This song was written about Carmen Electra, who was a Prince protégé for a short time. He gave her this stage name.

Slave. This is the period when he changed his name to a symbol and was at odds with Warner brothers because he wanted the rights to his masters. He compared the music industry to a plantation with artist being slaves. He continued his fight for artist rights until he died. It’s rumored Prince was referring to Carmen Electra in this song but who knows.

It was about Carmen. She said he gave the song to her after they split and told her it was about her.

U are right about that, but he also had issues with WB over the pace he was releasing his music. WB wanted 2 take some time, he wanted 2 put it out basicly the moment he finished recording it. If u look back at his albums chronologically, he had a release practically every calender year(esp his 80's and 90's output) WB wanted him 2 slow down, but he felt differently.

Great reaction KeyMC! It says “Slave” on his cheek. This is during the time when he was having a dispute over ownership of his work with his record company. He responded by writing “Slave” on his face to represent him being a slave to the record industry. He would then go on to change his name for the same reasons as well as others. This song was written about Carmen Electra, one of his protégés and his girlfriend at the time. I heard that after they split he got in touch with her and gave her this song and told her that it was about her. You should check out “Prince - Baby I’m a Star (Live, Syracuse, 1985)(Official Video)” posted by his KZitem channel! It is incredible. You won’t be disappointed!!! Or his music video for “Betcha By Golly Wow” They are both great!!

Wtf are you talking about? The NPG is all over his albums from 91-96, the Revolution is on at least half of Purple Rain...yes on his first 5 albums he played the majority of instruments, but since then he has used his band members on the albums, even if just a little.

Prince and the NPG, Prince and The Revolution was the NAME OF HIS BANDS. That doesn't mean they were in the studio during every session. Listen, fk you people. I'm not going to argue with a bunch of simpletons. While you're on here, just go listen to the interviews of his former band members who said that this man was always in the studio making new music, even while on the road. New songs, that they always had to end up learning something new. The BATDANCE album was all Prince, but because it's Prince and the NPG, that suddenly means him and the band did all the music? Really? OMG!!!! So the music of "Pussy Control" was done by him AND the NPG? LOL. ya, okay. WOW! Prince played 27 instruments, buddy. TWENTY SEVEN. He didn't have to wait for a band to produce music which is why he was able to create so many songs.

@@darkghoulrecords "the Revolution is on at least half of Purple Rain" NEGATIVE. Why do you think Susan was all bent out of shape when the Revolution took to tour after Prince's death?

As others said, Slave as he said he was a slave to WB because they owned his master recordings even though he made the music and unlike other artists. He did them mostly on his own. Mayte also wasn’t his wife then, although they were together. The song was written for Carmen Electra though. He was kinda juggling a few women then. Mayte, Carmen and Nona were all around during this time.

Carmen was frustrated that Prince had become fascinated with Mayte…She started going out , partying with guys in Minnesota. See when your a Prince girl, you sit at home and wait for him 😁…and Prince found out. He brought Carmen into the studio, played this tape for her and sent her back to LA on on midnight flight . That’s the story and Carmen has repeated it. He felt betrayed by her and trust was broken.

It says "slave" he was protesting the record company not selling his masters to him. He could re-record to his heart's content, but not own his own original recordings. He basically fought for all artists' rights to buy their own music. Also he says "I hate you so much I want to make love - until you see." Also, if you want funny, you should do a review on Fine Young Cannibals "She Drives Me Crazy" and then listen to the Prince/Aresenio Hall parody of that "The Ho Is Lazy" under the artist name of Chunky A.
