its a good mix but the original is one of my alltime fav songs so i can't give you an unbiased assessment

Will has had a history of arguing with directors (Michale Bay, Peter Tenant) All those movies have turned out great! I'm glad Berg is challenging Will, I think he's a great director.. It should mean we get a really good movie! I'm sure people thinking it was gonna get physical were exaggerating.. I doubt Will is gonna knock out an aging director

I was waiting for AJ to post this but anyway..he heard on the radio yesterday the following.. What do you think of that?

Just so everyone knows I closed the forum because chief told me to..so if you're upset take it out on him

I would say the will smith board skews a lot younger than this one.. Anyway its not a big deal to me.. if Will's official forum is getting better then great

love the new poster... a lot better! :wickedwisdom: :wickedwisdom:

"VH1 ROCK DOCS: FADE TO BLACK" & "CLASSIC ALBUMS: JAY-Z" PREMIERE WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 3 STARTING AT 8:30 PM* Shawn Carter (Jay-Z) has been one of the most influential figures in black American music since the mid-nineties. "Fade To Black" reveals the multiple Grammy Award winning artist as never before, from his background and rise to fame to the recording of his last album. The film chronicles his legendary concert at Madison Square Garden in November 2003 that featured guest performances by Beyonce, Mary J. Blige, Missy Elliott, R. Kelly, Foxy Brown, Pharrell, and ?uestlove and The Illadelphonics along with appearances by hip hop icons Damon Dash, Rick Rubin, Slick Rick, P. Diddy and many others. Viewers get the rare glimpse into Jay-Z's creative process as he searches for inspiration, poetry, and perfection in his songs. Narrated by Jay-Z himself, his account of the night takes on reflections of his entire musical career and his journey that led to this one astounding, fabled evening -- rightfully called "Fade To Black." And premiering at 11 PM is VH1's latest addition to the "Classic Albums" franchise that takes us back through the whole creative process behind Jay-Z's stunning first release "Reasonable Doubt." Initially as a performer racking up an incredibly successful string of hit singles and albums and later as an executive, having taken on the presidency of Def Jam Records in 2004. "Reasonable Doubt" is still considered by many to be his finest achievement. A much harder hitting and edgy record than his later more polished and pop orientated releases, it announced to the world that a new rap star had arrived.

They soon discover however, that achieving this is easier said than done since most of their past issues are still unresolved. Salt is angry about being unappreciated when they were together and Pepa blames Salt for breaking up the group. Their lifestyles are also polar opposites: Salt is a devout Christian and is living a quiet life in Long Island with her husband, while Pepa is still the party girl and desperately wants to re-capture the glamour of Salt 'N Pepa's glory days. Can they overcome their differences long enough to heal their friendship and perform again? "Gotti's Way" starting at 10:30 PM* will provide a rare behind-the-scenes look at Irv's company and the music machine that he is, working with artists such as Vanessa Carlton, Lloyd, Ja Rule and more. After being investigated for 3 years by the federal government and acquitted, on charges of money laundering, Irv Gotti is now attempting a comeback with his label, The Inc., while also juggling his responsibilities as a husband and father.
