Kinda Like U is an unreleased song, likely recorded in late 2015 or early 2016, at Paisley Park Studios in Chanhassen, Minnesota. The track was recorded by Prince and Natalya Phillips, a singer who in 2004 appeared as little girl in the video for A Million Days. She presumably was a guest at Paisley Park Studios in March 2016 when Prince tweeted "USING ONLY THE SOUND OF HIS VOICE AND A PIANO, PRINCE CAUSES A SENSATION BY LEVITATING A WOMAN 4 FEET IN THE AIR!!!" with a black and white picture of her seemingly floating above a piano.
In the fall of 2015 she had also posted a cover online of the Prince song Free Urself, which as per her post she covered and made a video for upon his request.
She performed the song Kinda Like U together with another cover of Revelation at the Dance On 'Til Dawn 2017 Celebration After Party held at the Metropolitan in Golden Valley, MN, USA on 21 April 2017, the first anniversary of Prince's death.
