I know what u are saying Joe...but the bottom line is this. Entertainers aren't any different from any of us. Love and respect are more powerful than money, fame, and idiots hiding in bushes that take pictures. So if anyone is using that kinda thing as an excuse...there isn't any real love there. And that whole "didn't have a father" thing is garbage. People who trap themselves in thier families past are just making excuses. What do your parents, grand parents, etc have anything 2 do with u in the here an now. I hope they are doing the right thing and then do things right.

Hopefully they've grown up and can do things right instead of embarasing themselves further and messing up each others lives even more. -------------------------------------------- Eminem and Kim Engaged Again?

AOL USERS CAN PEEP THE LINK http://celebrity.aol.com/people/ataol/gall...0010284,00.html Oscar hopeful Will Smith takes a shine to Oscar at Monday's annual Academy Award nominees luncheon at the Beverly Hilton Hotel. Smith, who is up for best actor for his role in The Pursuit of Happyness, joined fellow nominees including Leonardo DiCaprio, Helen Mirren and Jennifer Hudson for an afternoon of high-powered hobnobbing and group photos.

A-List Oscar Nominees Do Lunch By Arthur Spiegelman BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. (Feb. 6) -- The Oscar nominees gathered for their annual lunch in Beverly Hills Monday -- with Leonardo DiCaprio trading high-fives with 10-year-old Abigail Breslin and Steven Spielberg huddled in deep discussion with Peter O'Toole. Get Ready for the Big Night With News & Fashion Pics It was a high-powered group that included a who's who of Hollywood and the global stage -- actors Helen Mirren , Will Smith , Forest Whitaker , Penelope Cruz , Eddie Murphy , Mark Wahlberg and Alan Arkin, among others. Director Martin Scorsese was there and got one of the biggest cheers of the day from his fellow Oscar contenders. He has earned eight Academy Award nominations during his career, including one this year as best director for his work on "The Departed." Scorsese has yet to win, but many predict the dry spell will end when the 79th annual Academy Awards are given out later this month. Before sitting down to lunch, the nominees posed for several group photos, then were called to the stage in reverse alphabetical order, testing the patience of 10-year-old Breslin, nominated as best supporting actress in "Little Miss Sunshine." She appeared bored as the roll call of stars dragged on, until DiCaprio's name was called, which caused her to light up with her scene-stealing smile as he gave her a high-five on the way to the podium. In all, 140 nominees showed up at the Beverly Hilton, more than any previous Oscars luncheon. The guests included the man who has lost more Academy Awards than anyone else -- sound mixer Kevin O'Connell. Now nominated for a 19th time -- for his work on Mel Gibson 's "Apocalypto" -- O'Connell is hoping to win at last, and said his advice to first-time nominees was simple: "Never give up." "I've saved all my acceptance speeches, all the ones I've written on the backs of napkins and programs," he said. "They are all in a drawer at home. I have my thank-you written. If I win this year, I will thank my mother." He credited his mother with persuading him to give up firefighting for sound mixing 29 years ago. At a brief press conference that preceded the luncheon, several nominees half-jokingly said they intended to vote for themselves. "Who else is going to vote for me?" asked Djimon Hounsou , the African actor nominated for his supporting role in "Blood Diamond." Mirren, nominated as best actress for her role as Britain's Queen Elizabeth in "The Queen," called the whole idea an awful moral dilemma. "You think, 'I absolutely can't do this.' And then you think, 'Well, it's the one vote."' But as she spoke, she used her hands to form horns on her head to give her the look of a Satan. Supporting actor nominee Mark Wahlberg said his work in the crime thriller "The Departed" was drawn from real-life experience. As a youth, he was arrested by the Boston Police Department between 20 and 25 times, Wahlberg said. "When I got the call that I was nominated, I was able to call my parents and tell them good news," he said.

No doubt...i waz actually listening 2 some old school JJ+FP earlier 2day.

Sammie - Come With Me Sammie (2006) I remember when he waz just a kid. This song reminds me of late 90's R-N-B...love it.

