Alicia Keys Feat. LL Cool J "Teenage Love Affair" (Remix)
Typhoon20 replied to bigted's topic in Caught in the Middle
Talk about a slick remix.This song was already decent back in the days but they really made it so much better with the killer remix. Also Slick ricks teenage love sample is perfect. A great love song to chill by. -
I really don't get him lately.First he gives positive hints at people, says he wants to do it, next minute he doesn't want to do it. It's not like he does 3-4 movies a year, he just does 2 a year. And lately he's finished Seven Pounds and he's done with Hancock and he doesn't have a project lined up yet, so he has a couple months, even after that if something comes up he'll do it in 3 months, that still leaves him with a lot of time. Will is immensely talented, he's the only one who can do it all if he wants, equally great. I mean music isn't gonna be something he'll be able to perform at 70 ya know, he can still act with the best of them at 50+, actors are like wine, get better with age. But you can't say the same for musicians. Lost&Found was that chance, but they blew a great album with horrible marketing and again picked the wrong songs to release (especially party starter, had they released TMW the album would've skyrocketed). I'd say Will is at his peak, now is the time. He should take a big rest go on a long vacation chill max relax and write some stuff while he's on vacation. Then get back do your movie if there is one and then take some time off to focus on your music without interfering with the movies (that's very possible). When you look at Wills' past albums, they were pretty good (especially Willenium and L&F) but he was never able to present the best of them mainly because of the producers wanting to release more commercial stuff. So in a sense he didn't have total control over his music, which is really horrible because music is personal. If Will is going to do another album and release it under a music company that doesn't favor real music, that just wants to release a couple commercial stuff to make some money, I would prefer if he didn't make one. Cause not only would it tarnish Wills musical talent it would also force people to view him as a commercial rapper. When Will put up Willenium they released Will2k, after that it was Freakin it which where both great great tracks. But people assumed it was a commercial album. They had no idea about Potnas, Rain or Afro Angel....now those were some amazing tracks, but unfortunately the majority doesn't know about. Same with L&F, Switch and Partystarter, but that wasn't the albums strongest songs, most of them didn't know about the real heavyweight tracks of that album, TMW, L&F...real hiphop...but unfortunately it never got the chance to be released. That's the one thing I regret, he never got the chance to release the songs he liked the most, songs that represent real hip hop. Will is doing 2 movies a year, that's what, almost 40 million a movie ? I don't believe it's 20, he's probably getting a lot of %'s of the movie. IMO he should be getting 100 a movie :) Cause no matter how bad his movies, people watch it because of him. To the point, Will makes almost 100 million a year from movies alone....how much would it cost to make an album, be your own producer, pick a distribution company that makes and ships your albums to the stores, and just release your own songs, make your own music videos...how much would that cost ? I really wouldn't know. Though I doubt it would cost more than 20 Million. He could assemble his own dream team, he has the money and power to do so. He could team up with Jazzy, he could also add a couple of other great artists for collabs and make an album where he has 100% total control over. That would be a victory for hip hop, that could even turn the music industry around for the good. Sure it'll cost a lot, but it's not like it's going to sell 100 albums, it'll sell at least 1 million. And that's what....10 million dollars at least ? Not to mention about all the other stuff like sponsorships etc. He probably won't make a profit (unless he sells 2 million and that's possible) but he also won't lose that much money. Imagine the quality we'd be getting, hip hop at its finest. That would really be a huge kick to the music industry and all the things that's wrong with hip hop right now. Wouldn't that be amazing ? I can dream on about that one I suppose. Next time I see Will this will be my only question, I could care less about a picture, autograph or whatever, I just want to make that request :)

Age ain't nuthin' but a number, remember ?

Now that's pretty amazing. I tried that. A couple years back I had my headphones on as always listening to Just the two of us and I got really into it lyrically so I started singing along, I felt like I had a great voice so I was curious how it would sound without Wills sexy voice backing me up...let me just put it this way, a visit at midnight from Freddy Kruger would scare you less then it would listening to me sing a song. It was that bad. Though props to you guys for being able to remember most of his songs by heart. That's a great accomplishment. The only song I know by heart is Just the two of us, that's such a powerful and emotional song to me so it's easier to memorize 100%. I used to memorize a lot of his older songs but as time goes on you start to forget. Look at Will, even he can't remember them by heart and he wrote them :lolsign:

Or maybe they were overrated. -
Maybe people are just used to ignoring everything you post... If I'd post a Thread about 50 doing a album with KRS-One ya'll would post. If somebody post something about KRS-One making a album himselfl, nobody posts. Because ya'll cant prove it. Reasnouble doubt. PS: see what I did there ?

