I'm watching the Pistons/Kings game right now. The Kings are winning 74-59 in the 3rd quarter.

I'd say it's about as dope as the original, Elephant Man did a nice job on it! :wiggle:

Nas "One Love"

Jadkiss' "Why" was just a gimmick song just like Eminem's "Mosh" was 'cause of the election comin' up last fall, they did it to boost their sales. When it comes to political commentary nobody could be as authentic as Public Enemy, speakin' about the political life better than any hip-hop mcs can, speaking of Public Enemy check out the "16 Years After Nation" post in Caught In The Middle.

Az and RZA "Whatever Happened" (The Birth)

That's a great article there, thanks Tim! :bowdown:

Damn that makes my eyes hurt! :lolsign: Great news though! :thumb:

I can't hear it man, I tried putting it on my Windows media player, but I still can't hear it. :bang:

:lolsign: Why you gotta bite for, you sound like a 2Pac wannabe! :ditto: This Numero Uno forum is for posting original lyrics, don't bring that bull**** here. :ali:

I was bumpin' that song quite a few times yesterday on my birthday, that made me feel pretty good and excited 'cause I know that time of year is comin' soon, I'm optimistic that this summer is gonna be better than the past couple summers considerin' that "Lost and Found" will be comin' out soon, I'll be having some more fun music to bump and meetin' some peeps.

Those peeps over that forum are right, you can't be mad at the playa. :lolsign: I don't think it's anything serious, u know how the media is, FP would be stupid to mess up his relationship with Jada.

A lot of those mcs in the early days of popularity really help take hip-hop to the next level in becoming a billion dollar buisiness, everyone should know who they are and they deserve some more credit and shouldn't be forgotten even if they never sell as much as they used to. I know Nelly has sold a lot but he didn't really impact hip-hop in a major way, but even though Will and LL have sold a lot, their influence on hip-hop is obvious. They should do a special on James Brown too 'cause even though he didn't have major sales, his impact really has influenced every mc in hip-hop that has picked up the mic, he was hip-hop before it was called hip-hop.

I'm really surprised that 50 would act this immature considering that that Jam Master Jay helped him make some of his mixtapes back in the late '90s, you figure that he'd learned something from one of the most positive cats in hip-hop history, I know that Jam Master Jay would be upset if he was alive right now to see 50 actin' so childish.

It's funny how some of us talk about Will likes he's some sort of God that says and does everything perfect, he's a good role model for the 'hood and Hollywood, but he's still a regular person, remember he said "Twinkle, Twinkle, I'm Not A Star". People start flippin' out when they hear that he curses and carries a gun in real life, what's the big deal, are the millions to do that really all criminals and evil people? :nhawong:

I think it'd be great if Public Enemy toured with JJFP 'cause all the younger fans that just started listening to JJFP can be introduced to another legendary hip-hop group, but all the ol' school heads still supporting would know them already of course, Chuck D can outperform these younger mcs like Jay-Z easily and Chuck D said in one of his terrordome postings that touring with JJFP was one of the greatest moments in his life.

Hey I just turned on VH1 while reading this post and they're showing "Switch" in the top 20! :thumb:

Well they did do a show on Will when "Men In Black 2" came out but it seemed they talked a lot more about his acting career than his rapping career, basically it left us with the same impression that Columbia left us of Will, there needs to be a better one on him than that. :ditto: VH1 is a mainstream channel so they won't really do one on those mcs I mentioned 'cause they ain't on the charts anymore, they did do one on Public Enemy and Run-Dmc before so it's a slim possibility, but hopefully they are on the charts again after "Lost and Found" sells 5 million and opens the doors for the ol' school and true mcs to shine again, but that happening might also be just a dream, hopefully JJFP could do another world tour with Public Enemy again 'cause they're touring again this year too, that'd be nice.

It ain't on the album is it? :dunno: What happened I thought Robin Thicke and Redman was doing the remix? This is wack! :ditto:

:werd: That looks like one of the early rhymes I did when I started, keep on working at it if u like writing and you'll improve.

U biting 2Pac's "Rebel From The Underground" there, I picked that up right away dawg, take FP's advice: "Please stop biting, please don't immitate" :lolsign:

Well PE's work is not done yet, it'd be nice to see them get some recognition again, hip-hop needs a group to bring that consciousness back, especially with all these groups out now rhyming about meaningless things and beefin'. The one thing I respect about Public Enemy the most is that they don't start beef with other rappers, they have a beef with the government that doesn't do anything for the 'hoods, rappers fightin' with each other like this will not have government peeps take the hip-hop nation serious and if another rapper gets murdered, we won't ever have a hip-hop president. btw, if anyone heard the album "It Takes A Nations To Hold Us Back" before, doesn't that guy sound like Tim Westwood who introduced the London crowd to Public Enemy in the album intro? :dunno:

Bernie Mac Show

I think it'd have to be a multiple part "Driven" to cover JJFP's career, they should do one on Rakim, Big Daddy Kane, KRS-ONE, and a few others too that came out around that time too, they did "Driven"/"Behind The Music" on some many different mcs already, I don't understand why it'd take so long for them to do one on them. :dunno: How could they do one on Nelly's career he just came out a few years ago? :bang:

So what's wrong with that? He's human, it's legal to have a gun in America. :ditto:

I can't believe it was about a year ago, I remember comin' here 2 this forum a couple weeks after my b-day last year, I've been addicted to it ever since, it's nice to see that there's peeps out there in this world that share the same love for JJFP and hip-hop as much as I do. :thumb:
