- Famed entertainer and a member of Mint Condition, Stokley Williams spoke to VladTV about his time spent with Prince. He revealed that he was fortunate enough to see Prince evolve while living in Minnesota. Later on, when Stokley was playing gigs around town, Prince would find out where he was and throw wadded up $100 bills while he played.
Check out more of what Stokley had to say about Prince, including the singer not sleeping for days until a song was complete, hit the above video.
you can never go wrong with Stokely truly underrated one of my favorite Singers. mint condition 100%
Pretty Brown Eyes!
..... and many many many MANY MORE!!!
In all honesty, I myself can sing, taught myself listening to my OWN VOICE over Casio speakers on my keyboard. And I actually can sound pretty good singing other artist's songs, but just trying to sing a Mint Condition song, like Pretty Brown Eyes? Ayo, believe me when I tell you, Stokley Williams has NO RIVAL singing-wise. I am HARD PRESSED to name a male vocalist who has his incredible range. The competition is none with Stokley.
Wmanzie saffa he's one of the best. One of my favorite singers. I taught myself to sing too and he's one of my influences.
@@cobracongo That was cool.. but there is a lot of stuff by MC that's actually better than that track!
Stokely is one of the best singers PERIOD!
Yep, to ME, he IS the Best. Period. No one is fucking with his range.
Facts!
Except maybe Tonex...

an incredible singer and drummer
Mint Condition. The definition of real R&B. There definitely needs to be more R&B Bands like them. Yes I said bands, people who play instruments. There are no mainstream black bands today!!!!!! CRAZY
J Tol They were the last one.
*Migos
Araj Franco thats not a band idiot they dont use instruments and have a lead singer lol
Migos is a rap group. A band has a bass player, Guitar player, Keys, Sax, etc.. The whole nine. Me being musician myself, I can tell you that there are definitely black bands and black musicians never went away. They are either playing Neo-Soul lounges in your local city, Cruises, or in the church. The problem is that White Owned record labels have a monopoly on Black music and refuse to sign actual Black bands.
This is why Mint Condition have always been underrated, despite them making relevant music..White owned labels that whore out Black Culture have turned away from signing and pushing black bands in all shapes and forms.
Prince was a GENIUS! Stokley has a great voice and is extremely talented. Great interview! Prince forever!💜💜💜💜
Stokley has a much deeper speaking voice than I expected. Kinda like Prince!
The Mint is underated for sure. Legendary.
9Thoth ... I have been saying this statement for yeeeeeeaars!!! Such a talented group and Stokely 🖐🏾 Awsome!!!!
As former lead singer for slave I have to say that I am beyond proud of Stokley. What an amazing genius he is and just an incredible personality....this is nice listening to him talk about Prince and his times as a session drummer background vocalist for all of these great artists. I would really like to hear him do an entire album by himself. I am beyond inspired by Mint condition and their talent /longevity....He seems to be very funny also as he had me laughing a lot....thanks Stokley!
WAYNE FOOTE you sang with Slave after Steve Arrington? Awesome!
WAYNE FOOTE wow you sang with Steve Arrington?
WAYNE FOOTE Appreciate all your group's contributions. You have an amazing voice. I never heard a song from you guys that wasn't good to great.
WAYNE FOOTE that is kind of u
Steve arrington a genius
Never ever doubted what Charlie Murphy said on Chappell, but it's even funnier having it confirmed by others.
a lot of people dont know that at the same time he was getting his record deal, Prince had multiple basketball scholarships as well..
Ok. That video/story was on Chapelles show? Ok!
I love that he is not willing to spill any of the tea from private convos... You gotta respect that...
S_Hutchinson many of us could learn from that
very true
No such thing as spilling tea.. Yall made it up.. Plus gossip doesn't happen when there loyalty and respect. So of course!!
Nah not feeling that
@@djachilies 90 pct of things are made up.
"Arrangements, Orchestration, Composition, Harmony, Melody....that's 10 different jobs in a day"... that's TRUTH right there. We musicians work just as hard as everyone else. I appreciate that Mr. Stokely, God bless!
EXACTLY!!! And Prince did this for several diferent groups at one time. The Time, Vanity 6 and his own album. And the b-sides. And the remixes. Thats pure creativity - and genius.
Factz... 👏👏
Prince was different and creative and a genius
Stokely is no joke on the drums, this dude is thorough.
