Daddy Pop is the second track on the album Diamonds And Pearls, the first album credited to Prince and the New Power Generation. In 1992, it was included on some versions of the Sexy M.F. single.

Basic tracking took place on 2 July 1990 at Olympic Studios in London, England (on the same day as Schoolyard and Walk Don’t Walk and Oobey Doop, but mostly focused on Rosie Gaines’ first solo album, recording My Tender Heart, Hold Me, Pain, Streetwalker, In The Name Of Love and Turn Your Lights Down Low). Additional recordings took place after the Nude Tour at Paisley Park Studios, Chanhassen, Minnesota on 18 September 1990.

The song is essentially a solo performance by Prince, but was edited together with the ending of a rehearsal performance of Partyman to create the ending. It also includes a sampled drum loop from Aretha Franklin’s track Rock Steady from her 1972 album Young, Gifted And Black (played by Bernard Purdie).

With Rosie Gaines, Elisa Fiorillo added her background vocals to the song, having been invited by Prince to take in the Nude Tour show in Cork Ireland, on 7 July 1990. She flew to London with the band after the show, and then joined them in the studio the next day.

The track was included as the first track on the December 1990, configuration of Diamonds And Pearls, but was moved to become the second track on the 1 March 1991 and 8 May 1991 configurations, where it remained for release. A 12" Remix version was included on Diamonds And Pearls (Super) Deluxe Edition in 2023. This version was also streamed on Prince’s Youtube channel and other streaming platforms on 20 October 2023, to promote the upcoming release.