Turntable, what happened to Holland ? :4-only1ha: -
Will on Jonathan Ross...again!

10 bucks says Ross'll make fun of the movie's title. -
Mason is often wrong when it comes to estimates , I think the other one has a better prediction rate, they predict around 100-125 for Hancock. 150 seems a bit impossible, it would have to do 30M a day and weekdays that's hardly possible. I'm personally estimating around 110, even that is pretty amazing IMO.

TD, you should back me up against Max, he's one of the biggest Kobe homers I've seen and trust me, I've seen MANY :kekeke: . We've had many Jordan vs Kobe debates, me ,naturally, backing up the GOAT. I'm happy for Boston, I always wanted Pierce and KG to get a ring, it was really emotional seeing KG get all intense, that's what it's all about.

UEFA European (Football) Championship
Typhoon20 replied to Turntable's topic in Caught in the Middle
Which was a complete diffrent team. Complete ? Nah. Slightly ? Yeah. Same goalkeeper, same defensive players, partially same midfield and same striker. The biggest changes were in the midfield, players like Sneijder, Robben, Persie were part of that midfield. The biggest difference in the starting eleven are Engelaar and De Jong as opposed to Van Bommel. So saying that was a COMPLETE different team isn't really true. -

Depends on what you consider a dissapointment. The biggest dissapointment for me has to be Germany & Italy. No they didn't. They did deserve the win against the Czechs because they dominated 90 mins and created tons of chances as opposed to Czechs slim one. But I thought Turkey played better against the Swiss, Swiss was better when it was raining because they don't rely on technique that much, but when the rain stopped Turkey played pretty good and deserved the equalizer. The Swiss did play decent football though, it just wasn't enough. We'll see about that one. Croatia did knock out England and they did beat Germany. I wouldn't be too surprised to see them in the semi finals let alone in the finals. They are a capable team with lots of individual talent. Rightfully so. I don't see the Dutch winning it all, they are good but not good enough IMO. I think they've been very lucky especially against France, I thought France played a MUCH better game and didn't deserve to go down 4-1, they created a lot, Holland came 4 times and scored 4 times, great counters. I think Holland is a great counter team, when they go up 1-0 they become stronger, but if they go down 0-1 during any moment of the game, they won't make it because that's not their strength. That's why they got knocked out 4 years ago. I enjoyed the Turkey-Czech game the most, one of the single greatest epic games I've ever watched. Down 0-2 with 15 mins left....game ends 3-2. UNBELIEVABLE. The best game in the tournament so far, one of the greatest games ever. Probably the greatest comeback game in the history of football. I love to watch soccer, and I thank god that I was able to watch that game, what a game. -

Who else got annoyed when the camera panned to Puffy ? He got that facial expression like he's bitter and jealous. Also, I didn't upload the part where they announced the best female, when ellen page won bateman leaned in to kiss ellen on the mouth and Will got in between yelling at Bateman heh.

I love Ellen and I think what separates her from others is her kindness and sweetness, I think this is a great match. Girls, including me, are going to enjoy this one A LOT. I have to work that day but I'm having a feeling I might be sick that day.

What I don't understand and find a bit silly is that study tech is part of Scientology. It's like you re-invent something that already exists and slap it a new name. That's just called practical study and should've nothing to do with Scientology. And to be honest I really really like that idea and I think that's what's wrong with schools. Kids learn everything from the books but usually that's not really helpful and is a huge waste of time, but learning it from a real environment just makes you understand things so much better.

Iono...Maturity? Will said in an interview a while back that doing movies like that were "safe" choices that he was trying to move away from. He's diversifying, and I commend him fo rit, Oscar nod or not. That doesn't take away from the fact that he's still one of the few great african american actors and the msot successful to crossover from music. Welcome to the boards Koff, quality posts btw. You should login next time, it says guest.

I won't be surprised if this is the biggest dissapointment of the summer.
