  1. Funny enough I just started listening to the album, and is it just me or does the SONG on the album go a bit slower than it does on the video? On the video they are rapping so damn fast that I can't understand everything, yet the album track seems a bit slower. Weird. EDIT: Now I know I'm going crazy. Just played the video and it sounds the same. #fail
  2. Back when all the mashups of Jay Z's album The Black Album were flooding the internet, it was hard to find a good one. DJ Dangermouse's The Grey Album (using The Beatles White album) is generally looked at as one of, if not the best out there. I'd suggest this could be a close second. DJ Noodles and Nic Balz put out this gem of a mashup, and surprisingly it didn't get much attention. Using Jay's accapellas from The Black Album (and some from Jay's MTV Unplugged show) with the music of Nirvana's MTV Unplugged they created an actual mixtape that bears listening to more than once or twice. All the links online I've found were dead, so I fortunately got my hands on a copy of this, thanks to a friend of mine. Feel free to share this with anyone you think might like this.

  3. Back in 1996 during a visit to the Potomac Mills Mall near DC I bought my first hip hop mixtape, DJ Billy Bill's "Best of the Best Volume 1". Several months later it got stolen from me and for the last 15 years I've been looking for it. Now, thanks to the one and only Tapemasta, I now have it again. He was kind enough to rip it from his original tape and send it to me, and I felt like sharing it today with those of you on this board that loves that classic mid-90's hip hop. To this day it remains my favorite mixtape of all time, and I hope you guys like it as well. DOWNLOAD MIXTAPE HERE (Mediafire) NOTE: This is split tracked and tagged for Itunes.

  4. Okay now that I'm back on the forum, I thought I would post up my blog for those of you who might want to check it out. I post a variety of stuff on there, all my own content. I don't just post a video or something and give a link back to the original, or post a song and a quick description. I basically just write on topics that interest me, whether it's movies, music, politics, religion, sports, hip hop, whatever. Plus there's album reviews I've done and interviews I have been fortunate to have done. The link is in my signature, and I figured I would post up a couple links to items that you may or may not dig. Thank you very much, and I'd love to know what you think of what you see. 1. Interview with actor Shawn Doyle (Big Love, 24, Endgame) http://www.searchingforchetbaker.com/2011/06/interview-shawn-doyle-big-love-endgame.html 2. Album Review: John Legend + The Roots "Wake Up!" - http://www.searchingforchetbaker.com/2010/09/review-john-legend-roots-wake-up.html 3. Interview with "Rench" from the hip hop/bluegrass band "Gangstagrass", who did the theme song to the FX series "Justified" - http://www.searchingforchetbaker.com/2011/06/interview-rench-from-gangstagrass.html 4. Editorial: Criminalizing Homelessness - http://www.searchingforchetbaker.com/2011/06/criminalizing-homelessness.html
  5. I think this video may be the most creative I've seen in quite awhile. Very cool and very fun video. They're rapping so fast I can't quite pick up all of what they are saying, but visually it's pretty cool and I'd love to see a making of... of this video.
  6. With Will wearing that jacket, that's GOTTA be from an episode of the show. No way was he out wearing that jacket in his everyday life. lmao
  7. Yeah I know that, but I actually had someone give me that line. I think it stems from Will suddenly becoming a mega star and people thinking that since they didn't see Jeff in all his movies, that somehow it equaled him blowing up and forgetting about his friend. Which I'm sure led to that song "Potnas", I'm guessing. I know that Jeff has addressed that in the past. One of the thing was that because Jeff only had limited role on Fresh Prince, and that seeing as how that was Will's man and all that Will should have gotten him a bigger role. I read somewhere where Jeff said that he didn't WANT a bigger role, and that he didn't WANT to do movies and whatnot, but for some people who want to spread gossip that wasn't enough I suppose. Reminds me of that line from the ItsTheReal video with Nick Cannon where they were like "Hey all you gossip mongers need to stop mongering gossip!" lmao
  8. ahhhhhhhh that's probably it. lol. I don't watch Family Guy.
  9. Okay this is kind of weird. I posted on my blog a story last year (or maybe the year before) about Jeff being kicked out of a club for playing hip hop. (insert Uncle Phil throwing Jazz out the house joke here). And now whenever I check my feedjit page to see all the places my blog hits are coming from, there's always a TON of hits coming in on that article by people searching google for "DJ Jazzy Jeff Homeless" or "Is DJ Jazzy Jeff Homeless?" Now I figured this could be one of a couple things. 1. This could be born out of a rumor. I remember plenty of people I know telling me that Will left Jeff behind when he got famous and Jeff was broke or whatever. Now we know that's not how it went down, but for some reason there are still those who believe that. And so I thought maybe it came from that. 2. Perhaps early in his life he was homeless, and he mentioned it in an interview or something, and that's where the searches are stemming from. Anyone know anything about this? It drives me CRAZY seeing that all the time and not knowing what the heck it's about. lol. Thank you very much. Been awhile since I've been here. Good to be back.
  10. I had these awhile back and all the links I can find here are dead. Can someone upload these on rapidshare or megaupload? Also I'd love to get the entire westwood interview with him and Jeff that had the Lean Back freestyle.
  11. A city in Europe. Also this! lol http://www.sofia.usra.edu/
