  1. That is ill...looks like da 'Prince has found his way home. Even if it isn't the album cover, it's a promo shot 4 the album which means the album cover will look very similar and have the same vibe. About that 1st cover featuring Jeff...it looks like he's standing in the middle of the road. I hope Floetry hasn't jacked the ATOJ car, he may need 2 watch his back!
  2. Yeah, i got it. The people who say that don't have the money should have known better...we've know the release date 4ever. One thing i read a few years ago is that online orders don't count towards the overall sales. Is that true?
  3. SAMANTHA MUMBA - Don't Need You To Tell Me I'm Pretty I gotta ignore the title of this song and say that she is absolutly gorgous.
  4. I don't really know what 2 expect...but i've never cared about numbers. I just think it's important 2 go out and see it the weekend it drops. I'm seeing it 2morrow nite and probably on V-Day as well.
  5. For those of you who plan on getting it, it's only $9.99 at Circuit City. It's only gonna be at that sale price for 2day (Friday) and Saturday. Save some money and get it now. I think my review is pretty honest, so unless it sounds like something u want, don't get it. From my knowledge on people's taste, i only see a few of the people on these boards liking it.
  6. Ha, my mom has a Ford Taurus 2!! Anyways, i've always loved "Y'all Know" cuz it's a straight forward rap song. It's not flashy or overdone...it's Hip-Hop at it's simplest and it served as a very cool intro 2 BWS. I'd never call it the best song, but it's defintly dope.
  7. :roll: Welcome 2 the board!! I think FP will still get by without the support of one Canadian radio station.
  8. Don't trip...just vote 4 it, support it, and get the word out there.
  9. FP's style isn't really any different. It's just the year 2005, ya know? His lyrics are actually more like his older stuff than his stuff on Columbia. The sound is experimental, but FP has taking his music 2 different places on every album. He's not selling out his style at all. If u got down with him during his reign on Columbia, i could see how "Switch" may seem as a departure from his more recent stuff...but he's not doing anything his hasn't done b4...he's just more focused right now. There isn't gonna be any cussing or gangsta rubbish on the album.
  10. Yeah, that waz taking on the set of Enemy of The State. 1997/1998.
  11. DESTINY'S CHILD - Soilder VH-1 aired it...so luckly it waz the Radio Edit without T.I. and Lil' Wayne. Still the weakest song on the album, but the lack of presence from those garbage rappers makes it a lil' better.
  12. I think the Making-Of episode waz during the 4th or 5th season. I've only seen it aired once, which i waz lucky enuff 2 have taped. I'm assuming they'll include it on the season it goes with, but there's no way 2 look that far ahead at this point.
  13. Where did u read she waz in the "Summertime" video. I'm not buying it...that video waz filled with family and friends from Philly.
  14. FP will never go gangsta. He's dissed gangsta rap his entire career. There's a rumor that his stuff will be harder every album...this ain't nothin' new.
  15. Earlier i waz listening 2... Sam Cooke - Portrait of A Legend It features a decade worth of hits from the legendary soul singer. "You Send Me" is my joint...but it also has "Bring It On Home To Me" which waz covered in ALI...and "A Change Gone Come" which played in ALI. Now i just popped in the Hitch soundtrack...cuz i just wrote that review on the I Make This Look Good board.