I had zero idea he played drums until I saw one of their shows at home (Minneapolis) and he went NUTS on the drums!!!!!!! Was totally shook.
Johnk H%100 thats a fact!
Got some serious chops!!
@@rtoriq Stokely KILLS on the drums. There is video...Check the Unsung episode on Mint Condition.
Johnk H%100 Facts!
Prince was a real cool dude to talk to. I met him twice at after parties, one in Milwaukee and one in Dayton. Such a deep dude
Rodney Davis can you share how those convos went?
Bankkey Aoshi hh
@@BankkeyAoshi well the first one he spoke mostly to my gorgeous exotic looking ex fiance and almost ignored me lol. I was mad lol. He was cool tho
Mint condition is the most underrated black band period.
Exactly! Right on!
Forreal
Here here
What's some of their best songs?
@@cjhepburn7406 What kind of man would I be, Breaking My heart, U send me swinging, so fine, you dont have to hurt no more or some of the biggest
I'm so glad I'm not the only one who thinks Stokley is the man! Sings his ass off and plays the hell out of the drums... One of my favorite vocalists....
Stokley/Minthead for life! Dude is the only musician that still sounds the same for 30 years.
LU Lion The BAND Standard period
Baby face still sounds the same lol
I love love love Stokely
@@Fam200532 it's funny that u mentioned Babyface... I was just w/him back in October of this year in Hampton, Va on Smooth R & B Tour... Which included Next, BBD, & Bobby Brown... Now the crazy thing is Bobby & BBD were the headliners, but when I tell U that Babyface Took the Roof off the building... @ 62 years young shirt off in the crowd & I don't mean floor seats I'm speaking of up in the nose bleed singing "End of The Road"!!! He sounded awesome & his catolog of hits that he has penned for other's could have kept us there ALL Night!!! Mane I am not a Babyface fan not am I a fan of his sound, because it all sounds the same to me no matter who's singing it, yet I can & will say that I have found a new Respect for him, his work & his craftsmanship... ✌️
Philip Bailey still sounds the same.
Great interview! Stoke is right when he says Prince was a genius and the world is a darker place without him.
Stoke is a loyal dude, he coulda went solo a long time ago
Darrien Williams And It wasn't like he couldn't pull it off, but Stokely didn't want to.
Matthew Olden ummmm duh
Need that band brah
Darrien Williams I don't think you understand the dynamo that is that entire band fam. Granted Stokley has a great voice, his band of musicians are unparalleled!! He needs them and they need him. A perfect union.
Agreed
Charlie Murphy always had good stories. Rest Easy
This is a true musician right here. Drummer, who can sing lead phenomenally...
Man, straight nuts. One of my favorite vocalists.
Calvin Estes: Do a lil research, most drummer's r the lead singer or will come from behind the skins... Here's a few Jeffrey Osborne of the Soul Group L.T.D; Teddy Pendergrass of the Soul Group Harlod Melvin and the Bluenotes, Phil Collins of the Classic Rock Group Genesis... They keep the beat that makes u move ur feet... Just as most DJ's R Producers.. ✌️
Zoey Bags Larry Blackmon cameo
Dude has the smoothest voice ever!!! He should read bedtime stories for living
Tae Mac which is crazy cause his singing voice is a completely different octave. 2-3 octaves higher. Pause
LOL
😂
Pause
Its 7am I'm laffin like hell but ur rite lmao
Knew he was the man when pretty brown eyes came out, Stokley and mint condition. And the rest is history, only one of the truest, funkiest, grooviest, r&b, and musically talented bands, singers, and musicians around and still standing. Definitely true musicians,
Mint Condition is one of the MOST underrated R&B Bands in the HISTORY of MUSIC.
Minneapolis Minnesota......from Prince to Stokley and now Lizzo and many more. Talent beyond belief in this place!
Stokely & Mint Condition is an amazing group.
*I remember going through a break-up in the mid 2000s. I played Mint Condition probably 80 Trillion times! I love them. I adore this guy's voice. They're an amazing band. 🤗
Prince was surrounded by hidden enemies. Always watch the people closes to you.
I believe that too, however, I do think he was a loyal individual!😃 I really like the group Mint Condition!
Electronic Surveillance - True BUT he was a junkie.
