Basic tracking took place on [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/September 11|11 September 1990]] at [[Paisley Park Studios]] in Chanhassen, Minnesota (during the same session as [[Fancy Dancer]], [[The Flow]] and a reworked version of [[Something Funky (This House Comes)]]) within hours of returning to the USA from the [[Nude Tour]] in Japan. [[Kirk Johnson]] and [[Tony M.]] share co-writing credit as the track includes a rap from a song initially known as ''Money Matters'' by the group Split Level, which featured [[Tony M.]], [[Kirk Johnson]] and [[Damon Dickson]]. In December 1989 however, it was performed by them using the bandname M.P.L.S. in a KMOJ Holiday show as '''Jughead'''. The track was not included on the December 1990, configuration of [[Album: Diamonds And Pearls|Diamonds And Pearls]], but was included as the ninth track on the [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/March_1|1 March 1991]] and [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/May 8|8 May 1991]] configurations, where it remained for release.

The 1991 track [[The Last Dance (Bang Pow Zoom And The Whole Nine)]] uses some of the same basic tracks and elements as '''Jughead''', although it is distinct enough to be considered its own track (just as [[Violet The Organ Grinder]] was based on [[Gett Off]], for example). See [[The Last Dance (Bang Pow Zoom And The Whole Nine)]] for details of that track.

Two weeks after cutting [[Jughead ]] a different version was cut under the title [[The Last Dance (Bang Pow Zoom And The Whole Nine)]]. It uses some of the same basic tracks and elements as '''Jughead'''. But is different enough to be considered a different take, rather than a straightforward remix See [[The Last Dance (Bang Pow Zoom And The Whole Nine)]] for details of that track.
  
 
In December 1991, [[Steve Fargnoli]], [[Prince]]’s former manager, sued [[Prince]], stating that the spoken word message about managers included at the end of [[Jughead]] was about him, and broke their non-disclosure agreement. The defamation and breach-of-contract suit demanded $5 million in damages.

Jughead is the ninth track on Prince’s 13th album Diamonds And Pearls, the first album to be credited to Prince and the New Power Generation.

An earlier version was tracked in early September 1990, possibly on the 11th, biut the track went nowhere yet, at this point. The ulitmatly released version was then tracked on 31 January 1991 at Paisley Park Studios in Chanhassen, Minnesota. Kirk Johnson and Tony M. share co-writing credit as the track includes a rap from a song initially known as Money Matters by the group Split Level, which featured Tony M., Kirk Johnson and Damon Dickson. In December 1989 however, it was performed by them using the bandname M.P.L.S. in a KMOJ Holiday show as Jughead. The track was not included on the December 1990, configuration of Diamonds And Pearls, but was included as the ninth track on the 1 March 1991 and 8 May 1991 configurations, where it remained for release.

The title "Jughead" is a reference to the distinctive-looking Archie Comics character Jughead Jones.

Two weeks after cutting Jughead a different version was cut under the title The Last Dance (Bang Pow Zoom And The Whole Nine). It uses some of the same basic tracks and elements as Jughead. But is different enough to be considered a different take, rather than a straightforward remix See The Last Dance (Bang Pow Zoom And The Whole Nine) for details of that track.

In December 1991, Steve Fargnoli, Prince’s former manager, sued Prince, stating that the spoken word message about managers included at the end of Jughead was about him, and broke their non-disclosure agreement. The defamation and breach-of-contract suit demanded $5 million in damages.

  • The lyrics refer to the song as ‘new dance commercial - take two’. Similarly, introductory lyrics in Horny Pony, which was originally planned for inclusion on the Diamonds And Pearls album, refer to that song as ‘new dance commercial - take one’. The songs are otherwise unrelated.
