Happy B-day! :shocked: I'm not sure what that smiley has to do with your birthday...I just wanted to use it.

Yep Yep...I watched that when it 1st aired on TV and taped it. That actually wasn't from an award show tho.' They did "I Wanna Rock" for the award show. This performance was from a special that focused on the award shows of the past that featured live performances.

FRESH PRINCE - Just Cruisin' Men In Black II Soundtrack (1997) Instead of the real video, I thought I'd post this. It's kinda funny. If u get passed LL's "I'm Bad" and Eazy's "Compton City G's" u can see someone's take on "Just Crusin'" that features FP doing some awful driving. The funny part is close to the end where he's driving down the beach after a girl. It reminded of the line on The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air that went something like "I don't care how pretty she is, you can't drive on the sidewalk!."

ALLURE + LL COOL J - No Question Allure (1997)

LL COOL J - Summer Luv Loungin' (CD Single) (1996) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5UbF1jchLFw I love this joint. I forgot he made a video 2 it. It's so random to make a video for a b-side off one of your singles when your album is still going strong.

LL COOL J - The Ripper Strikes Back (1998)

I love it. I NEED this for the Summertime. Just a feel good Summery Hip-Hop joint.

LL COOL J - Around The Way Girl Mama Said Knock You Out (1990)

It's clear that Tom will will probably not return to greatness. Teaming up with FP is a good move for him but by only producing, it'll keep FP's career in a safe place.

U just got me in the mood for the The Show soundtrack... 2PAC - My Block The Show Soundtrack (1995)

AALIYAH - At You Best (You Are Love) (Stepper's Remix) At Your Best (CD SIngle) (1994)

GINUWINE - Last Chance A Man's Thoughts (2009) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MxoZ3IxxPeE What brand of crack are you on?!?! Ginuwine is one of the best to ever do it!! He was never on Bad Boy. His 1st 2 albums were very involved with Timbaland and Static (from Playa...R.I.P.). After that he branched out and only occasionally worked with Tim. I was disappointed when he started standing on his own (away from the sound Timbaland provided him) but was happy that his sound only became more timeless and not too far from what he started out with.

I love the was you are racing the rhyme on this. Nobody ever "exerts" themselves in their flow anymore. I'll have to listen 2 it again later 2 hear the lyrics. Nice work. My favorite part...the Shabba Ranks dance...lol.

That is my least favorite song off of Salon Stories. It also happens 2 be the kinda song that could get him some mainstream followers tho.' GINUWINE - When We Make Love Back II Basics (2005) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AaJKGRS3DjU How come it's so hard to find R-N-B like this these days?!

Visqo, I hated that 1st joint...but I love the 2 u just posted! The Pacewon's raspy voice just made me break out some Nine. This was a freakin' classic back in the day! NINE - Whucha Want Nine Livez (1994)

Yeah, I 1st heard this on Facebook. I think redoing a song is a risky move. The plus side is that you'll get people checking out the song that ordinarily wouldn't check it out but u also have the tough challenge of making your take on it as dope as the song you are redoing. I love the flow on the 1st verse. I love the lyrics to the 2nd verse but I think the flow loses it's pace just a little bit. I also feel like you are definitely good but possibly a bit reserved since it's a 1st recording. U sounded a bit stiff here or there (mostly on the adlibs). Almost like you are holding back. Just loosen up a bit before the next recording. Nice effort and nice work making the song your own with those lyrics. We'll be waiting for the next thing.

WHODINI - 5 Minutes of Funk Escape (1984) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wSnvkGhRuac Whodini is just classic. In a class all their own. I checked that last song posted. I gotta say that the emcee seemed a bit one-dimensional and the beat was so simplistic...but the worse thing was the guy on the hook. He was so awful I couldn't give the rest of the song a chance. I'll check another song by them tho.'

WILLA FORD + ROYCE DA 5'9" - I Wanna Be Bad Willa Was Here (2001) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zRvpGv3sGU4

Most people on this board are a fan of old school Hip-Hop and already know who Young MC is. :::Moving this to the off-topic board:::

If that's true it's because they count double-disc albums as 2 CDs being sold....meaning that it's probably not. Has anything passed Please Hammer, Don't Hurt 'Em or CRaZYSeXyCOol (tho' some would consider that an R-N-B album)? I need 2 listen 2 Big Boi's album. I have to be honest tho.' I'm interested in an new OutKast album, but I'm not excited about it. Back in the 90's they felt like a group...like one unit. They were down to earth but artsy and with an edge. It seems like like their 3rd and 4th album just had them evolving to something that I'm not that into anymore. They don't feel like a real group anymore. They seemed like collaborating artists instead. It just seems like their experimental side as taken them a bit 2 far from their original formula in my opinion. Let's be real, between Speakerboxxx /The Love Below and Idlewild...we haven't had an OutKast studio album in 10 years! 1 was 2 solo discs and the other was a soundtrack...and not very good one at that. I hope this time away brings them back 2 basics.

That 1st pic looks like it was from 89-90 and the 2nd from 90-91. I kinda doubt they were dating. There would be rumors about that. FP has shown love 2 Mariah. In late 90's interviews he would mention her as one of his favorite artists and there was also a pic of him posing with her and Jay-Z from 1998/1999. I don't see why y'all are thrown back by Mariah in those pix. She looked like that when she came out in 1990...she just didn't dress like that or do her hair like that.

COMMON SENSE - I Used To Love H.E.R. Resurrection (1994?)

Not even envisioned...it's the way he made them!

WRECKX-N-EFFECT - Wreckx Shop (Remix) (Original Version From) Hard Or Smooth (1992) Classic early 90's Hip-Hop.

I'm with you on that! This should be the album that LL Cool J and Fresh Prince finally work together. I'm tempted to start a Facebook cause on this! If I did, would you guys support it. This would be a good time to push the return of the Fresh Prince again. We've kinda let it die.