Yeah his sister Tyka..and Larry Graham and Kirk Johson. None of them lifted a finger to save him. Larry and his wife live less than a mile from Paisley.
They showed no concern after the plane incident nor even after he died. Fake ass bitches for sure.
@@thatbemefool so fucking what?
i love how he keep his conversation with prince private in respects to him...most men dont honor that
Love me some Mint Condition... So many lovely songs that symbolize the true epitome of R&B.
Stokleys voice is sent from the heavens....he is also INCREDIBLE. And yessss PRINCE is everything
Singers with range be having the deepest voices it's weird
Yeah, it's kinda weird the way that works out. Having had vocal training myself, my speaking voice has gotten more deeper which I love because I use to always be mistaken for a child when I was talk on the phone. Lol.
@Da Royal General yeah Larry Graham definitely...
not really
Protects the vocal chords. Keeps them at rest. Look at Beyoncé, Brandy or Monica’s speaking tone compared to their singing range. Low energy so when they hit the stage or studio they have an explosive voice.
@@Kingjames313 that makes a lot of sense man.. let it purr in the downtime
Prince was the G.O.A.T! It will never be seen again. I'm so glad I experienced & got to see him in my lifetime.💜
Stokely is Awesome too as an artist & clearly as a true friend. I'm so glad Prince prepared & left us so much for years to come. Stokely is so cool & doesn't seem or look anywhere near his years & very gifted.
Stokely looks exactly the same as he did when he was young.
Timeless
That's the result of saying no to drugs

Prince's death made my world a little duller. Pure Genius. Stokley was obviously a true friend.
Still hard to believe he's gone. Still think I'm in denial.....
It's amazing how Stokely and Prince sound alike with the deep tone voice when they talk. Wow
He makes a good point because the Emancipation CD was all about the internet and the future but was released in 1996, now look at where we are.
go back and listen to some of those songs and the lyrics. the man was brilliant.
pj w yes indeed
Emancipation was definitely underrated! His last tour de force of the 90's, great from beginning to end!
pj w Absolutely......
Prince was way head of his times
@J Crash not at all... Prince had great music in all eras of his life, you had to follow him to know. You're probably one of the fans who just likes Purple Rain. He's got a treasure trove of great stuff, many of my favorite songs from the 90s, gtfoh.... Lol you don't know. Educate yoself.... Free free, free yoself
"Game!...Blouses."🕺🏽
Daud Abdullah epic haha✨
He looked and fashioned himself in.Victorian Garb...Men wore a little heel back them..The fashion History books does say that....People Borrow from Fashon Decades and Eras of History all the time..That was my Favorite Prince Fashion look from him...The rest not so much...but he did his own thing...
Stoke is a true artist musician....he says the word "gig", I bet these new artists don't even know wat a gig is smh 🤦🏾♂️
lmao👍
Darrien Williams pig
NiggaDiDYouShiT?YouStank punk
Well the "gag' is lol jk
Might think it is a Text Lingo for "Gotta Insta-Gram"
Stockley is cool as hell me and my lady met him a few years back at a show he's real down to earth laid back cat.
James Smith yeah he is. Met him backstage at the Riverside theater in Milwaukee. Stokely was super cool
yes he is very down to earth
My favorite Mint Condition song is (you send me swinging).🌞tribe
Prince lived for creating good music 🎼 He couldn’t sleep because his mind was always coming up with creative ideas, so he expressed it in his songs 💜💜💜
"Hundred dollar bills. Just throwing 'em... It's like... do I keep these?" Good question! :)
Prince is GOAT! Straight like that! He tried to wake us up. From writing slave on his face to the lotus album which represents the spiritual awakening that opens the crown chakra to decode the secrets of the world. Then he did the THIRD EYE GIRL BAND! He was trying to tell us to pay attention to our temples and how they work. Many of us don’t know what the temple (body) can do. We have more then one body. We have seven light bodies. When he did purple rain I believe he was saying let purple (the color of the crown chakra) reign as in rule. Stop letting out red corvette (root chakra) drive our life’s decisions. Yes he was talking about a woman but he was an expert in double speak, making things mean several things depending on the level of the person who’s listening. The cherry moon was a heads up to the blood moon tetrads we had. Which is very rare! Let’s go crazy: he was telling us to stop being assimilated. Do what resonates and feels good to u. F what other ppl think. Be who u are at all times. He also warned us about 9/11. Saying “bin laden getting ready to bomb”! He was an esoteric writer like Shakespeare mixed with Beethoven and Mozart! That’s why he dressed the way he did. He came to me in a dream before he died. I won’t go into what happened here. But let’s just say, he had prepared for his transition to the higher dimension! He ain’t dead. He came alive when he left he’ll on earth !