Someone sent me and e-mail with this prayer in it. It's written in a way that it can apply 2 anyone in any situation. I just thought i'd post it here. ---------- Dear Lord, I thank You for this day. I thank You for my being able to see and to hear this morning. I'm blessed because You are a forgiving God and an understanding God. You have done so much for me and You keep on blessing me. Forgive me this day for everything I have done, said or thought that was not pleasing to you..... I ask now for Your forgiveness. Please keep me safe from all danger and harm. Help me to start this day with a new attitude and plenty of gratitude. Let me make the best of each and every day to clear my mind so that I can hear from You. Please broaden my mind that I can accept all things. Let me not whine and whimper over things I have no control over. And It's the best response when I'm pushed beyond my limits. I know that when I can't pray, You listen to my heart. Continue to use me to do Your will. Continue to bless me that I may be a blessing to others. Keep me strong that I may help the weak... Keep me uplifted that I may have words of encouragement for others. I pray for those that are lost and can't find their way. I pray for those that are misjudged and misunderstood. I pray for those who don't know You intimately. I pray for those that will delete this without sharing it with others. I pray for those that don't believe. But I thank you that I believe. I believe that God changes people and God changes things. I pray for all my sisters and brothers. For each and every family member in their households. I pray for peace, love and joy in their homes that they are out of debt and all their needs are met. I pray that every eye that reads this knows there is no problem, circumstance, or situation greater than God. Every battle is in Your hands for You to fight. I pray that these words be received into the hearts of every eye that sees it. God I love you and I need you, please come into my heart.

For anyone who picked this up at Best Buy and didn't get those bonus trax, u can go 2 Best Buy's website and contact a Customer Service Rep and they'll e-mail u back in a few days. They'll give u a link 2 a Koch/Deathrow website page that allows u 2 put your info in (along with info off your receipt) and in 2 to 3 weeks u'll get a replacement CD with the bonus trax. I got mine 2...so i'm happy.

That's a decent idea. But think they'd annouce it if they were doing something like that.

DIANA KING - Shy Guy (Live) Tougher & Live (1996) Man, this song never gets old.

:rofl:

I don't think anyone would consider this compitition. I just think it's rediculous that he'd say FP wazn't really a rapper anymore cuz he does so many movies as if it waz an insult...but that he'd choose movies over music totally and act like it's cool.

Spinners Singer Billy Henderson Dies Billy Henderson, 1939 - 2007 HOLLY HILL, Fla. (Feb. 3) - Singer Billy Henderson, a member of the band the Spinners who sang "I'll Be Around" and other hits, has died. He was 67. Henderson died Friday of complications from diabetes at a Daytona Beach health care facility, his wife, Barbara, said. The 1972 song "I'll Be Around" was part of a string of Top 20 Spinners hits that included "Could It Be I'm Falling in Love," "Then Came You" and "The Rubberband Man." The five-member band of high school friends formed in 1954 in Ferndale, Mich., a Detroit suburb. They went on to be nominated for six Grammy Awards and became the second black musical group to get a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Four of the original band members, including Henderson, continued to perform together until recently. He was dismissed from the group in 2004 after suing the group's corporation and business manager to obtain financial records.

U got it, i had some friends go thru' that and they've all come back safe. I'm sure your cousin will do the same.

DJ JAZZY JEFF - Official Myspace Groove (2006)

Either way...it's not like this is anything new...just ask Biz Markie, FP, and like 100's of over emcees and producers.

I didn't know this! Thanx 4 the heads up! I don't think there's any reason 2 expect him 2 perform...but i wonder if he'll be jigged out or rockin' baggies.

Does that bar even mean anything?!? :shrug: Either way, it doesn't seem like it has any ties 2 Hip-Hop's royalty.

Ahh...i see. Well, i don't see him jackin' someone else's beat, but who knows. I remember when a producer gave Mariah Carey a track that waz almost like one he gave to Xscape a few years before. U could tell the producer just recycled the track so that people who were fans of both of them wouldn't really notice unless u played the songs back 2 back or at the same time.
