My cellphone has a monotone ring so half of those ringtones don't sound anything like the real song. "No Ya Head" is the only FP song on my phone cuz it sounds really good. I have it on as my ringtone whenever a new FP project drops. I tried Yo! Home To Bel-Air, Just The Two of Us, Miami, and Will 2K but they all sounded bad on my phone. I also have Tatyana Ali's "Daydreamin'" as one of the ringtones on my phone.

Like i said, nothing personal...thanx 4 not being offended. I just think it's important 2 keep things respectable. Not everybody wants 2 read stuff like that so anything on this board that is explict will get edited. So knowing that, don't nobody bug out if u chose 2 cuss...cuz it will get edited. I'm one of LL's biggest fans, so i'm totally on yourside on that. He's a legend...he can do a party track, a mainstream track, a street track, and so on. He's done it all and he still keeps things fresh. LL said in a recent interview that he wanted 2 make and album that waz just "hot." That's why most of it is polished trax that could crossover. That dosen't make him less credible, it's not like he's some greedy, money-hungry sell-out artist. He's being himself and standing up 4 what he thinks Hip-Hop should be about. After all, he's not exactly doing the popular thing by releasing albums without explict lyrics stickers.

I don't know much about Joe Budden but he seems 2 have some old skool sensibility 2 him. I remember 1 song by him and a few cameos that i liked, but i also remembered a song or 2 by him i didn't like. I'd like 2 hear the song tho.'

Let's not 4get Eminem's trax about killing his wife. That's wack. However, i do think "Bonnie & Clyde '97" and "K.I.M." are hilarious. Disturbing but funny. U can only do something so much until it's annoying. "Kill You" is kinda messed up. Oh well, look at his life...it's a mess.

Good....then u can buy the album like every other fan. :nhawong:

LL is a vetran. He can't exactly do things the same way. He's changed his style lke ever great inovator and there's heart behind all of that. How u gonna diss him for making a respecable move like that. Look what happened when he did G.O.A.T....a street album, he got ignored. And watch the language. Nuttin' personal bigted, just edited those 4 letter words. Keep it clean like a washin' machine!!

Yeah, Mr. Magic actually featured the ORIGINAL "Girls Ain't Nothing But Trouble" on one of his many successfull old school compilation albums. DJ Red Alert is one of Hip-Hop most well known old school DJ's. He's not really a producer but u can find his work on that Jungle Brother's track and on A Tribe Called Quest's 1st album. He known more as a radio DJ personality like Mr. Magic.

Well, in 2002, Jon B let Epic put out a Greatest Hits album by him 2 fulfill his contract with them so he could get off the label. He waz furious that they ignored his 2001 album "Pleasures U Like." He had a hit with "Don't Talk" but after that, it waz hard 2 hear from him. He got mad and dropped off the face of the earth. He is still signed 2 Babyface's wife's imprint label but they are no longer working with Epic. I havn't seen a video or heard a song on the radio...but hopefully he gets treated right. The album is definitly quality, i've been listening 2 it alot the last few days.

I like VH-1 "And You Don't Stop" series. I think they've done a better job than MTV and even BET would have done. I think they do a fair job of being honest about each era but i agree that they spent 2 much time on the East Coast / West Coast Feud and overlooked a some artists and albums of the 90's. It's funny 2 see your grades 4 the episodes. I don't think it waz really VH-1 fault. Look were the music went. They had no choice but 2 downgrade what they were focusing. While they space out who is interviewed 4 each era, the artists of certain eras seem 2 dominate the episodes. None of the really old skool artists stuck around 4 the later episodes. Most likely cuz they didn't have anything nice 2 say about the commerical trash of recent years. Only the fellaz who seemed 2 stay busy and in the public eye like FP, DMC, and Hammer got some shine in the later episodes. It's also sad that only a few of the newer guys had something 2 say about the old skool Some of them clearly aren't even skooled on old skool...very sad.

VH-1 aired "TV Moments: Eminem." I watched the 1st half of it and it reminded me how much i used 2 love Eminem's music. He waz so creative and funny...AND HIP-HOP. It makes me il 2 think about how dope he waz and how much he sux now.

Grandmaster Caz is a old skool DJ. He waz actually in the VH-1 episodes "And You Don't Stop." Melle Mel is a lyrical legend. He's a part of Grandmaster Flash + The Furious Five. He's one of the illest emcees Hip-Hop has ever seen. He has the strongest verse on legendary track "The Message."

