  • @veeseee128 OH YES I DID! What are you talking about? Honestly do you know anything about music? Not tryin to be disrespectful but it doesn't sound like it to me. Fact: Rick James was known as the King of Funk. Fact: Back in the day Prince opened for Rick James. Fact: Rick James NEVER opened foor Prince. Fact: I have NEVER heard ANYONE until now call Prince music Punk Funk. If someone told you that they gave you some very bad info...

  • rick was good but he didnt blow up like prince. prince took punk funk to the next level.

  • @veeseee128 ??? Prince has never been Punk Funk. Prince is more Rock than anything else. And besides Rick James was the King of Funk. And a King is much higher than a Prince...

  • The music sounds like "it Must Be Magic" especially the bass.

  • @rufus317 Well since this came out first then I guess Must Be Magic has to sound like this...

  • @BIGROB80 no, thyere hard to find because they dont make them anymore because they dont sell. Prince sells sou will see his stuff everywhere. Bustin outl L seven is out of Print because its not a big seller.

  • @veeseee128 Rick James is the KING OF PUNK FUNK! Prince was a bit funk but more like pop funk, Rick was the real deal more SOUL more FUNK more Street more impact! Prince compared to MJ is on a POP standard not Funk, overall Rick James> than Prince. Prince is overrated you can buy his cd's on ebay for pennies, try buying Bustin outt L7,Throwdown,Glow, Cold Blooded, The Flag, Urban Rhapsody on ebay you won't find it for less than $30.00! That's how great and collectible the sound of Rick James is!

  • @veeseee128 Ok... now this is funny because "Punk Funk" was something that Rick James came up with and nobody else called their music like that. Prince is considered as the creator of so called Minneapolis Sound, sometimes called also as Minneapolis Funk. And that's how it is

  • wow, this song .....brought back so many memories....great album...1979....

  • Now dis is real shit here listen 2 that guitar part in this song ...rick james was a pure musical genius ... He was hard core punk funk 4 sure

  • I can picture grace jones dancin to this on stage with rick.
