Donnell Jones is back. The album is called lyrics, and if you live close to a Best Buy, they have a version with 3 extra bonus tracks. Donnell Jones has been dropping quality R-N-B since 1996. Anyone who is sick of the dancy R-N-B or the watered-down pop R-N-B, LISTEN 2 THIS ALBUM!!! This is the album that Usher was supposed to release. This album has the swagga that Boyz II Men's album of covers was missing. This album has the consistency that Musiq Soulchild and Dwele didn't come thru' with. As far as I'm concerned, this album, along with Ginuwine's and Jahiem's latest albums is R-N-B being taken back to how it should be done. If you claim to be a fan of R-N-B or Neo-Soul, PLEASE give this album a listen.

DONELL JONES - All About The Sex Lyrics (2010)

Young Berg...holy crap. Who even remembers him?! Jay-Z is way too comfortable. I think that's why his music is often "safe" even when it's good. MC Hammer isn't scared to defend himself which I admire. He's always been the same guy since he 1st came on the scene. He has alot of things going for him that are not music related but he really needs to get that part of his career together. After all, he's an emcee 1st.

RICH CRONIN - Cabdriver Unreleased (2004) This is the same song but he gave it to some group called Natural and appeared as a guest on the track. Missin' my brotha.

PM DAWN - Being So Not Right For You (I Had No Right) Dearest Christian,... (1998) Takin' me back...

I saw this on the other night. SNL is probably the longest running unfunny show in history. This guy definitely pulls off a pretty good animated version of FP vocally. The should have shot him from an angle so we couldn't tell that he looked nothing like him...lol.

ICE CUBE - Soul On Ice I Am The West (2010) It drops this week y'all!! This is alright....but just alright.

BUSTA RHYMES - Everything Remains Raw (Explicit) The Coming (1996) This album is classic. I remember the excitement I had for when this album 1st dropped.

I was going back thru' my old Facebook messages and doing some deleting and realized that someone sent me this article back in March. I'm not sure if it's been posted yet. I really hope this doesn't happen. I just can't imagine any good coming of this. -------------------------------------------------- Back-to-Back Independence Day Sequels, Will Smith Locked? March 29, 2010 Source: IESB by Alex Billington Independence Day Remember in November when we reported that there wasn't just one, but supposedly two, Independence Day sequels in the works? Well, apparently that's true. IESB has a big update from one of their sources who claims that 20th Century Fox has those two Independence Day sequels aiming shoot back-to-back with Will Smith. One of the big snags holding this sequel back over the last fourteen years has been that Will Smith wants more and more money. Word is he will now get $20 million up front as well as part of the gross to star in this, mainly because Fox is now floating in all kinds of cash thanks to Avatar's mega (financial) success. Apparently they're using that "extra" Avatar cash to put some big new franchises in the works, including Independence Day 2 and 3. According to IESB, who is still only reporting all of this as a rumor, Will Smith is "now locked" for both movies, which could start shooting as early as 2011. This might also be Roland Emmerich's next feature after he finishes his William Shakespeare film Anonymous, therefore also delaying the Foundation Trilogy even more. Smith will also have time to still shoot Men in Black 3 (or The City That Sailed) before the sequels, so it could line-up nicely in his schedule. Fox must have some very grand ideas! Again, since this isn't confirmed, I'm not going to go around hooting and hollering about finally getting an Independence Day sequel (two of them!), but I am going to say I'm pretty excited for this to happen. After seeing Roland Emmerich destroy the world so many times recently, I'm glad to see him getting back to his "roots" (so to say) and deliver a sequel to one of my favorite Emmerich movies ever, not to mention one of my favorite Will Smith movies ever. Plus, I can only imagine where they'll be taking the story this time and how they'll up the ante. It'll be very tough to top the original, but I'm looking forward to seeing them try! Update: I have no clue whether to believe this or not, but Gossip Cop (ugh) says that they contacted one of Will Smith's reps who apparently told them that all of this is "not true at this time." To me that sounds like they're just denying it temporarily for the time being (and it is true), plus I don't trust a gossip site over our fellow movie blog brethren. Just wanted to let you know this "update" claiming it's false is out there, at least.

NAUGHTY BY NATURE - So Many Things "...featuring Garden State Greats: The Mixtape" (2010) Thanx for sharing this Ted! I didn't know about this. I must say tho,' the rappers they features on these tracks don't add anything to the songs. The production is average too. I'm hoping their album is gonna be a lot better than this.

A TRIBE CALLED QUEST + LEADERS OF THE NEW SCHOOL - Scenario (Remix) The Love Movement (1992/1998)

I have never been able to get in2 Reggaeton. I'm not a Nelly fan but I love that song. Very R-N-B/Pop...but dope nonetheless. The video is good too. PARTNERS IN KRYME - T.U.R.T.L.E. Power Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Soundtrack (1990) While looking up the video for this post i found THIS!! Classic early 90's performance...lol

Happy B-Day!!

JASON MRAZ - Kickin' With You When In Rome (Soundtrack) (2010)

BLACK EYED PEAS - Weekend Bridging The Gap (2000) I kinda wish BEP would flop so they'd have to regroup and return to making real Hip-Hop again.

JENNIFER LOVE HEWITT - Can I Go Now Barenaked (2002)

KELLY CLARKSON - Because of You Breakaway (2005) One of the best pop rock albums ever.

Very interesting. That documentary featured that late 90'sish looking pic of JJ+FP with him. It looks like their past and legal beef co-exists with some kind of respect. They needed each other but it's clear that JJ+FP was the talent and Word Up Records was just the stepping stone. I had no idea Da Youngsta's were part of the Goodman family. I know they were cool with JJ+FP but I didn't know about the connection. I think I remember looking in my Three Times Dope cassette cover at one point and I remember them shouting out JJ+FP as well. Interesting stuff.

In agreement for JJ+FP to not sue the Goodman family for jacking their song, they will do a remixed version of "Scary Story" that has Dana Goodman saying his own lines in the song. lol

Thanx! Didn't JJ+FP end on bad terms with Dana Goodman? I find it strange that they'd do a remake under those conditions. That was ages ago, I guess.

Yeah, I got it too. It's one of the best R-N-B albums I've heard in years! I was sad 2 see the remix wasn't on there.

Ohhh....1st promotional visual.

KIERNAN MCMULLAN - Borderline Perfect People Are Boring (2009) I'm seeing him perform tomorrow nite. Can't wait.

U know, my attitude is kinda like "leave the classic alone!" but they did a dope job on this. The production is dope. It's a perfect mix of the old with the new. The vocals are nice too. Is there a place to get this?

Why are "guests" making replies in this post so much? It seems like this missing music video is one of Hip-Hop's biggest mystery's. You think after all these years and everyone making so much money they'd work out something the video to this classic available?
