  1. I love Rihanna. Here 1st 2 albums were very good in my opinion. I liked the 3rd one as well but I hated that she was stepping away from her dancehall roots and was being marketed as a pop star which turned her into one. Her style and hair has gotten weird and I'm craving the vibe her earlier stuff had. I saw the pix last week. The fairest thing I can say is ..."interesting."
  2. Am I the only one who feels akward reading posts of when fans get rid of JJ+FP stuff?
  3. MICHAEL JACKSON - This Is It This Is It (2009) Seeing this 2nite after work!!
  4. MICHAEL JACKSON - She's Out of My Life (Demo) This Is It (1979/2009) They could have just called this the acoustic version. It's amazing! Of the 6 unreleased tracks, this is my fav!
  5. It comes out tomorrow!!! Who is hyped?!?! I know I am. Post your reviews here after you've seen it. Just to get things started, here's an article AOL posted... Michael Jackson Proves He's Still King With 'This Is It' October 23, 2009 | By: Thomas DiChiaraComments (187) PRINT EMAIL MORE There's a reason Michael Jackson is, was and forever will be known as the King of Pop. And, judging by early reactions to a sneak peek at Jackson's eagerly anticipated concert-rehearsal documentary 'This Is It,' that reason will be on full, moon-walking display when the film hits theaters across the globe for a limited two-week run on Oct. 28. This week, critics were treated to 12 minutes of footage from the top-secret doc that shows MJ rigorously preparing for a comeback concert series entitled 'This Is It,' which was to have kicked off at London's O2 Arena a mere two weeks after the pop star's death. And those 12 minutes were all it took to get critics psyched out of their minds. According to The New York Daily News, the brief glimpse "shows the King of Pop in regal form, mapping out dance moves while confidently singing his classic songs," and depicts two song-and-dance numbers that "firmly establish Jackson as a performer still in control of his talents in the last days of his life." The numbers depicted are the 1983 ballad 'Human Nature,' in which Jackson employs, in the words of the Daily News, "his falsetto vocal with the sweet grace of his youth," and an up-tempo rendition of 1987's 'The Way You Make Me Feel,' a flashy number set against a backdrop of the New York City skyline and featuring Jackson utilizing such iconic MJ moves as the finger-snap and his patented twirl. Ticket presales for 'This Is It' have dominated online retailers such as Fandango and Moviefone for weeks now -- already more than recouping Sony the $60 million it paid for rights to the film. With insiders predicting that the film could gross $250 million worldwide in its first five days, there's not doubt 'This Is It' will be big. The only question is: How big? Call us crazy, but we're going to go with ... gargantuan.
  6. "Don't download / go out and buy the..."...DVD.
  7. In all my years of digging I've never seen a promo with any additional songs. I'll rededicate myself to this just incase.
  8. 98 DEGREES - Why Are We Stil Friends? The Collection (2002) I've always loved this song. They should get things back together since Jive isn't pushing for Nick's newest album to come out (due nearly a year ago).
  9. What a trip down memory lane! This brings back good feelings.
  10. Man, I remember some of these articles at the time they were out and the 1996 one u sent me a couple years ago. I'm totally in BWS mode right now. What a great time. Hip-Hop had been taking hits commercially for a few years but alot of artists back then at least had some talent and/or dope beats under them. FP's spark was being rekindled. What a great time. I remember ordering that Special Edition of BWS like 4 or 5 times before they stopped sending me the regular album because the version with those other tracks doesn't exist. Isn't it time for a Big Willie Style double disc platnium edition featuring a bonus disc with remixes, unreleased tracks, and a DVD featuring videos, interviews, and performances from that era?
  11. There's a video online somewhere (maybe YouTube).
  12. AOL's Boombox had this article based on T-Boz's interview on Monique's show. This proves TLC was the thugs of the industry. Ha ha...they kick Puffy out of meetings in his heyday. --------------------------------------------------- TLC Member T-Boz Reveals Holding Clive Davis at Gunpoint Posted Oct 22nd 2009 5:45PM by Latifah MuhammadComments [51]Print | Email More Back in the 1990s, TLC became the top-selling girl group of all time, so they had some power. So much power, in fact, that once when the group didn't get money owed them by their record label, they held storied record executive Clive Davis at gunpoint. Tionne "T-Boz" Watkins recently hit up comedian Monique's late night show to spill the beans behind this moment in TLC's colorful history. "TLC had generated, on 'Crazy Sexy Cool,' $75 million and they gave us $50,000 a piece," Watkins said. "I was like, what the hell? So, of course, Lisa ['Left Eye' Lopes] was the ringleader, like, 'We need to go get our money. I need to know where my money is at!'" "We had the limo driver, he was the getaway car," Watkins continued. "So we went up there, and Puffy was the one that snitched us out because we kicked him out of the meeting. It was rude -- we interrupted Puffy's meeting. We were getting sick and sweating, and we were really working hard for [the] money and we wanted to know who the hell had our check. [LaFace Records head] L.A. [Reid] said [then-Arista chief] Clive had it, [so] that's where we went." In the end, the girls prevailed and, lucky for them, weren't arrested for their stickup. "They did give us some money, but they still took it back and recouped it, but it's all good," she explained. "You live and learn in the business." Since the 2002 death of Lopes, the group famous for hits like 'Waterfalls' and 'No Scrubs' has maintained a low profile. Last weekend, T-Boz and fellow surviving member Rozonda "Chilli" Thomas performed their first concert in seven years at the Justin Timberlake and Friends charity event in Las Vegas. T-Boz and Chilli are currently prepping an upcoming tour.
  13. Is anyone intersted in taking this further? Seriously. My online time these days is very limited. I don't know where to to and what to do. I'm willing to do stuff but I need some input. And at the same time, if someone has an idea, why don't they do it themselves? I just don't feel that the board is really commited to this anymore.
  14. I doubt it was that girl. She didn't seem 2 be a big fan of his music and movies in the sense that whatever she said about him was pretty general. I think she genuinly loves FP but that she's amping up the character for TV. She doesn't look like she could have much of a dark side. Loretta in the song sounded 2 have that crazy dark side.
  15. I rather see him do something good instead of just anything.
  16. FP has been getting in2 some weird stuff this year....first Lady Ga Ga...now soaps...ha ha.
  17. Love the pic! I don't know if I get that network. If I do, I'll be sure to catch this. Thanx 4 posting.
  18. I remember seeing a shirt from He's The DJ in a record store YEARS ago. The one time i went there to buy it, they were all gone. I do like that shirt u posted. I just may have 2 get one of those.
  19. I remember when someone thought that FP saying "click" as in her hanging up the phone was taken as her cocking a gun and killing herself...ha ha. I never took anything in the song as saying she's dead. I think if that were the case he would have put it in the lyrics.
  20. I mentioned this a few weeks ago on the What Are You Listening To post. I was happy to see VH-1 airing this video. Since then the video is still being aired and I've even heard it on the radio. I don't think they've had a hit here since the mid-90's. When i 1st heard the song i initially fell in love with the feel-good vibe.
  21. I think about half of Mario's album is good...the other half sounds like the crap on the radio. R. Kelly's "Double Up" was awful. The newest "singles" weren't very good either. I think he's lost his touch temporarily.
