[[Prince]] met Rap/Slam/Spoken Words artist [[Ninety-9]] at [[Venue: Glam Slam West|Glam Slam West]] between the [[Act I]] and [[Act II]] tours. She reportedly gave him a recording of her poems/slams. He added backing music to these slams and offered her a publishing deal. [[Ninety-9]] was not signed to [[Paisley Park Records]] (nor [[NPG Records]]) but was contracted to Paisley Park Music (see triva below) as a songwriter. It is unclear whether this short-lived collaboration was intended to lead to an album, an EP or to a particular project (it is referenced here for the sake of completeness). It is possible that these recordings were made to promote her work as a songwriter and poet, but it is unverified. [[File: SymbolSmallerBlue.png|link=Alias: Symbol]] mentions her by name on [[Now]], describing her as a ''"a new hero cuz she’s so divine''" and [[Days Of Wild]] (''"much props to the upside down double 6''"). | |introduction = This entry details a series of songs [[Prince]] (then [[File: SymbolSmallerBlue.png|link=Alias: Symbol]]) and [[Ninety-9]] (real name Dietra Moses, also nicknamed "Poet99" or "99") worked on in late-Spring or early-Summer 1993.
