  1. Is it too late to milk "Code Red" and "Willenium"? :lolsign: Seriously the album's a year old now, people wanna hear new stuff now, let's hope Will releases a new album...
  2. Did he really have any credability to begin with? Most of his fans are lil' girls drooling over him just like 50 Cent fans... btw, check the review I wrote a couple weeks ago for Bow Wow's album, all the reviews for it this month are one star, it seems like the only people who give him high reviews are girls, they say something corny like: "Leave my Bow Wow alone, he's so sexy", anyway here's what I wrote: "It's funny how Bow Wow could call Will Smith a bubblegum rapper when he never has had a Grammy or an Oscar nomination in his career and he never will if he keeps on putting out garbage albums like this along with his cheesy movies!!! Please Bow Wow quit entertaining, you're an embarassment to the industry, just go to school and be somethin' else, from the famous words of Will Smith: "Pump Ya Brakes"!!!"
  3. It's funny though people like 50 Cent and Kanye usually make a stupid comment on everything going on, they're actually using their senses not to diss Will, they probably figure that this is one controversey that'd really hurt them, lol... Bow Wow was probably hoping that they'd stick up for him...
  4. Well Bow Wow says he looks up to fools like 50 as real rappers so I think that's why he's getting so much flack too, believe or not, a lot of people don't like 50 Cent either, I wish all these wack rappers should just come out and co-sign with the lil' pup and diss Will so that way Will could line up and destroy all of them, that'd be dope as hell if they all were at 106 & Park and then Will jumps on stage with Jeff and knocking them all out when he does "Lost and Found", then all the teenagers watching'll throw their Bow Wow/50/etc. cds in the trash after that: "I take 12 rappers and put 'em in line, then 12 mcs who think they could rhyme, then 12 more brothers who still ain't signed, then don't do nothin' just watch 'em decline" :pony:
  5. "People dissin' Will sat on a wall People dissin' Will had a great fall All the kings horses and all the kings men Could never put their careers together again, you get it?" :bowdown:
  6. If we're able to get "Lost and Found" to go double platinum through the internet, I'll be taking notes so I could do the same thing when I drop a mixtape! :kekeke:
  7. :bowdown: People are coming to their senses!! This gives us an opportunity to give the word 'bout "Lost and Found", thank you lil' pup!!
  8. Well didn't we go on many sites over the last year talking about this album? I bet everyone you're trying to reach already heard the song, but if we could introduce a few people to good music it's all good though, leak the whole album if you want to, people need to hear it, bottomline...
  9. Realistically how big could it be if it don't get on any white/black radio station?
  10. I dunno, I thought it was posted on Will's site, but they just have the webmaster's email, any ideas Tim and AJ??!! :wiggle:
  11. http://nastack.com/ LIL BOW WOW IS FULL OF SH*T Check out some quotes from his feature over at AllHipHop.com: Yeah, lyrically I’ve definitely been growin’ man, I feel like it’s only right that I do so. And the reason being is because people want to hear the more mature me. I think that’s the only way that I will gain respect as a maturing MC that way, you know what I’m saying? (note: T.I. writes 70% of Lil Bow Wow's rhymes) *** I was brought in to Hip-Hop at a young age so MC'ing is just more than just the look, the swagger, how you talk, it is an art form. And it’s also how you carry yourself. And it’s also a talent. Like Hip-Hop is like it’s like our church - for us. This represents us and I think that you know a lot of people really don’t understand that. Lot of people just look at it like, you know tattoos, jewelry and those are just fads. It’s much deeper than that and, with me, like I watch a lot of Hip-Hop like Krush Groove movies, like Breakin’ movies, like I watch that and I study that from Rhyme and Reason to all kind of Hip-Hop movies because I’m a Hip-Hop guru. *** You know Will Smith would not even talk about things that I would talk about you know what I’m saying and I’ve got nothing against Will. *** I can see somebody comparing Nick Cannon with Will Smith on the music side, but not me. -Will Smith, has something you'll never have...a Grammy. A place in history as an actual musician. Came up with one of the best DJ's of all time. Check out Will's early s*** (i.e. You Saw My Blinker Bitch). That title alone is more gully than anything you've ever put out. January 23, 2006 | Permalink | Comments (13) | TrackBack (1)
  12. :word: That's I'm saying, the best thing we could do for Will is email the radio stations for them to play "Tell Me Why", email Overbrook as well and tell them that we're still interested in having "Tell Me Why" coming out, we gotta let them know we're still interested in this as fans, Will might think we gave up on it but if he sees thousands of people email Overbrook he'll get hungry to do it, get as many people to do it as possible, all the real hip-hop fans could start this movement...
