Diamonds and Pearls is the 13th studio album by American recording artist Prince, and the first with his new backing band The New Power Generation. It was released on October 1, 1991, by Paisley Park Records and Warner Bros. The album produced several hit singles, including "Gett Off", "Cream", "Money Don't Matter 2 Night", "Insatiable", and the title track.

Cream" is a song by Prince and The New Power Generation, from the album Diamonds and Pearls (1991). On MTV Unplugged 2004, Prince stated that he wrote the song while standing in front of a mirror. The single's B-side, "Horny Pony", a rap song which was replaced on Diamonds and Pearls at the last minute by "Gett Off", was re-used from the "Gett Off" single. Cream" was also released as a maxi-single EP with remixes and songs/raps loosely based on "Cream".
