Morris Day and the Time was created by Prince. He wrote the lyrics, the music and played all the instruments for The Time. The band was put together before the 1999 tour which was headlined by Prince which was his album title. Vanity 6 opened...Prince created them, their music and look as well. Prince used a pseudo name for all the music he produced and wrote for other artists at that time. He used Alexander Nevermind, Joey Coco, Jamie Starr and more. He was like no other.💜

They are, however, one the baddest groups EVER on their own!!! Yes, Jungle Love and The Bird are two of their most well-known joints, but there was no KZitem for My Drawers, Ice Cream Castles, 777-9311, The Walk or Gigolos Get Lonely Too. The moves they do while playing or singing are also Prince-inspired. He told them, you can't just play your instruments, you got to move with it. It's like the Temptations as a full-on band.
