No More Candy 4 U is the ninth and final track on Prince’s 34th studio album MPLSound.

Recording dates and studio are unknown, but it is likely that the track was recorded in 2008 at either Paisley Park Studios in Chanhassen, Minnesota or 77 Beverly Park Ln. in Beverly Hills, California. While the other songs on the album are all mentioned in a rap on the previous track Ol' Skool Company, No More Candy 4 U was not. The song was actually pulled from the vault when Prince was compiling the MPLSound album in early 2009.

  • The first verse of No More Candy 4 U can be seen as a response to Madonna’s both album Hard Candy released in late April 2008 (and features a musical contribution by Wendy Melvoin) and her song Music released in 2000. (Music contains the lines "Music makes the people come together / Music makes the bourgeoisie and the rebel" while the first verse of No More Candy 4 U contains the lines "To all the punks who believe that life imitates music / No more candy for you / We can't hang with you") but this is purely speculative.
