Hello Blog world! I'm on a stumbling streak...I stumbled upon this wonderful number "Purple Flip" by The Foreign Exchange featuring other artists like ?uestlove and Phonte!! They flipped Prince's song "Take Me With You" into a sweet sweet beat, a download must!
Ahmir "?uestlove" Thompson- Drums, Samples
Nicolay- Fender Rhodes, acoustic piano
Zo!- Korg synth, additional rhodes
Phonte and Carlitta Durand- Vocals
"We recorded this over a month ago specifically for a ?uestlove tribute party dedicated to The Purple One himself. Other than passing it off to a few DJ friends who vowed to keep it on some secret squirrel, "bet you aint up on THIS!" status, no one has ever heard it. In the wake of the incredible loss we suffered on June 25 however, this joint took on somewhat of a deeper meaning.
We decided to share it with our fans not only as a token of appreciation, but also as a way of paying respect to one of our last living musical geniuses.
Let's not wait until tragedy strikes before we show love and gratitude to our heroes, people. Give them their flowers while they live.
One Love,
'Tay and Nic"