  16. I got the Hitch Soundtrack the other day. I have a feeling most people here won't like it much. I think it's biggest weakness is that it dosen't flow at all. Mostly good music, but they are mixing brand new songs next 2 old songs and it just dosen't make sense. It should have been all new music or mostly just old music. Here's my review... AMERIE - 1 Thing Apparently this is the 1st single. Amerie's 2002 album is amazing. Sugary sweet vocals and timeless production. This songs dosen't represent that at all. The music is high energy, percussion filled music with no soul 2 it. She also dosen't get 2 show off her vocal ability on the song at all. Good song, but nothing special..and not nearly as good as most of the stuff on her debut album. JOHN LEGEND - Don't You Worry About A Thing This one waz waz produced by Will.I.Am of The Black Eyed Peas. His music is usually great, but this beat isn't as good as most of his work. John Legend also dosen't sound at home compared 2 the stuff on his album. Very average song. EARTH, WIND, & FIRE feat. KELLY ROWLAND + SLEEPY BROWN - This Is How I Feel Ahhhh...now we're talking. This song is pretty good. It's got a nice, retro beat u can groove 2. Sleepy Brown sounds very boring, like alot of the other stuff he's done. He's a good talent, but alot of his stuff seems boring. Kelly Rowland sounds great on the track and really outshines Sleepy Brown. MARK RONSON feat. GHOSTFACE KILLAH, NATE DOGG, TRIFE DA GOD, and SAIGON - Ooh Wee This beat is really nice. They could have taken it 1 step forward, but it's very good. The talent on the track is kinda forgetable tho'. Nobody really stands out. HEAVY D + THE BOYZ - Now That We Found Love This is one of my favorite songs of all time from one of my favorite groups of all time. Heavy D + The Boyz with Aaron Hall on the hook and Teddy Riley behind the boards. His waz song all i listened 2 back in 1991, along with "Summertime," "Mama Said Knock You Out" and "2 Legit 2 Quit." It dosen't really flow with the soundtrack at all...but i can't wait 2 see how it's incorporated in the movie. MELENI SMITH - Happy This is my favorite song on the soundtrack. I don't know anything about the artist, but she's got skillz. It's a breezy, radio-friendly R-N-B song. Look 4 this song and give it a listen. LOVE IT! LOVE IT! LOVE IT! THE O'JAYS - Love Train Classic R-N-B funk from a legendary group. This is where the oldies kick in. Great song, but i've heard it 100 times. THE TEMPTATIONS - I Can't Get Next To You Another oldie. I like this song, but of all of the hits The Tempations had in the 60's...this is one of my leave favs. JIMMY CLIFF - You Can Get It If you Really Want Never heard this song b4. Don't really care 4 it...skip it everytime. MARTHA REEVES + THE VANDELLAS - It's Easy To Fall In Love (With A Guy Like You) Back 2 the really good oldies. Great song. EARTH, WIND, + FIRE - Reasons Here's a dose of 70's R-N-B soul. Nice song...but not one of my fav oldies. OMARION - Never Gonna Let You Go (She's A Keepa) Man, i waz expecting something dope 4 this song. As a fan of B2K and the Platnium Status crew, i expected this 2 be the best song on the album. However, it's got Omarion singing over a retro-funk type song. No where near as great as "O." KEVIN LYTTLE - Turn Me On (Low Tide Remix) Here we are with a remix of a song that waz huge over the past summer. This is a dance/club remix of the track. I like it alot....alot, alot!! FP served as the Executive Music Producer while James "J.L. - The Hammer" Lassiter waz one of the Soundtrack Executive Producers. Both of them are listed as producers of the movie. The soundtrack is also an Overbrook produced (naturally). The CD insert has a few pix from the movie in it.
  17. It isn't in heavy rotation and there hasn't been much time 2 get it on there. Just keep supporting it and get others involved. "Switch" is fine...don't lose faith, it only debuted a few days ago.
  18. I don't see what they could do for special features. Granted they should have had more people involved 4 the documentary...but isn't really anything they could put on it. After all, it waz the 1st season, they probably don't have 2 much backstage stuff that would amount 2 much. And i don't think JJ+FP music videos belonged on there at all. After all, in future releases, i'm sure we can expect those behind-the-scenes and the 100th Episode special on the respetive seasons. They'll probably do like In Living Color and have a documentary for each season.
  19. Storytelling has always been FP's strong point. It's still there 2...just look at the "Willennium Interlude" and "Act Like You Know." Ain't a thing changed.
  20. There really isn't a difference in the music...they just take the beat out at certain parts o the song. Musically the 12" Mix is the best in my opinion...it's just longer with background vocals and more music.
  21. Yeah, that is simply trash. Is that from a tabloid magazine i assume? If it's not, it's obvious that overseas newpapers either have no sense of humor or are 2 stupid 2 undestand American humor. The funny thing is, the author's e-mail address is at the end of the article. I think we should all e-mail then and instult their reporting skillz.
  22. Well, the Single Edit and Video Version are both shorter versions of the song, but the there is part of the music taking out from under certain parts of the song. Unless u pay attention, u wouldn't even notice. Jeff's rap waz shot during the video...not as part of the song. :dunno:
