There's no need to throw shade at others in order to give Sheila her props. It's similiar to a back handed compliment.

[@DonaldSturgeAnthonyMcKenzieII]

If you say so........

[@danilaroche1156]

I'd love to see her in a Godly marriage. She has soul ties from past lovers that need dismantling. There is also witchcraft in her blood line. Praying for you, Sheila. LOVED your book.

[@DoctorJoanieTool]

Do these Tiny Desks ever stop getting more and more amazing?

[@sirvicemanone]

@DoctorJoanieTool i doubt it even the older o es are great. I especially enjoy finding new artists iv never heard of before. I had been frustrated with modern music and new "artists" however there seem to be many super talented musicians who are wonderful to me but I never get exposed to.

[@creativequeen8371]

Seems not. Absolutely respect Sheila E's multi-talent. I miss Prince, now Kat, as together with Sheila, they brought us some of the best performances ever 🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@lamujermaslinda]

She killed it on the stage everytime she performed with Prince

[@BlueHopi144]

oh yes

[@orlandorobinson9369]

Prince was a perfectionist. You had to elevate your game in order to perform with him.

What a song with the amazing Costarican singer Debi Nova!!! Ufff amazing performance ❤

[@AlexM-uo9gk]

I'm tico, Debi Nova is "aight" , far from amazing. If she wasn't hot she'll be singing in a bar in Escalante, let's be real. Mishcatt formerly from Patterns is way better.

Living legend, Miss Sheila E. Nothing else to say. Clicked on it as soon as I saw her name. Tiny Desk: major props.

How does Sheila E do a tiny desk without glamorous life!! 🤯

[@jovanreid6782]

Or A Love Bizarre. I'm saying tho!

[@tmac6586]

She does it after she was blocked from going into Paisley Park earlier this year. The tour guides were too lazy to let her in at the time. Now she is going back to what she was before Prince.

[@reemoni9613]

She gave Chuck norris a call, and he said, "Do what you do.

[@TheCaliforniaHP]

@@tmac6586 wow crazy to learn and cool on her older music

[@olubukonla7352]

That is all the more reason why Prince should have married her. So she could.carry on his legacy PROPERLY. She was his Coretta. And he fumbled it. BIG Time. 👎🏿👎🏿

I was lucky enough to see Sheila E. when she was on tour with Prince she was his drummer purple rain tour it was amazing.