Very interesting points, thanks for them! I definitely feel Prince around in spirit offering guidance and I'm not even like a huge fan per say. 💜
💜 this is true it's only deep to those who aren't in touch with the other relm to this thing. They call LIFE
PR does represents the Purple Crown Chakra raining down on you. Godlike infinite timeless depth. Also the lotus flower is connected to the number 7 in numerology, with Prince being a number 7 Gemini (interview with his photographer confirms his love of numerology ua-cam.com/video/tMHmWE1EqDc/v-deo.html). I never picked up on the red corvette root chakra link, but it makes complete sense given his use of the purple crown chakra on the same album, PR. He was indeed an expert in esoteric doublespeak, which the elite uses to fool the masses. From the moment he wrote SLAVE (Agenda 21) on the side of his face, he became a whistleblower of sorts, warning the public of upcoming changes to public policy & market strategy etc. His release of the song Crystal Ball in 1998 (originally made in 1986) is his warning of the upcoming 'War on Terror". Note that the Bin Laden riff was done around this time too! P was the most bootlegged artist in the world. Starship Troopers was also released around this time (see rob agers analysis of this).
Also note Prince sampling Ancient Egypt's golden age with Emancipation. There's a lot to uncover from that period. Pay attention to his interview from that time period. The one where he said him and mayte met in a past life in Egypt. Doublespeak! And how he was inspired by a rebel egyptian king that went against the grain. His way of reasoning his actions during this time.
thats crazy because there’s this deeply spiritual woman I follow who has a dense backround with yogis and such. she said prince came to her in a dream before he transitioned and said he was prepared or something like that too
Wow! That was one of the most awesome interviews. I just saw The Revolution featuring Stokely four days ago in San Francisco. Stokely confirmed in this interview many things I felt about Prince and himself even. True Cats who are tapped into the Energy of All Life and Love!✊🏾
How is his voice so deep. Wow... He sings so high!
Just like Prince
The hat cooler than a polar bears toenail...
King Playa TM oh, hell, there he go again talkin' that sh!+....

ChocolateThaiE I heard it's not where u from , but where you pay rent...I heard it's not how much you made, but how much u spent...
I was a 18 year old kid at that Rolling Stones Tour in LA 1981 when Prince was booed off of the stage. He was the opening act which included J Geils & George Thorogood and we didn't know who he was. I remember people were throwing their shoes at him till he quit! He left halfway through his 3rd song but I remember thinking, He HAD to be Someone to open for The Rolling Stones... I mean how do you get a gig like that? Fast forward a little more than one year later and he releases his 1999 Album, with Little Red Corvette, Delirious, and the title track.. and then after that followed it up with the Purple Rain album. I Still put his Super Bowl performance as one of the best ever.. (along with U2's post 911 Super Bowl show). If you haven't seen his performance..check it on UA-cam.. Best live performance of Purple Rain EVER.. and done in the falling Miami rain.
You feel dumb now? 😂😂 jus kidding.
Victor Neumann I bet the people who boo’ d him off stage felt stupid later because they probably became fans of his music
Stokley fine...😍😍😍. My favorite R&B band from the 90s...
Last of the black bands
The Internet
There are so TRUE stories about Prince just appearing! My cousin lived in Minnesota & her & her boyfriend were at a comedy club. & some 1 said "Prince is here!" Everyone thought he was playing. Then she looked closer & it was him he had been in the crowd the whole time with a leather zip up jumpsuit that zipped up around his face! #legendary
I spoke to a manager at a company that I worked at. He was in Minneapolis & he said Prince would pop up in local places; so cool!
Luv u Stokely! I will always luv and support Mint Condition as well as u! TRUE talent right here☝️💜👍🏾
Prince was the ultimate musician‘s musician. We will never see his like again
This is key
Crazy how some singer's two voices are so totally different --- when Stokley hits those high notes, ain't no way, you would think he sounds like this when he talks! Just crazy man! And the brother just shows his intellect! Go head, do your thing, Stok!!!
Thank y'all. Mint Condition is one of the greatest and underrated bands ever. Love Stokley and Mint Condition.
Met Stokely and Mint Condition a few times between 1992-1996... My sister from Minneapolis dated ( James Popeye Greer ) their Manager and also Co-Engineer for Jimmy & Terry @ Flyte Time Studios, so I got to hang out alot at concerts backstage and in their Hotel room... They were so Awesome Live and Stokely was The Man on Vocals and Drums... What tripped me out was seeing The Time drummer ( Jellybean Johnson ) playing Rhythm Guitar with Mint Condition on a few shows... And when Stokely wasn't playing, Chris Dave played drums and later joined the band ( he a badd boy too )... Those were some of the best years of my life... I really thought I was the sh## back then...
I'm thinking Prince got a whole new genre in that vault
Isaac West
10 different genrez. Sum Mozart. Mo funk, & mo funk than dat!
Isaac West he told arsenio hall he wouldnt look the same if he went thru the vault,literally meaning its so much music in there he would be tired and out of breath digging
Mega Facts !
Isaac West same
I was playing a gig in Phoenix a few years ago and in walks Micky Free, (I had no idea who he was but he looked like a rockstar). He complimented us and bought the band a round - he told me his name and I instantly knew him from the Charlie Murphy story. After a bit I said “I gotta ask” ... without any hesitation he cut me off mid sentence and said “Yes, it’s true! All of it - even the pancakes!” He was super cool to talk to and he gave me his card with an actual phone number and email - a real down to earth person. That was my only Prince moment - true story!
Thx for the Chuck Brown DC, MD, VA Go-Go shoutout Stokely you were definitely spot on with that
03:58 Prince had powers.. this dude aint the first one to say that he appears out of nowhere
This is why Orlando Brown said the devil came and collected cause prince tapped into some dark arts making an agreement cause Sinbad even said Prince was at the top of his steps/balcony and next thing he was right near them
Thank you Stokely love Mint Condition and your new song Level. Thanks for sharing stories of Prince i can never get enough of them i especially like the one when Prince was throwing a roll of $100.00 at you when during one of your gigs.that was very Prince.. so funny. Great interview. All the best to you Stoke, you and Mint Condition are right up there with the greatest music artists.
Yes!
Stokely you’re up their too bro. You fit in good with the Revolution. Prince would of been proud
Love Stockley as a member of Mint Condition to his solo career ! He is still doing it !!!
this makes me happy and sad at the same time, hearing the stories, but knowing there will never be another
I knew dude has great range but hearing how deep his regular or talking voice is man all I can say is CRAZY!!
Mint Condition reminds me of school dances. Good times. Great music.
He is so talented and such a nice guy! Fantastic performer! I had the opportunity to meet him after the show with The Revolution!💜💜💜
Such a great interview, Stokely is definitely one of the best to do it, and to be associated with Prince is simply remarkable.
Awesome! interview with one of the baddest song writers, vocalist around. I can honestly listen to any song of Mint Conditions and it will touch my Soul thoroughly. Thank you brother Stokley for all of the great music you and the band has shared with the world. Peace, Blessings and continued success.
Happy Birthday to the legend, Prince.
r.i.p Charlie Murphy and Prince
What he said about genius being a diff breed, seeing world before we do, etc. Yes, that was Prince. Just on whole other level. He was probably too deep for himself at times...lol! He was obviously human but very special and extraordinary. It's hard watching these vids now that we actually can, but he is not around. Love him and miss him!
You are a bad group anytime your third behind Micheal Jackson and Prince lol
Facts
💯💯💯
Love Stokley... Absolutely one of the best singers and musicians to ever do it!!
I’ve seen Mint Condition live many times over the years. MC is one of the few groups that exist that actually sound better live than they do recorded... Phenomenal!!
Yessss
“Thiiiiis feeling is the one thing my heart has dreamed of sooo iiiiiiii....wait for the daaaay oh sweet gentle swaaayyyyyy-ya” 💜🔥💜🔥💜

Prince hands down! Love Mint Condition. Love you, Stokely. ❤❤❤
Earth Wind and Fire and Mint Condition are the baddest R&B bands out here today! 🔥🔥
he should always honor and cherish the memory of Prince dropping $100 bills on him while he was drumming. Prince really saw a lot in him and he should be making Prince's name as big as possible especially with how generous and philanthropic that Prince was with the music world and his fellow man.
I've known Stokely since we were little kids and our moms went to college together.
Two Trains Running August Wilson. Another great writer ahead of his time.
Lucky you
Stokley the coolest guy & one of the best to do it. Incredible multitalented artist ✌️
I miss music groups like Mint Condition, Jodeci, Dru Hill. They need to make more music! I will listen. It's real R&B has substance to it, meaning. Real feelings. I miss Prince too and I still listen to his music.
I saw Mint Condition LIVE in STL a few years ago. I stood the whole time and for part of the show it rained. And I must say they are the TRUTH as a band, as musicians, and as performers. They covered Prince's "When Doves Cry" and they absolutely SLAYED the place.
Okay so...you get Stokley for an interview and miss talking about his process, the history of Mint Condition...how young they were...geniuses! His dang voice! Ugh....he’s freaking magical y’all! A deep well.
Agreed! 🤦🏾♀️
prince was super disciplined
STOKELY you said a mouthful! I have been saying all my life.. to be a genius there has to be some insanity! And PRINCE was insane!!! A musical genius.. as is MC
Great interview. Loved Prince....love Stokley.💜
Prince DEFINED the androgynous look. He toured with Rick James, of whom the term "Punk Funk" was given. The two toured together and Rick messed with 'em pretty mercilessly. The guy was channelling the New Wave / Punk thing--he crossed over to EVERYONE. Did you see the clip of James Brown having Michael and Prince up on stage... In my mind there was NO contest between the two. Micheal was an incredible heavyweight--but Prince played THIRTEEN instruments and was more like, well Mozart. He was a genius, he channelled Little Richard, Jimi Hendrix, Sly Stone, George Clinton AND James Brown.
Have you listen to his jazz /funk tapes--he was unbelievable.
Keith Casper I agree with every word !
Stokley Williams is a great! Thanks for this interview.
Prince was the greatest
I have been a fan of Mint Condition since "Definition of a Band". stokey and the band are true musicians. it is my hope, they continue to inspire us all with the talent, beauty and power of there music!
Mint Condition is STILL the shit! They've got music for whatever you wanna do.
Michael Walker FACTS!!! 😂😂😂
For Real!
Taste of mint / pretty brown eyes .. love that song especially that piano raindrops remix ...i met prince of couple of years ago in Atlanta he was very cool i will never forget that day meeting him ...and seen him concerts dozen of times he's a real true musician there never be another like him
When you watch an interview, and the person seems so cool that you are mad at yourself for not knowing more about them. Heading to listen now,
The reason Mint Conditon, got recognized by the likes of Prince, is because of their Musicianship (Musicology). Real bands.are a dying breed, especially ones that stay loyal to the craft BIG UPS TO MINT CONDITION! My abosolute favorite band!
STOKLEY WILLIAMS IS AWESOME MUSICIAN HIS MUSIC IS ALL THAT VOCALS
can play any instruments very talented
Stokley is a bad bad man. He is a total package for entertainment. Saw him in concert on a D.
C. Park summer concert! Fabulous!!
Love the talk about Prince's tour w/Rolling Stones. To this day I still believe they should have paired Prince with David Bowie or the Talking Heads back in 1981 or even The Tubes or Roxy Music. Touring with the Stones wasn't a good match. Nice to hear this remembrance! #Prince4Ever
Stokely on Pretty Brown Eyes when he broke it down " i just wanna know 1 thing .........." oh lawd. My jam.❤💚💛🧡💜💙🎺🥁🎷🎸🎹🎼🎵🎶................😊
Stokley, all day!! Love the band Mint Condition, absolutely *_LOVE_* Stokley 💯👏💝
As for *_Prince,_* he was a true Gemini ♊! He lived in the dual nature of the zodiac and as a Gemini ♊ myself, I totally understand that shite.
_Prince_ is my Muse! He is my mentor indeed and growing up listening to him, made it easy to free the _Real_ me, not what the world wanted to see. Hands down, he's my favorite genius 💝👏💯😊
I would have never thought the man that sang “forever in your eyes”, voice would sound like this when talking. This brother is smooth.