  13. We've been putting our energy in helping out Will for the last year, I think we've done more than Interscope in promoting "Lost and Found", let's be real "Tell Me Why" ain't gonna blow up unless Will performs it at a show on MTV or it gets spins on the radio!!!
  14. 7K in sales is pretty good for indendent, $70,000 is a respectable profit, that'd be nice for me, lol... but I'm talking about those who're selling 700 copies, they must be having it rough like they would if they didn't have a deal, I could make more than $7,000 if I was working at Walmart, that's minimum wage money, maybe they do a lot of ghostwriting for the rich artists, lol, that must be how Skillz makes a living...
  15. yeah but how much copies is brakes selling? of course he'll have to get another job doing it that way 'cause i don't think he could make that much of a profit that way, he's just trying to get his name out there... now in talking about these artists listed, these are professional recording artists with contracts, they're signed to record labels, so the record label has to get some profit too, I think the independent label only gets about $5-7 and the artist gets about $8-10 independently, but if it's a major label like Interscope or Def Jam, the label gets about $14-$14.50 an album and the artist gets about like $0.50-$1 an album sold, there is a signing bonus when you get a deal but most of that goes into recording the album so you don't get much profit from that, Little Brother got screwed just as they'd if not worse than they'd selling 1000 copies independently, $50,000 that gets divided between each member in the group is not that much money, damn some of these artists are broke... :hmm:
  16. What's the email Julie? We could all email them, we should make a list of all the radio stations that we wanna email...
  17. How much money could an independent artist make selling 700 copies of an album? Even if they make $10 for each album they sell, it's only like $7,000, that's like working at Walmart, they might have to get a job on the side!! :paperbag:
  18. 'cause the lyrics were too intelligent for the teenage audience they're going after!!! that's why they didn't play "party starter" either, the industry only pushes rappers like 50 Cent and Kanye West while lyricists who put more substance in their lyrics can't get airplay, not blaming 50 Cent and Kanye West but I'm blaming the industry, their should be a market for everybody...
  19. Little Brother ain't underground though, they released their album through Atlantic Records, BET refused to play their video that's why they didn't do better but hey that's how bad Will could've been since the media resisted him a lot too, so before the next time you complain about Will being blackballed, think about how more artists are treated even worse...
  20. Wow those numbers are pitiful, some good albums on that list too, Supastition's one of the illest mcs in hip-hop and he sold 730 copies?... btw, you got any idea how much Jazzy's "The Soul Mixtape" sold? How's Kel Spencer doing? MOP flopped, I thought they were on G Unit, wtf?! :mygod:
  21. :word: To DefCem, I think Kel Spencer needs more help than Will does, Will shipped platinum but how much has Kel sold? He needs our help selling his mixtape more than anything, how much did Jazzy's "The Soul Mixtape" sell? Shouldn't we try to help them too? This is a JJFP site, not just a Will Smith site, we should put energy into helping them too as much as we do for Will!! Will's platinum already, he did quite well, he don't need that much help from us here now, we've done enough promotion over the last year already...
  22. Having thosands email Overbrook and radio stations should make some noise!! :yeah:
  23. It wouldn't hurt to try, it's our only hope, it needs to get on the airwaves to make an impact, maybe we should have thousands email Overbrook and tell them to release it to radio...
