Liked both the St. Lenox and THUS LOVE, but something about that St. Lenox song really piqued my interest. Had to scurry off and listen to the whole album. Even though the whole thing kind of presents as a novelty act, I dig the music a lot. Can't really picture how to merge that vocal style into a playlist, though.
I wish I remembered Prince lore well enough to come up with a witty answer to your question. Luckily we have enough Prince inside jokes that I don’t think I really need to bother. Go to the graffiti bridge and say “chili sauce”. There. Good enough.

Yeah, it really is a singular thing. My favorite of his songs are on an earlier album: "Vincent Van Gogh" and "Gold Star". Definitely check those out.

Missed opportunity to reference "ribs".
Although I did appreciate the lyrics, I was not digging the St. Lenox. It reminded me way too much of The Bare Naked Ladies.
Ha! Yeah, I guess I can hear that.
I still listen to "Tell Me" by Groove Theory at least thrice a week. Still a banger.
That was a band I never listened to at the time, because I was dumb. Good shit, for sure.
