I dont use smartphones, anyone know how to hear it?

I think he is terrified of rejection. He is obsessed with being succesfull, understandably when people have praised you, loved you and copied you since you were 17 years old. If he feels his music fails, he will be reluctant to try it again. When his "serious movies" failed, he went back to doing "sci-fi-superhero"-shiat because its where love came from. When he understood that he is no longer the hottest thing in the market and does no longer appeal to kids, he sent out his own to extend himself. And remember, the last time around he made music, "Lost & Found", he was more concerned with success than with the quality of the music - hence 50centish songs like "Switch" and "Party Starter" and the lack of Jeff. If he would release music today I'm not even sure it would be any good as he is without any doubt separeted from his roots and on a weird, confusing path to forgottenness.

Saw it yesterday. Like with 98% of all Hollywood movies the first half hour is really good before it turns into this painful, boring mess that really force you into complete apathy regarding the story and the characters. Its bad, its been done before and there is no way of judging Will's performance since the script is ****.

I've never really liked Will's movies: not only does he pick bad projects, but he is also below average as an actor. A few of his movies and performances are okay but in general really "meh". Just like with his rapping, his greatness is not in the technique, content or talent, it is more about pure, raw charisma. This charisma dies when it becomes obvious that you are very interested in money, exploiting your children and doing pretentious movies that he cant pull of because he is not the Morgan Freeman he believes he is every second movie, neither is he the superhero from the others. Until he realize who he is - a man with unheard of capacities to bring joy, laugther and creativeness, he will fail. He needs to sell those big ugly Hollywood house-ranches, move home to Philly and show his kids what a playground looks like; then we can relate to him and he can relate to us.

Aaaand that was all for this year. Will Smith will return in 2017 at venues "Random Beach House" and "One of those clubs with millionaires".

Okay I thought maybe I should post this with the version of He's the DJ, I'm the Rapper I posted yesterday... but its not like we're drowning in posts so might as well give this one its own. I think the only different from the "common" version is FP singing between the verses... it sounds terrible but cute.

So I've heard the album version of this song like at least 1000 times and kind of out of nowhere I find this with a longer and completely different ending. Im sure must have missed out on this.

The song was bad in every possible aspect and lacked all commercial/clubbing potential except for Will being a name in it. However I refuse to believe that he really thought it was gonna be a big hit... seems like something he did more for the fun of it.

Really sad. I mean okey we lost a lot of great rappers of the years but none that really shaped my taste in music.. Phife Dawg though, true legend. Sad.

I think he might still do three or four concerts but World tour etc - forget it. Gotta make another ten bad movies ensuring you're forgotten before the career is even over.

Its something I love to see: its REAL!

That Chris Rock and a couple of other comedians and what not makes fun of Will, "destroys him" and believes that he make the wrong decision and that some kind of "reputation" will suffer - all of this might be true. But if you are going to adapt your beliefs and decisions based on what others think you'll find yourself in a hole far worse than a suffered reputation and the cost of being laughed at. If he believes in what he says then he wont be affected by some well-paid comedian making well-paid jokes about it. It sure is pure bandwagonism to feel that Will should have attended the Oscar's because other prominent people thinks he should have. Yeah I know the world works like this: if a celebrity says something, then everyone wants to do or buy what the celeb says, and to not follow this pattern might seem unreasonable to a lot of people. But you know that's what creative and independent people do: they're basically saying "Im not taking decisions based on what jokes comedians might tell".

They have all been on Youtube but at least the JJFP-non-singles are unavailable due to copyright-bull**** so I imagine most things gets taken down.

Except they look like they're on crack I agree

"kids, you wanna see star wars or this headache movie with Will Smith?"

Yeah its been posted before, it's great stuff though. Jeff sure knows his Rock the Bells :) fan 4ever: On the version posted five years ago on Youtube it says "Capital Radio" so I guess thats the source.

