This is hilarious.

It's saying the file is too big too email and it won't upload on YouTube. I'm insanely sick and throwing in the towel on this ideal. :(

JAMAL - Keep It Real Last Chance, No Breaks (1995) Someone tell me the 90's didn't have the best Hip-Hop music and I'll fly to your house and punch you in the face.

Well, I clicked a bunch of buttons Movie Maker and things seemed to make sense even though I didn't know what I'm doing. For some reason I couldn't get the video up on YouTube so I emailed it directly to Kev. The email sent immediately, as if there was nothing attached to it. I can only hope it sent properly.

I just started downloading Movie Maker. It looks like it's gonna take awhile. I understand Kev is working on a timetable, so I understand if my video can't make it on there, but I'll be able to try tonight and tomorrow if he can work with that kind of time.

Thanks for the advice, Tim. My cousin did some work on my computer years ago and we wiped everything I didn't use (Movie Maker) off of it. I'll see if I can get it back on here and find another way to get the video up.. I bumped the wire on my memory card reader, so I think is messed up the upload on YouTube...lol. Who knew this was gonna be so difficult?!

I'm pretty sure I'm not gonna be able to be a part of this video. My computer simply isn't built to upload it. Around 11:30 last night I started uploading it. It's now 5:54 the following evening and it's only 40% uploaded. It went from 3 hours, to 6 hours, to 19 hours, and now 28 hours. All this for a four minute video that consumed my entire evening to shoot....lol. I wish there was some other way. I can't email it because the file is too big.

Okay, mine is about the length of Jim's and I can't do it again...lol. I just spent my entire evening changing what I was saying to condense it...lol. The thing is, I never upload videos online, so I'm wondering how I can get this to Kev. It's too big for email, so I'm uploading it to YouTube. Which is apparently going to take 6 hours on my slow computer. Any suggestions for me? I only have NOW because I need to get to bed soon, plus I have working the morning.

I KEEP TALKING TOO FREAKING LONG FOR MY VIDEO!!!! :::JJ+FP fanboy problems:::

I like this. It's moody and honest, yet the music doesn't sound too moody. It definitely has an edge on. She mentioned this new EP a couple months ago, so I like to see something coming off it. She's worked on previous albums that never got finished or put out. I think it's definitely her time.

I love the video, Jim. You are conversational and transparent in the whole thing. There's no reason to not be pleased with it. I just realized I need to do mind tomorrow. Once I get off work, I'm gonna see if I can make it happen.

Dope interview! Thanks for sharing this. Skee-Lo is good people. I'm glad his still getting paid for his past greatness and I hope he spots like this get him more attention.

I loooooooooooooove this song. The music is solid, fresh, and retro all at the same time. It's got a tad of a 90's vibe. Willow sounds great...real confident. This is also one of my favorite raps by Jaden. Even with a mid-tempo flow, there's a bit more "life" and "attack" behind his delivery. Great song. Isn't it about time for an album?

I'm happy to see a new episode. The interviews did get a little repetitive. I like the energy DJ Ferno brings.

Tyrese was on Arsenio the other night and had some good things to say about our favorite emcee. http://www.arseniohall.com/video/interviews/3415_Tyrese_Opens_Up_About_Paul_Walker_s_Death/index.html?011413

Yeah, if I'm able to do something, it'll take a little more time.

I thought I posted this earlier today...but I guess I never actually clicked "Post." LOL The occasion that brought them together is sad, but it's good to see them together. It's a shame FP couldn't make it. It would have also been nice to see Janet make it and all the bad blood be washed away. If anything will do it, it's this loss.

Dray (or Krazy Drayz) from Das EFX just leaked a new song called "Believe" for an upcoming project. Not only the song dope, but he samples some of FP's classic interview dialogue in the being and the end. I think a lot of people here are going to love this song. When he shared the song on his Facebook, I suggested he get the 'Prince on the remix. Let's hope he reaches out to him. :) Let this bless your ears... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2yATDjNrzMU&feature=youtu.be

I'd love to have something like that, but since shows are protected by copyright laws, very few of them get any of them documented. I have some footage of my favorite shows, but the quality is terrible/embarrassing. None of those are my videos are mine, I simply dug around on YouTube to find them...lol I'm mostly focused in theater, but I'm always interested in film. They are two completely different animals. 99% of everything shooting in my area is indie stuff, which typically have lackluster stories. I haven't a fan of those movies when I see them, doing it locally certainly isn't very motivating. Thanks for the feedback!

I just wanted to share my acting website with you guys. After it was pointed out that you've never heard me before in the post about Jeff's b-day, it prompted me to share it. You can't REALLY hear me on my website, but there is a short video for The Church of Diminishing Marginal Returns. I actually debated putting it up because it was the first rehearsal that we were off-book and since I was in another show at the time, I didn't really have confidence behind the lines. I'm using a high pitch voice for a very goodie-goodie character, so it's nothing like me, but it's something. I actually kind of hate it. Maybe in the future I'll have some more performance footage up. I hate watching myself, so I'm always hesitant to do it. Anyways, the website is really just in place so I can put it on my acting resume. That way a director who doesn't know me can reference it and find out more about me and see some pictures of my performances (since some people lie about their experience). I take my acting seriously, yet I don't have any professional training. I think the website is an honest reflection of the kind of performer I am. I do have good following in the area, but I don't see people checking my website for updates...lol http://adamjblackstock.wix.com/actor I'm not a webdesigner, so it is basic...and on a free website, but let me know if you have any suggestions.

I didn't even get to think about the video today....hopefully tomorrow. I'm not 100% sure I'm even capable of getting a video up, but I'm gonna try. I definitely want to be a part of this. I think everyone's videos look great and I think it'll really surprise Jeff. Hopefully he's share it with FP. Kev, my video won't have music to it, so I'll get with you about the music that plays under it. It would make sense if it's something that fits what I talk about, but I'm not sure I'll actually go that route...lol. We'll see. Tim, how did you know I was probably going to talk about Homebase? LOL Brakes, I was debating trying to shoot my video on my sofa or in my music room. I was thinking the music room, because the background would show that I'm a big music fan and might be interesting to Jazzy. I thought about even placing JJ+FP easter eggs all throughout the background....but after seeing how great yours looked on the sofa, I'm starting to have second thoughts. One last idea. How are we capping the video off at the very end? If we don't have anything that kinda ties it all together, would it look good if everyone did an alternate take simply saying "Happy birthday, Jeff" where they could quickly be played back to back, giving it a feeling of unity? Another idea would be to split up the screen so we are all on it at the end saying it in unison. If we do that, we need someone to share a video here so we can all say it a similar way so that that it sounds like we are are all saying it together. I imagine that might be an editing nightmare though.

Kel just shared this. It looks like he has some good things lined up. Some of it's music related and one of the projects looks like a fun indie movie that's loaded with legends. http://kelspencer.fanbridge.com/campaigns/show.php?id=1055833&sid=89210721

Nice videos. I've only every used my camera for photography, but I'm gonna try to set some time aside tomorrow and see if I can't submit my own video.

I'm pretty sure I never knew that PM Dawn video existed. Man, I miss new music from them. While they were unpredictable in the changes they'd made with each album, it always made sense. One of the most original groups in all of music. The quality of their later music is just as great as their early stuff. And now for something completely different...lol EMINEM - I'm Shady The Slim Shady LP (1999)

I saw this ages ago when it came out! Wow, thanks for bringing back a forgotten jam.
