on Facebook, as I was looking everywhere for the "like" button.

    Does producing a track or two Patti Labelle count? :p

    Well, at least The Time had some success. Where's Rick's Process & the Do Rags these days?

    Okay, forget them. I wonder what the Mary Jane Girls are doing these days....

    ^ Okay, so he knows what a good singer sounds like.

    Now explain Jill Jones, Taja Sevelle and Carmen Electra.

    ^Yeah, he does love the beautiful ones. :-)

    I saw Jill Jones at the Ritz (NYC) YEARS ago. (I think she was on the bill with Level 42, or maybe it was Billy Preston?) I don't remember how she was, though. :-/

    I haven't heard Bria Valente. When Prince was on Tavis Smiley's show he (Prince) seemed a bit excited that she was going to be on the following night.
