  4. well maybe a few thousand times.. ive probably listened to twinkle twinkle abt 5000 times tho :lolsign:
  5. I've kind of wrestled with which is Will's best album for years now.. but I think I've finally come to the conclusion..it is Code Red.. How do I judge that.. Well heres my reasons why.. The Amount of Times I've Listened to the Album: Code Red is my most listened to album ever Ive probably listened to it over 10, 000 times... How it Sounds Today: I can listen to this album..and it doesnt sound old or dated.. it still sounds fresh 12 years later... The Production: I Think this is one of the best produced albums in hip hop history..seriously well produced... The Beats: Pete Rock, Teddy Riley, Dallas Austin, DJ Jazzy Jeff & Hula & K.Fingers(Summertime) That is probably the best collection of producers in hip hop, especially in the 90s.. What makes the album so timeless and so easy to listen to over and over again..is the beats..they are simply amazing Fresh Prince Rhymes: If you break down the tracks..each song sort of has a purpose, fresh princes rhymes are extremely focussed and on point The Style: Code Red is a wonderful mix of old school stylings, old skool JJFP with a new raw harder 1993 sound, its a beautiful blend that just..works! The Tempo: Listening to the album, it has a great mix of uptempo tracks and downtempo chilled out tracks..it just flows extremely well... Party & Serious: You could listen to Code Red and easily say COde Red is best party rap album ever made.. its great to throw in at a party..and to dance to..but equally its just as good to sit back and chill to with tracks like aint no place like home just kickin it and shadow dreams No Filler: With just 12 tracks theres no room for weak tracks and there isnt any, each song is different nothing sounds the same, and there are no tracks to continually skip.. The fact that From Da South and Get Hyped (2 great JJFP tracks) didnt make the album is a sign of its quality Anyone can enjoy Code Red: From lorettas to the JJFP Hype Fan to Hip Hop Heads to Pop Rap fans.. everyone can get down with this album... So those are my reasons for declaring Code Red as Will Smith's Best Album :2thumbs:
  6. while everyones promoting make sure you mention this website.. if you direct people to http://wwww.jazzyjefffreshprince.com the Will Smith & Jazzy Jeff Fan Site they might learn a thing or two :word:
  7. those smart playlists are dope! i got a few going :2thumbs:
  8. the sad thing is lorettaville is probably an accurate depeiction.. I'd say 70-80% would be lorettatypes..and about 20% would be real fans..loyal fans..there through it all..or it just seems that way... :hmm:
  9. Check it out..its dope Casual - Say That Then

  22. Noise Mag MUSIC REVIEWS Will Smith - Lost and Found Seth Saltzman I don’t think enough can be said of Will Smith’s music career in one review. Will Smith, a.k.a. Big Willie, a.k.a. The Fresh Prince has been making music for nearly twenty years and it doesn’t look like he’s going to stop anytime soon. With a hard, new attitude and a raw style to match, Will is trying to make a successful return to the rap game. But can this old school, good feeling, simplistic rapper make it in the new world of hip-hop where guns and drugs seem to reign supreme? As the album begins, one word comes to mind: corny. As the beat for the intro track “Here He Comes” drops, which is produced by his long time friend DJ Jazzy Jeff, it’s obviously a sample of the old Spiderman theme song. “He can act he can rap/And if it comes down to it, he can scrap.” But the wait to hear Will spit is defiantly worth the wait. Will seems to have stepped his game up to a whole new level. “In the past he, passed with passion/Old fashioned boldly mashin’ totally crashin’.” Moving along, Smith continues the album with the club-and-radio-friendly, yet lyrically healthy “Party Starter” and the equally party friendly lead single “Switch,” in which Will quips “It ain’t like I like a chick on chick or something.” But along with the songs with hooks to make you move, Will goes deeper into his mind, heart and soul then ever before. In the aw inspiring track “Tell Me Why” featuring Mary J. Bliege, Smith asks the oh-so-prominent question in today’s times: “why?”. Will doesn’t spare the emotion when touching on the subjects of 9/11, priest scandal, and BIG and Pac’s murders. Will even manages to drop the “f-bomb” during the song, but intentionally bleeps it out with studio magic. Another notable on the album are “Mr. Nice Guy” in which will explains why he hasn’t responded to Eminem’s diss about a half of a decade ago. “Big Will just did another 20 mill’, walk right past he.” The Fresh Prince also manages to call out outspoken radio personalities Wendy Williams and Larry Elder. “Lost And Found” has it’s downfalls, though. “Pump Ya Brakes” featuring Snoop Dogg finds Will and Snoop seemingly uncomfortable over the stringy O. Banga and The Freshmen beat. Also, the need for three versions of the same song (“Switch”) on one album is a bit repetitive and annoying. Overall, Will brings to the table a lyrical assault that no one seems to have predicted. Songs like “Scary Story,” in which Will explains in the chorus “This is just a story about a young man comin’ up in the rap game,” and the supposed true story of a female stalker “Loretta” showcases the ability he seems to have never lost, but has built upon.