Hey rappers!! Follow FP's example. Maybe if u stop callin' the ladies B!+ches + Ho's, maybe u'd get a real lady by your side. Props 2 FP!!

Oh yeah...and Brandy ain't on the track. Where'd u come up with that?

Jamie...no offense...but what's up with the stupid ?uestions. Everytime u post, u make a poll or ask a ?uestion and it's usually something u already asked or it a ?uestion that has a very well-known answer. Please contribute 2 the board and stop spamming it with silly stuff.

I havn't gotten that far down in my collection...here's a list of others i came across. FP - Candy BOW WOW + JAGGED EDGE - Hey Little Momma FOXY BROWN - If I... FOXY BROWN - No Ones PEP LOVE - The Birds & The Bees NICK CANNON + MARY J BLIGE - Whenever You Need Me NICK CANNON - My Rib NICK CANNON - If U Need Me PUFF DADDY + R. KELLY - Satisfy You QUEEN PEN - All My Love

Nah, i think the stuff should keep comin.' With The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air just hitting Nick At Nite, i think the timing is perfect. 100s of people want 2 see the series on DVD but the interest has sparked more since it hit Nick At Nite. Look at the success of I, Robot and Sharktale. They are both great films and they are totally different...and big succeses. And the music...well, that's where it's at. He serves as an alternative 2 the trash on the charts. He's making music 4 himself and 4 people in general. Most cats are making music for the money and fame...and that's why they have or will fall flat on their face. Besides, with all the hype behind him, the music is the only way 2 meet the man himself. Movies certainly can't do it. It's been a huge year for FP...i sugest he keep it comin.'

K, consider it closed.

What's with all these simple polls?? They're gettin' a lil' played out.

I wanted 2 come up with a list of Hip-Hop love songs. I'm not talking about songs about girls and sex tho'...i'm about songs with some decent subject matter. For example... LL COOL J "I Need Love" JJ+FP "The Things U Do" Kid N' Play "Gotta Good Thing Goin' On" TLC "Somethin' U Wanna Know" JJ+FP "Can't Wait To Be With You" Heavy D + The Boyz "Got Me Waiting" LL Cool J + Boyz II Men "Hey Lover" A+ "All I Need" Fresh Prince "Candy" Fresh Prince "Chasing Forever" Marky Mark "Best of My Love" LL Cool J + New Edition "Candy Girl" Fresh Prince, Jada, + Tra-Knox "1,000 Kisses" Bow Wow + Jagged Edge "My Baby" Brand Nubian "Always Mine" There's alot i didn't list but will soon. Please add any trax that come 2 mind. I wouldn't want them 2 be anymore light weight than "Candy" and no rawer than Method Man + Mary J. Bliges "All I Need." Feel free 2 also list R-N-B trax featuring emcees like Jon B + 2Pac "Are You Still Down" Carl Thomas + LL Cool J "She Is"

I feel u on that. 2Pac is one of the most versital emcees (as opposed 2 what many commercial fans have been exposed 2. Jon B is one of those smooth artists who can do it all from the commercial R-N-B 2 neosoul styled R-N-B. No offense 2 R. Kelly and Jay-Z, but i got their Best of Both Worlds album and it dosen't have much 2 offer (and i'm a pretty big R. Kelly fan). Jon B + 2Pac would have come up with an amazing album!!

I wazn't tryna come across that way but i see what u mean. Forgive me 4 that. Just speakin' my mind.

I hate shifty DJ's who don't play what's requested. I used 2 go 2 these clubs for teens when i waz younger. I'd always request old skool and true skool Hip-Hop but they'd always ignore me. I used 2 go around with petitions 2 get my songs played. It waz also a great way 2 start talking 2 girls in the club. :roll:

Yeah, i hope they air all of them back 2 back one nite. VH-1 is airing tons of related things they've done in the past. They were airing ULTIMATE ALBUM feat. Run-DMC "Raising Hell," Behind The Music:Aaliyah, and so on...so check it. VH-1 Hip-Hop Honors airs this upcomeing Tuesday. I've seen the commercials and it looks dope.

I never even heard of that track u just mentioned. Fill me in!!

Very cool. That makes me wanna hear the song even more...just when i waz being patient. Thanx 4 sharing that!! Sounds like something creative is on the way!! If FP did more than 1 track with him...i trust Kwame has some real skillz on the boards.
