Cream ", "
Money Don't Matter 2 Night " and "
Insatiable ". Dancers Lori Elle and
Robia LaMorte , known as "Diamond" and "Pearl", are featured on the

Music Video s for "Cream", "Strollin'", "Gett Off", and the album's title track, and also participated in Prince's ''Diamonds and Pearls'' tour.
''Diamonds and Pearls'' featured a hybrid of music styles, from the
Funk of "Daddy Pop", "Jughead", and first single "Gett Off" to some of the more mainstream
Pop /
Rock Prince had recorded in some time, such as "Cream", "Money Don't Matter 2 Night", and the title song.
