KevTastic Posted May 8, 2008 Report Share Posted May 8, 2008 generally people have the same opinion. Im lways gonna love the original more, but Jeff did a great revamp job on the new version and i thought Peedi brought his own style into it. I liked it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turntable Posted May 8, 2008 Report Share Posted May 8, 2008 I thought it was wack. Peedie's voice is just wack,lol. And the original version of the beat is much better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jazzy Julie Posted May 8, 2008 Report Share Posted May 8, 2008 i rarely skip songs on a CD, and i never skip songs on a jjfp record, in this case i skip the song everytime lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JumpinJack AJ Posted May 8, 2008 Report Share Posted May 8, 2008 It sucks. Peedi just isn't good. His voice is annoying. I've never heard any lyrics from him that impressed me. This is the weakest track Jeff has ever done. I don't know why he'd want 2 bastardize his own classic. The song should have never been done unless FP waz on it...probably the only one on it.

KevTastic Posted May 9, 2008 Report Share Posted May 9, 2008 Its not nearly as bad as everyone is making out. They are just blinded by the brilliance of the original. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Hero1 Posted May 9, 2008 Admin Report Share Posted May 9, 2008 I like it..something different Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Posted May 9, 2008 Report Share Posted May 9, 2008 I agree with KevTastic and Hero 1 on this one, however it clearly is no where near as good as the original. Brand New Funk is one of my favourite FP JJ songs, top 5 id say but while Peedi isnt as good, he does bring something fresh and different to the track. It sounds completely different from when it was with Prince but I dont mind it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JumpinJack AJ Posted May 9, 2008 Report Share Posted May 9, 2008 Why downgrade it tho'? Like Brakes said... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevTastic Posted May 9, 2008 Report Share Posted May 9, 2008 Jeff loved the track enough to make a remake of it. He was very proud of it so doesn't think of it as downgraded, just a new version. So there is no need for the question "Why Downgrade it" when the person who made it doesn't believe its that way in the first place. Its not downgrading the original. Its a different song.

bigted Posted May 9, 2008 Report Share Posted May 9, 2008 I think the songs good, nowhere near the classic but it's not wack either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ant1 Posted May 9, 2008 Report Share Posted May 9, 2008 Peedie's voice is just annoying.. the track had to grow on me alot, it's defefinatly the weakest track on the album. just wish FP could have got on a remix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JRoll Posted May 10, 2008 Author Members Report Share Posted May 10, 2008 Is it just me, or does anyone one else like the live version of the original better than the album version? I just love how he freestyles in the beginning "Yo let me talk to you, let me have a word with you!" And he goes on right into the first verse. I also like when they break it down. I mean to me that version of the song will always be the best. Anyone agree? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Hero1 Posted May 10, 2008 Admin Report Share Posted May 10, 2008 I think brand new funk sounds awesome live..even better than summertime.. for example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cNYAjpHhfk0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
