Members smootb Posted October 5, 2005 Members Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 It's totally absurd all the garbage in the radio waves that make it.It's like no one likes real music anymore.the third verse I think scares people they don't want to hear Will Smith rap about the state of Hip-Hop.No one wants to hear the truth anymore.It's a sad day when Will Smith has to step up to the plate and call out the watered down rap game :shakehead: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fan 4ever Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 All I can say is R.I.P Party Starter! :thumbdown: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigted Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 Hip-hop is dead if Will can't make impact with this album, RIP hip-hop, f*** MTV and BET! :paperbag: "Tell Me Why" is too serious to get airplay, "Party Starter" was his only hope for a huge hit. :shakehead: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JumpinJack AJ Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 Yeah, i noticed that it looks like a set up where fans can't even get the song out there. I still think it's important 2 spread the word...but once September came, i knew "Party Starter" waz a bad idea. It's tyme 2 drop "Tell Me Why." There's no other way.

Jonny 5 Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 Tell Me Why is the way forward, this whole album has been fcuked up - Will should join ATOJ, invest some real money and make an impact Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TooFresh Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 I can't believe it...the video is great and the song is perfect...I'll never understand why labels don't support what Will does!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaxFly Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 :therain: You guys sure we don't want to try milking Switch again.... Lol, look, all we can do is joke about it. Things are the way they are, and the video doesn't really help. We can hope for Tell Me Why, but I'm not getting my hopes up. The singles and this album have been mismanaged since the beginning of June... Unfortunately, I don't think anyone is surprised. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cristigolo Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 it is sad how interscope didn't help his career at all. if it fails then maybe it will discourage him to release albums and make him dedicate himself to movies which would suck in about 90%. i sure hope this worst-case-scenario won't happen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angel Amor Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 Hip-hop is dead if Will can't make impact with this album, RIP hip-hop, f*** MTV and BET! :paperbag: "Tell Me Why" is too serious to get airplay, "Party Starter" was his only hope for a huge hit. :shakehead: :word: I agree if Tell Me Why 2 get release it wouldn't get any airplay on tv or radio. Hell it probably would only get play once on the radio and then u be hearing the Dj's complaining that the song sounds like Jadakiss's song. Tell Me etc is like what BigTed said a serious song. Hell BET wouldn't play Little Brother's video cus it was 2 serious. Sad that Party Starter isn't getting a chance :shakehead: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazzy Julie Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 ok for starters, you've all given up way too early, it has only been on uk tv for a week and a half. Releasing tell me why will do nothing, exactly the same will happen. Party starter has shown us no matter how good the song is, if radio and tv dont play it, it wont get anywhere. What we need to do is knock those f****** radio DJs heads together. look now u made Julie swear. I cant tell how well ps is gonna do over here, its too early to tell, switch didnt get good radio play but in my eyes was a big hit (uk). Im just gonna keep on street teaming, "nothings worth having if its not worth the fight", its annoying that we have to do interscopes job for them when i should be revising instead! :jada: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DefCEM Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 Its all Wills fault, he was the one who told that he will focus more on music the next 8 month. and what happened? NOTHIN! he had to shoot his movies again... JJFP Rock The House Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turntable Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 I said this in the "what If" Thread and I`m gonna say here the exact same thing: You guys..Don`t Complain so much! You think Lost And Found flopped?You`r crazy! Switch was a big hit!It was a real big hit!Bigger than all the 50 Cent Singles from his new Album together!At lesat over here in Europe..It was soo long in the Top 10 or 20! Lost And Found..It sold more than LL`s oder de De La`s latest Album.(I mentioning those `caus they from paralel artists).That is impresive together with a big world hit! It also sold more than Albums from hype Artits like Fat Joe or Cassidy.Which is impresive to! Shure..50 and Mike Jones and them sell much more..But for how long?You can`t reay belivee that they have a future.. I heard people talk about that Will may stop `Caus of that. Bull****! Why should he?He allways can find a Record Deal if he wants..It`s Will Smith! Don`t be so negative..Lost And Found seld good!That`s it! Ofcourse it could be better..But this is still realy great..Especaly when you look at those other Albums! Amen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
