  • He'll be lucky if he sells (cough) Nas numbers, but I still think he's a pretty good rapper and i like the one mixtape i have.
  • my venerial infection. Batmon has down below?
  • Nah I agree, I liked his song on mary j's album and on that charlie wilson album. I'm just wondering how he fares here. His song for the pussycat dolls was garbage though.
  • I haven't heard it yet, so no.
  • 1. what do you think of 'bossy' 2. what do you think of shondrae 3. does he produce other tracks 4. will.i.am: worst part of the album, best part, or neither.
  • As for being 'scared' of wutang, please to recognize that this wasnt some hide under the covers shit, it was more some "this is SERIOUS SHIT REAL TALK" and that part of that was the creepy music video which I saw on the BOX. I never had cable, so wh…
  • I was ten so I was mostly listening to the radio. I have a tape i recorded off the radio from around this time that included Da brat's "Funkdafied," Domino's "Sweet Potatoe Pie," Scarface's "Never Seen a Man Cry," Ahmad's "Back in the Day," Pharcyde…
  • Another quick google search suggests that 'key beats' was Aaliyah, Tank and Playa. I'm not sure how accurate that is.

  • oh. oops. I'm pretty sure, Wikipedia gives him a writing credit for it though? So we might both be right. I could be wrong but I was pretty sure Key Beats were involved. I'll have to double-check when i get home, i'll take a look at the liners.

  • That was done by Key Beats, who also did "Never No More" and "Its Whatever" as well as "independent women pt. 2" and "perfect man" by Destiny's Child. I believe the sample for "Rock the Boat" is taken from some 80s R&B song? I remember hearing a…

  • Which ones werent you feeling? Some of her non-timbo tracks are my favorites ("Rock the boat" obviously, but also "Loose Rap"...Was "Between the Lines" timbo? I don't think so, that too.)

  • Maybe it was out of the music business, but a lot of female singers in R&B today are all ass and no voice.[/b] Exhibit A... http://www.soulstrut.com/ubbthreads/show...ge=0#Post708619 Without question Aaliyah > Cassie obv, but this whole…

  • I played trumpet in band back in h.s. and we used to play the melody to 'are you that somebody' at basketball games, everyone in the crowd loved that shit.

  • came out last year for those who don't want to track down her whole (regrettably small) discography.
    in Aaliyah Comment by deej August 2006
  • Aaliyah was amazing. Her s/t is one of the best R&B albums of the last ten years, practically perfect song for song - the album tracks are so unbelievably solid (sosickandtired of the LOOSE RAP) her shit with R Kelly was pretty great BACK BACK …

  • Can't recommend these two enough: 2. Young Gifted and Black-The Story of Trojan Records by Michael de Konigh & Lawrence Cane-Honeysett Runs down the story of Trojan and all the sublabels, which is interesting in and of itself, but the best thin…
  • This guy makes Colin Quinn funny.
  • NO ONE EXPECTED THE UNEXPECTED
  • But hey how am I to argue with "correct" opinions (secret underrated 8ball and mjg song ever is on harlem world, shhhhh. 9.5)
  • "rethinking the canon" vs. "thinking for yourself" Buck Bounce is great obv You don't like the Swizz tracks on that shit? I like how modern it sounds. My 'least listened to' album would be "on the outside looking in." But seriously underrated = M…
  • well in our lifetime is pretty clearly their best album. I dont like that one as much as "On top of the World" really. I might prefer Space Age 4 Eva, too.
  • 10 bucks that the blogosphere is going to be all over this sub-genre in a few ...... We (the blogosphere) just had our quarterly meeting and we decided to give it a few more years to age before we fawn over it. First we have to go through our quie…
  • I would love to see someone release a CD of this stuff.
  • Great thread
  • I know deej is about to get at me for my "tyrannical conformity" here. Nah, unless you consider Young Buck a 'weed carrier'
  • Sure are a lot of crap threads today. For what ails you http://www.soulstrut.com/ubbthreads/show...ge=0#Post711739
  • When your friend leaves the job she should tell the boss why she is leaving and that his behavior is unacceptable. A lot of time people don't do this, and the guy needs to know that people see through his bullshit. Yeah this sounds like good advice.…
  • Go to HR and report it... I spent all day Tuesday in the California mandated Management Harrassment Prevention Workshop and that was pretty much the answer for any situation. The impression I get is that this guy is the big boss which makes it real…
  • You New Yorkers, always one step ahead I suppose 50 Cent's just out of touch since he moved to CT. THE TERM IS FROM THE MID 80'S DEEJ. I'M SORRY BUT GET FAMILIAR. BY THE TIME U HEARD KRISS KROSS, NOBODY WAS USING IT ANYMORE. U CAN CALL YOURSELF LA…
