sonic1988 Posted January 3, 2008 Report Share Posted January 3, 2008 what concept or storyline would you want the album to have? I can only really think of him kind of traveling in time and doing songs from various periods in rap. Like doing one in the style of Rock the house, another in the style of Homebase, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schnazz Posted January 4, 2008 Report Share Posted January 4, 2008 A serious album, something that Tell Me Why fits into. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Posted January 4, 2008 Report Share Posted January 4, 2008 The time travel idea is close to what I would see....a "kid" maturing to a man...not neccessarily to a superstar movie actor...but like a kid from west philly mad at his parents when they take him to the gallery and buy him wack stuff to the father who makes his kids have a curfew. i think it would be his style to do it, and within in it, different interludes...first with trey and his dad backtalking each other, then jaden making fun of his dad, and then willow singing a final song on the outro.

KevTastic Posted January 4, 2008 Report Share Posted January 4, 2008 Not sure it would work in this day and age. Rap concept albums don't grab me. But anything by Will would obviously be given more than my average attention Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevilsJim89 Posted January 4, 2008 Report Share Posted January 4, 2008 Wasn't Born to Reign a concept album? I think the term "Concept album" is getting popular now because Jay-Z used to describe his new "American Gangster" album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the term "Concept album" is getting popular now because Jay-Z used to describe his new "American Gangster" album. I had never heard that B2R was that. And it didn't really follow a line of thought, it went everywhere. Concept albums are huge with indy/punk/rock bands and have been for some time. Coheed and Cambria are a favorite of my friends, and they have made 4 studio albums with a storyline of a civil war in space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigted Posted January 5, 2008 Report Share Posted January 5, 2008 It'd been perfect if Will did a concept album for "I Am Legend" talkin' about survivin' as the last man in the world Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
