Joint 2 Joint is the seventh track on the second disc of Prince’s 19th album Emancipation, the third album to be credited to SymbolSmallerBlue.png.

Basic tracking dates are unknown, but it is likely that the track was recorded in early 1996 at Paisley Park Studios in Chanhassen, Minnesota. The track features a rap by Ninety-9 (sampled from the unreleased 1993 track Simlac), and a tap dance performance by dancer Savion Glover (who had just finished performing in the musical Bring in 'da Noise, Bring in 'da Funk, which Prince enjoyed). The track ends with a segue, included in the track time, in which Prince rides in a car and has a phone conversation in which he asks to see the person on the other end (presumably Mayte), leading into the next track, The Holy River.
