I'll be getting it simply cuz it's a JJ+FP product. On top of that, it's officially their 20th anniversary. U better believe i'm gonna get something 2 rempresent that. Just having a new compilation with a new CD cover keeps me interested...not 2 mention the remastered stuff. I think the original Greatest Hits is better...but this one hits every one of their main hits, which the original didn't. Just the hits, even the lesser hits.

That sucks that there ain't no unreleased/remixed tracks on there but I'm probably gonna pick it up when I buy Ice Cube's album the same day, usually you could get 2 albums for $20 on album release week

I'm sure Coconuts by the mall will have it at a great price.

After work i went 2 Wal-Mart and they didn't have it either...which waz kinda okay since i realized that my friend has my credit card as i waz walking in. If anyone has it or has seen it in a record store...let me know so i can go get it.

u can buy it on circuitcity.com and check if you can get in-store pickup on it or u can order it online from them for cheap. tower records has it too if u want to go the online route.

I've checked Circuit City, Wal-Mart, Borders, FYE, Best Buy, and an independent record store. It hasn't been released. With albums like this, it's not common for them 2 actually come out a week or 2 after the actual release date. That's probably the case.

You can also order it off amazon.com too. I haven't ordered it, because I would rather buy it in stores.
