FIRST TIME HEARING Prince Lady Cab Driver |REACTION!!! 

And he is playing every.single.one.of.those instruments!. Genius!!! there will never be another one like him. Rest in Paradise Prince💜💜💜

I always say MJ will get you to the prom with a “PYT” but Prince gets you to the Hotel to “Do Me Baby”

You have no idea the volcano hole (not rabbit hole...it's too small) you're about to go down with Prince. If you're going to do this, I suggest you start at the beginning so you can see his growth and genius from the beginning to the end. He played 25+ instruments. Think about what you are listening to, and Prince LAYERING in EACH instrument and vocals (No autotunes), showing the band members his vision and all of them laying down tracks. Absolute GENIUS! Yes...he's doing what you think to the cab driver 🤔!!!!! Peace...Be and Stay Safe!

The girl screaming in the background is what you are thinking.

There was no shame in his lyrics. He meant just what you thought he did. Ive been a Prince junkie since I was 13. Im 55 now!

Bro, do you realize that this is actually Prince playing and recording ALL of these instruments by himself?? He was the BEST.

MJ was for kids, PRINCE was for adults!! I love MJ but PRINCE was on another level...

He taught himself to play 27 instuments. That album was the business.

I need people to realize that this man was serious about the music!!! Not taken seriously as a guitarist but he silence majority of his critics. It's one thing to have a voice but to be able to play all the instruments and not have outside producers and writers .....please stop thinking that him and Michael Jackson were competitors...never...prince was on a whole other level than mike...no disrespect to Mike he was talented in his own right. Prince was ahead of his time with the music.

Prince "Let's Work"

Prince in the last 3 years has become my Top 2 Artists of all time. This dude has so many different sides. He can rap, sing, dance, act, produce, plays over 20 instruments, a master lyricist & he fought for all artists and won to own his masters. This dude is the GREATEST

He has been my #1 since 1979, everyone who knows me personally knows this, there will never be another. He was so genius, laid down each layer of his earlier songs one instrument at a time. I have a small room shrine.

Prince was 23 years old when he cut this album. Played just about every note on every instrument. Genius.

I get so tickled watching very young people listening to the genius of Prince for the first time, I feel bad for them or anyone who never saw him in concert, nobody did it like Prince, nobody 💯💜🕊

Prince was the master of double entendres 😉 you could take this song literally, figuratively, metaphorically, it’s however you want to take it 🤔🧐

Nobody can touch Prince!!!!! I'm jealous you get to discover him with all the work he put out. He was a damn genius! Won't ever be a more talented person with a skill set like he had.

Dude recorded this entire thing (save for JJ moaning it up) on a single goddamn Wednesday (7 July ‘82) There simply will never be another quite like him 💜

I’m all over the Prince reactions! He is FIRE!!!!!! Love seeing people recognize and appreciate the awesome talent that we lost way too soon.

If you think that was racy, you should listen to Darling Nikki, Head, or Sister. Prince was the first person that I'd ever heard get that raunchy. Loved it.

Since you’re on this album,International Lover should be your next one.

I LOVED your face when you realized what was actually happening. Quite a bit of Prince’s music was sexually explicit. Check out Erotic City, DMSR, International Lover, Head or Jack You Off.

It took you a minute to realize he was ..as your generation says... SMASHING... 😂

I used to listen to that album thousands of times .He plays all the instruments!

Prince was just in his own lane!!!

And he would usually record the whole song by himself in the studio playing every part one at a time drums,bass,keyboard and guitar then the vocals now he needed a band live to perform it but 90% of the time he was solo oh yeah he wrote all of his own songs and he produced himself Prince was his own producer

Makes me so happy to see someone learn how amazing Prince is. I remember my moment.

You'd never make it through "Let's Pretend We're Married" Prince is much more descriptive. In fact, you may have to listen to it privately. Prince ain't never been no punk.

A musical genius. My favorite artist. U should check out Adore, Scandalous, & Erotic City.

PRINCE IS A VIBE ALL UNTO HIMSELF! I LOVE watching you young people groove to his musicianship! He's playing all of the instruments!

Prince song “Controversy”…..I was 17 years old when I first heard “Lady Cab Driver”….and I had the same reaction. People only know about the Purple Rain album but TRUE fans loved him every since he step on the scene back in 1977….

The look on your face when you finally got what was going on 😂

Keep listening to Prince to discover a true musical experience 🥰

I had a daughter in 82 , and when she was about 9 months old, she got hooked on Prince and Michael J. She would be sound asleep and I be watching late night videos and as soon as a 1999 song would come on, or a Michael song she would sit straight up in bed and watch the video and as soon as it was finished she would lay right back down and go right back in the sleep mode.

If you are wondering why the views on a lot of his songs is low, it's because when he was alive, he kept all of his music off of RU-vid. This song also was never released as a single. It drives me crazy that a man who has such an extensive music catalog seems to only get played when people want to hear Purple Rain. For true Prince fans, that song is probably not in their top ten greatest songs by him. It's not even in my top 20!

Young man your reaction is priceless and I hope Prince is looking down at that!

I was a pre teen during prince’s prime. This was our coming of age music, especially the 1999 album. It was a double LP and every song was a monster. This was the album that whetted the worlds appetite for prince and set the stage for him to hit us with Purple Rain.

Bro please listen to “international lover” -Prince!!

I remember dancing to every minute of that multiple times at a club or cabaret 💃🏽 The moaning is for you know what he’s giving the lady cab driver🤣

I grew up listening to Prince and Michael! Prince was my preference because he was edgy, controversial, and socially conscious! He easy mixes sex and a message in his music! His earlier music was especially sexy, with songs like I Wanna Be Your Lover, Darling Nikki, and Head! Then you have very socially aware songs like Sign of the Time and Controversy! Prince had us dancing and thinking! He’s the GOAT! 💜💜

Lady Cab Driver Can You Take Me For A Ride (Think About It)

I absolutely love seeing this younger generation discover great music. Priceless and honest reactions.

Hi. "Prince, The Purple King, The Purple Legend, he was definitely was a musical genius." Try this one, (it's Blues) Prince - Red House [One Of The Best Live Versions] (Kostas A~171) feat Maceo Parker and Johnny Blackshire. Or Prince "If I Was Your Girlfriend, Somebody, Somebody." Just to name a few. He has so many hits. The One, The Only.

In the song Prince is expressing how lonely he is but has nowhere and no one to go to. So he's basically venting to her how down in the dumps he is. After the first chorus he asks her "take me to your mansion", to which she does, and that's when Prince takes his frustrations out on her through intercourse. I love how he added in the sound effects of the bed on that part lmao. I could never make out what the gargling sound is exactly but my interpretation is probably he was drunk before he even got in the cab and the morning after, he's throwing up.

Giving it to her real goodddd

Prince was a genius, wild & free. He is the absolute best of my generation, no comparison. I'm so surprised that so many young people don't know of him, he broke so many barriers as a young artist. Prince had total control over his artistic vision, and more often than not played all the instruments, arranged, wrote & produced everything. And what a performer, he was just lit.

Hell yeah he’s giving it to her, that’s the best part of the song, he’s paying for the ride with every stroke and for everything that was bothering him when he got in the cab

My heart is filled with so much joy! 🎶🎵🎶🎵🥰😍🔥😎💜

FYI yes the lady moaning is exactly what your thinking Pri ce is the Goat one of the most talented individuals who ever lived,btw he played all the instruments in this song. A lot of people slept on Prince, RIP, he is severely missed, and can't be replaced. Miracles and blessings to you and yours.

Pince- " let'S work"

You'll need to listen to his protégés like The Time, The Family Appollonia 6, Vanity 6, Sheila E, even the two Mazarati tracks and Sheena Easton's Sugar Walls This was all over "Urban" radio in Detroit. I'm glad you're hearing the funk Prince and not just the breakout crossover of Purple Rain. Prince was a FREAK and a genius. I hope you get to Bambi, Dancing Close and Slow, Let's Pretend We're Married... BEST GUITARIST EVER!

Going to catch heat for this. But here goes: MJ was the ultimate live stage performer and dancer.. His albums were his concepts and he was at his peak teaming up with Quincy Jones. Prince? Prince teamed up with NO ONE. He needed no one. At the age of (16, 17?) He turned down the opportunity to have his 1st album produced by Maurice White of Earth Wind & Fire, declaring that "the only one who will produce my music is me". And Maurice agreed saying there was nothing he could do for him. Prince was all set. Prince did it ALL. He played ALL the insturments. Like MJ, his stage shows were monstrous. A studio engineer once said that the only reason Prince has a band was because he couldnt play all the instruments simultaneously by himself. If I give MJ a 10, I will have to give Prince an 11.

The extreme genius of it all, who in the hell makes an entire album (yes Album) titled 1999 in 1982? I'm feeling all sorts of reincarnation vibes.

Okay you're in deep with Prince DMSR, and Let's Pretend we're Married. must be next on your list. Then Darlene Nikki

1999 is princes best album cause it is the cross roads between prince trying to find his sound n a man found his sound at the same time. I love 1999. That album is funky asfuck!

My absolute favorite from the 1999 album! 🔥🔥🔥

Prince's first 2 albums he played an instrument, recorded it, played it back while playing an other instrument and simultaneously doing vocals(lead and background) until he completed song after song, that he wrote by the way, and completed his albums. His talent was limitless. Keep going with his music. Soft and wet is my suggestion for you, from his first album.

I am glad you found out Prince is talented!

