i dont understand how someone can 'hate' pretty toney and like everything after it. these albums since have basically been rehashes of pretty toney + a pete rock or dilla beat
I don't understand how someone can 'hate' pretty toney at all. that album is fresh.
"Run" is a modern classic - but I dont return to that record much.
honestly I celebrate the entire tracklist with the exception of the Missy joint. even "Tooken Back" has its moments. Love, Ghostface, Save me Dear, Hollah and Biscuits are all dope.

missy has very little to do w/ why that song is awesome

perhaps. but you'd have to be able to stand Missy in order to even begin to enjoy that song. I cannot stand Missy. as a result it is the one song on Pretty Toney that I skip, disco or not. I even like the intro skit on that album. shit cracks me up.
haha... why am I not surprised that deej is the first person I've ever heard claim that 'tush' is great?? that was the only one I skipped when I used to listen to this CD a lot too...
I was really dissappointed by Fishscale and never gave it a proper chance, will be interested to hear this one though...

Hey,
I'm mad how he got me for my "Help Me" sample (but NO ONE will ever figure out the OST bassline I chopped for that joint or how I freaked it) . Besides that, this shit is fonky! Don't hate, congratulate!!! If you can't feel that shit, proceed on to the Gwen Stefani divider in the CD store.

I said banana nutriment!
Good to hear I am not the only one who thought the Pretty Tony album was the shit. I listened to every song on that for months until finally I couldn't listen any more. That's rare.
The only thing I would skip was that hot tub skit.
Can't wait to check the new one, thx for the heads up
I heard Ghost hooked up a cameo in the Iron Man movie.

i'm surprised you are. it was a single that got air/video play
i also don't see whats so objectionable about it ... do u hate musique???
Or u object that strongly to missy??? it fits in perfectl w/ the sound of the album and ghost's verses are on point. i would believe there are a few folks not feeling it as much as other tracks but i don't see how this is out of character for the album or whats so objectionable about the content
was certainly better than some garbage generic shit like "be easy"
its even got a 'raer' sample, wtf more do u people want
This kind of contradicts your populist, club-compliant world view though, no?
At least around here, Tush got no burn and "Be Easy" got a lot.
there are good popular, club-friendly songs and bad popular, club-friendly songs. i have never claimed a 'populist worldview' that = popular is always good
tho i shudder to imagine the club world in which "be easy" was considered a smash
I wouldn't say it was a smash, but it got a lot more play than "Tush"
Some of the "crap DJs" I've heard play it

I truly don't know if the club world will ever reach your high standards!
hah i edited out crap djs cuz i felt it was too dick-ish. I gave a to denote i was clowning tho great, amazing DJs play songs i am not feeling all the time. sometimes they even make me think those songs work in new contexts. Doesn't mean I don't think Be Easy is a pretty boring single
"Tush" fits in w/ "Cherchez La Ghost" and "Sunshowers" and other disco-club joints that Ghost has released and I think that sound works a lot better for him than straightforward pete rock boom bap, at least (especially) for a lead single.
i don't even have anything against the idea of pete rock in a club setting (thinking contemporary club setting here, obv if we're talking throwback early-mid 90s rap mix its a different deal) - i think 'holdin it down' sounds amazing in the club. But yeah, "Be Easy" is about as rote and generic a single as ghost has ever released to my ears.
am i supposed to be embarrassed by this or something? I stand by everything I said in that thread. No question Missy is overrated by folks who don't listen to hip-hop and wear tightpants, but she's still a great party rapper period.
