Play (a.k.a. U Want Me 2 What?) is an unreleased track recorded in September or October 1990, at Larrabee Sound, Los Angeles, CA, USA during recording sessions for the New Power Generation maxi-single (during the same set of sessions as the N.P.G. (Funky Weapon Remix), T.C.'s Rap, Tony’s Iggnant Mix, Get Off, The Lubricated Lady, Loveleft, Loveright, a segue later included in the N.P.G. (Funky Weapon Remix), Oobey Doop, Heaven Is Keeping Score, and additional recording on My Tree and A Positive Place).

The song opens with Robin Power saying "you want me to what?" (also used in Number One and New Power Generation (Pt. II)). It was included as the eleventh track (tenth song) on an October 1990 configuration of the New Power Generation maxi-single. It was included (as U Want Me 2 What?) as the seventh song on another October 1990, configuration, but the track was removed from the final release, and the track remains unreleased.
