Moneyapolis is an unreleased song recorded in 1996 at Paisley Park Studios in Chanhassen, Minnesota (during sessions for the Emancipation album). Eric Leeds added saxophone overdubs on 6 August 1996, also at Paisley Park Studios (on the same day as recording saxophone overdubs on Muhammed Ali). The song is believed to have been intended for Emancipation, but was not included on any known configurations. The track remains unreleased.

The title is a play on words of Prince’s home city of Minneapolis, MN, USA. SymbolSmallerBlue.png reused the play on words for a remix of Undisputed, titled Undisputed (The Moneyapolis Mix), released on Rave In2 The Joy Fantastic in 2001.
