I saw the article on this in the new Vibe but hadn't read it yet. Weird voting set up....but lets support real Hip-Hop anyway.

Actually, he didn't really diss him on "The Real Slim Shady"...pop music fans just thought he did and then Eminem started playing in 2 it. I saw on Facebook that Jazzy was going 2 Eminem's release part...but having him as a guest at his show is, like Ted said, "interesting."

Hmmm...not really sure what 2 think here. I'm not a Jay-Z fan, but i could never imagin him being a real battle rapper. I don't even remember the stuff he did towards Nas. I can't imagin him being a worthy contender 2 LL. I can't wee LL working under Jay-Z willingly if all this was true. After 10, LL's promotion quickly went downhill. I only ever thought their was tension there because LL, being a legend, had 2 work under Jay-Z. I mean, look at Russell Simmons and then look at Jay-Z. That's a big adjustment. Look what the label did and didn't do under Jay-Z. It seemed like the whole label was set up just 2 benifit Jay-Z. In the meantime, i'm just gonna wait for LL 2 change his mind and do a full album again.

Has anyone else read the interview he did with Vibe (the issue that has him on the cover)? It's actually very interesting and i've gained some of my respect back for him. He opens up totally about the last few years. He goes 2 a real vunerable place about his addiction to drugs and how it effected his work ethic and expectations for his music as well as how he treated people. He actually shows respect towards his mother for the 1st time ever since he himself had an addiction. He talks about how he wallowed in the depression of losing Proof and how he was making all about himself. He talks about how his life was just out of control after being in rehab and the hospital, gaining weight, losing weight, and nearly dying. He talks about finding God (he rocks a cross on the cover of the magazine) and also talks about how Hip-Hop excites him once again and how his the music he was making was boring, lazy, and depressing. He talks about not really keeping an ear open 2 Hip-Hop but that he loves LL Cool J's and T.I.'s recent albums. He talks about his style and mixing things up. He says that he's only produced one song in the past few years and that it was "Beautiful" and that he only included it because he felt it was the best song he did while being addicted 2 drugs and that his other material just took him 2 a dark and depressing place. He says he has 2 albums ready 2 release. I can't say i'm hyped 2 hear him like i waz back in 1999 but i do have a genuine interest in this new album. He kinda sounded like a smarter, wiser, and more mature verison of himself from when he 1st broke out.

Is that the official "Can't Wait To Be With You" music video? I've never seen it. What is the purpose of having silly C-Level look-a-likes performing their song for serious promotion? The kid with a mustache singing Chrispher Williams' part was almost dead on...haha. The akward "Summertime" and "Boom! Shake The Room" clips only added 2 the ridiculousness.

Thanx Big Willie! There's a few songs on there that i don't have. I know not all of it was officially released. I might come 2 u with a ?uestion or 2 in the next week or so.

...actually, i love the 2nd verse...but the 1st and 3rd one kinda suck.

The beat is dope. I'd like 2 hear alot of other emcees rapping over it tho.' I feel it's 2 good for Game. Flow wise, i like him...but he could do so much more with his lyrics.

Ha ha...i agree wit u Ted. Anything 2 get FP back on the mic in a mainstream way. I'll listen 2 the new Eminem album when it comes out. I highly doubt i'll wanna buy it tho.' It would take alot of backtracking for him 2 actually be dope again...much less taken seriously. I'm definintely interested in peeping this "Beautiful" track that everyone talking about.

I don't think i've ever heard of him going up against anyone famous. Only other up and comers that never got much of a break. Battling was a big part of him coming. On every album he's done he's addressed critics...but there was never much of a reason 2 really go at anyone. He's on his own level. I know there are interviews where he's talked about coming up battling.

Oh wow! This is dope. Already one of my fav Busta Rhymes joints of all time. Dope beat, great subject matter, flawless line up. Thank u!! Lovin' this!!

For some reason, even tho' i have high speed connection, the video/sound pauses every few seconds. I couldn't bare 2 watch more. But from what i heard, i loved the beat and i like his style. If there's other ways 2 check out more music, post it here. I'm intersted in hearing more.

This joint is fun. I will be getting this! Thanx!! Sugarhill Gang was working on an album in the late 90's...wonder whatever happened 2 that.

Haven't seen this in stores yet...still lookin.' I wonder if they are selling it in Nike stores. It'll be the only reason i shop at Nike...ha ha.

FP brought his whole crew up with him tho'...for the most part. He was taking Charlie with him all over the world thru' the mid-2000's. JL is his right hand man. O is involved with his projects as well. And i'm not sure if i'm remembering it right, but wasn't Mimi from Philly? Was Ice Cream Tee?

I do own all that stuff listed. What i really need help on is specific music tracks, remixes, etc. For example, Jazzy did that intro for DJ Revolution (which i purchased the official MP3 of) but since this list is out of date, it's not listed. I'm not worried so much about the actual items i put at the bottom of that list, i'm worried about specific tracks, songs, remixes, etc that are missing from the list. I think the area that i'm missing out the most is Jazzy's stuff. He's produced and scratched on some stuff that i know i've forgotten about.

Album and Remix album ordered.

I've never been a 007 fan, but i can't imagin any of them playing it. I need 2 see something Puffy is in because i still can't think of him as an actor.

HEAVY D - Big Daddy (Go Go Mix) Big Daddy (Remix) CD Promo (1997)

ELLIOT YAMIN - Let Me Love Fight For Love (2009) I'm in love with this album.

I just wanted 2 let everyone know that i'm starting this list all over again from scratch. It'll include all b-sides, remixes, a cappellas, instrumentals, and alternate versions that i own. Every track that is on CD will have the time length. Anything that is only available on vinyl or cassette won't have the time length until i eventually get it all converted 2 CD. This list hasn't been updated in years. There are definitely tracks that i have that are not on this. There are also tracks on this list that, as far as i know, are only available as MP3's (officially available or otherwise). I was hoping all of u could help me by listing EVERYTHING JJ+FP (2gether and solo) that is NOT on this list. There are a few things that i'm missing and will get them if i can after they've been listed. Please use this post 2 list everything. It'll take me a week or 2 to finish this new list. THANX IN ADVANCE!!

The beat is decent but nothing special. Dre sounds good....Eminem still has an annoying flow going on here.

Already gone.

Thanx everyone. I apologize for missing most of the B-Day posts here. Allow me 2 use my B-Day 2 wish everyone a Happy B-Day...ha ha. 2day has seriously sucked. I don't even wanna get in2 it. Just an awful day...10 more hours 2 turn it around.

Wow, i can't believe u went there...ha ha. I remember buying that cassette from Pizza Hut back in the day...ha ha. Alot of good songs on this page of the post. I'm not listening 2 music right now. Just message from Joel Osteen before bed.