There was a time when I only listened to JJFP and I'm still into old school hip hop but something people likely have missed out on BUT REALLY SHOULDNT is Parliament - Funkadelic in general and more specifically their live stuff. Its been eating my brainz out for the last couple of years in the best kind of way so I feel I need to share it with people who can dig a nice vibe. Let me give you three excellent examples of what I'm talking about. First of something straight forward- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d-dRRbIWRQc The more chillaxing kind: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QZtgdoZD2t4 My personal favorite: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vVqutFDcs8A Edit: Dont know how to insert the links as video's, which would have been so smooth and nice..

I dont know what criterias they use for their list but it's usually something in between "famousity" (thats a word right?) and cultural influence. Based on those criterias I think few hip hop acts deserve a spot in the top 100. Maybe Public Enemy because they brought the radicalism into hip hop, which has been kind of a cultural changer for good and bad... Tupac and maybe Outkast should have made the list (maybe they did, didnt see it through), Nelly and Chris Brown (I dont even know who this is) shouldnt. As for JJFP of course they would be in my top 10 but generally speaking I think its okey to leave them outside a list like this.

Yeah actually we put the volume up quite high and I dont want my mother to hear those cheesy lyrics, actually I dont want her to hear me at all, but anyway, I decided I had to close it.

Am I the only around who likes Mongolian music? Until a month ago I thought Lost & Found was the best CD of 2005 but I have changed my mind. The CD by Hosoo & Ensamble Transmongolia is better, its one of the best tracks all time. Heres two samples: http://www.hosoo.de/media/gesang_Track02.mp3 http://www.hosoo.de/media/gesang_Track13.mp3

Forces? You like Star Wars, dont ya? I dont agree. There arent positive and negative "forces". I think its kind of obvious that you are one of those religious people who consider the not religious peoples evil. Nothing is about all about bad vs. good. Its so ****ing ignorant to even think in that way. It might be the truth in bad Hollywood movies, "There are basically negative and positive forces in this universe. You must relinquish AUTHORITY over your life to one or the other, but can not supress your inner power to a neutral state, or you wont grow." Grow in what way? "By relinquishing Authority over your life to God, you literally yeild positive results and abundance in prosperity thats real, and as Will says, yields happy endings that are lasting. " Yes. All people who believe in good gets happy endings. Here are some examples: The jews in the 40's, the millions of people in Christian countries in Africa that has been killed by pope John Paul II. I think I keep the authority over myself to myself, or perhaps to Fidel Castro, a man who truley has helped his people grow. Interesting that he is one of few dictators who is not religious... "likewise, if you choose to relinquish authority/ or your 'power' to evil, you may also gain abundance in material things, but happiness or fruitfulness won't yield longevity, because it didnt come from God. Its all about Bad Vs Good. " What is evil? Satan? If I dont become a satanist I'm not evil? Personally I'm sure there are nothing as simple as bad or good, except maybe for that sandwich I made yesterday, that was really bad. I think the bread was a bit old. Not even Hitler was all bad. Not even Nelson Mandela is all good. Pfft. Leave your house. See the world. How old are you? 40? Time to see the world and learn how it works. Time to quit all this redundance and to see beyond good and bad. Its the thinking of a five year old, "its all about good and bad". And that good would come from God and bad from "evil"... thats a bit dittleidoo. But hey, maybe I should feel bad for you as I do with Ned Flanders, Rod and Todd.

I have yet to see it, but it sounds like something I would like. I like slow movies.

I love their two firsts CDs. All of the tracks on those are my favorites, kinda. Passing Me By is really good though, kinda in its own class.

Normally, I post things in the Lerkot music-topic. But since this is our first music video, I just need to post it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cpcDpUnXeLc

Ive been listening to Pharcyde a lot recently. Thats a really good hiphop group, their first CD is very jazzy. This is definitely one of my favorite hiphop groups, but what do you guys think? You like em?