If you're going in this direction, I promise you're not ready! It irks me when the only song people know is Purple Rain. That was his 6th studio abum. He had 39 studio albums in total & so many others, plus songs he wrote for others and played on uncredited. He was very generous with his time and money with millions to music programs in schools (loved kids), gave Spike Lee millions to finish She's Gotta Have It and Malcolm X, always gave $$ and coats for the homeless in every city, and gave all the proceeds to Freddie Grays Family when he went to their city to do a concert to calm the city after he was killed by police. He was socially conscious & tremendously intelligent beyond the music of which he taught himself to play 27 different instruments from the age of 7. He turned down his 1st record deal offer at age 16 because they refused to allow him full creative control, but at 17 had a deal with Warner Brothers and before he passed, had gained the rights to the Masters for all his music. It's been reported that Tamron Hall (who was once involved w/him.. She had to take a 2 month leave from her previous show when he passed. Her husband's Co. just bought the Rights to half his music catalog.

Twon, I wish Prince could see your reaction. I know he would be pleased. Your reaction was my reaction in 1982. There was nothing out like that at the time. Glad you enjoyed it and cause of your reaction I subscribed and gonna watch your videos.

Yes he is giving it to her. I was wondering how long it was gonna take for you to pick up on that. Mind you he is playing all the instruments on this!

Check out Prince International Lover, If I Was Your Girlfriend, I Wanna Be Your Lover. They are 🔥

Prince's music is timeless....this song is STILL one of my dirty sound-gasm faves. Nice choice. Subscribing now :)

Salute to you. Once the music started..your face. Man you already it's 🔥. Song is a hood classic for every generation.

Rest in Purple Power Sweet Prince! I cried more when he passed than when my own mama passed.

Prince and Funk, yeah Bro! He's playing and singing everything you hear.

I love seeing a new generation finding and loving Prince! Really nice to see you appreciate an album cut that wasn't a single. Since you loved this tune, I have a feeling, you're going to be a huge Prince fam. Please keep riding the curving purple highway that is Prince! ☮️

He is beyond talented. That man can tho down on the 🎸. As well as all other instruments. That's what sets him aside from Michael Jackson. Prince was an iconic musician and performer

"The only song I heard from Prince was Purple Rain and it wasn't him. It was from a movie or something." Daaaaannnnng, that hurts.

Please react to the long album version "I could never take the place of your man" by Prince. Especially for the guitar at the end the short versioncuts it off!

It took you long enough to figure out, darlin. 😂🤣 Prince was verrrry sexual.

Prince Let's Get Married

One of the baddest bass rhythms

now remember he's written every note and played every instrument. that woman in the background is Jill Jones (the blonde waitress in PurpleRain), and she Jill should be acknowledged as the voice on many of the Minniapolis sound background vocals.

1999 the double album is a freakin' Masterpiece album, and this song is just one of the many highlights on it! It's all Prince (with Jill Jones as the cabbie) .... a classic timeless Prince song, and it's still SLAMMIN' in 2021 and beyond, his rhythm guitar playing here is insane! ... O(+> 4ever #GOAT ... btw, excellent reaction! :-)

I LOVED EVERY BIT OF THIS!!! I just fell in love with Prince all over again!!! 😍

His Royal Badness

Just a musical genius Start from early albums in order and listen to the evolution. No one can duplicate that talent, no one

New subscriber. Prince music will never die.

Yep. 😂😂🔥🔥 I loved your reaction. ❤️

I think you're gonna like '777-9311' by Time. It was also produced by Prince. It was sampled by 2 Pac.

Oh my damn! I’ll be back for this after work! I’m going to need a drink for this! One of my 77+ favorites. God, he was so wonderfully dirty!

Been listening 2 this stuff 4 over 40 yrs and still make the faces U make... the FUNK is undeniable.

Ur eyes when u realised what was going on , priceless

Purple rain is his movie. Watch that and you will see what Prince was when it came to talent. He was 25.

Exactly how I’ve listen to this song since I can remember get the same feels every time

And that was before it's time ,Michael and prince did that

Yes sir. Every thrust was for something important.

Funky, clever, nasty 😈 That’s The Prince!

one of his best grooves ever

The look of recognition on your face as it hit you as to why she was screaming

You’re not on Prince Black album level yet. You just got started with His music. You have no idea how GOAT he is!

Prince was the greatest singer, songwriter, musician, producer, arranger, composer, engineer that has ever lived.

I was 10 when this came out...I can remember sitting on the porch listening to this on the midnight funk association with some of the other kids in the hood... such a vibe...everybody in Detroit loves Prince.

This reaction was great! I am an older gentleman and started listening to Prince in 1979. I love it when people finally discover him! Prince is the GOAT!

Bro, I love you got that dirty funk face going on, lol... Prince is the GOAT

Best reaction to a Prince masterpiece I ever seen, thank you.

You have a 32 (at least) album catalogue to choose from... enjoy! Keep up the good work. Your reaction is how I reacted over 30 years ago. You may want to listen to his first song on his first album 'For You'. It's different and only about a minute but it sums up what he was going to present to the world.

Baby u have no idea how talented he was listen to scandalous by him

I felt same way 40 years ago!!!- "Daaam this is funkeeeee" i said to myself

Prince was a real true musician & composer. I meet him, his 1st wife Mayte Garcia The NPG, Larry Graham .
