Nothing about music Hip-Hop and Rap NOW is better than what it was back in the day. Even the few good artists NOW aren't any better than the artists of yesteryear. And I certainly can't see how the industry in the 90's wasn't good. I think it goes way beyond people liking music from when they were younger. There's a new music I like in other genres better than old stuff from the genre. I can't can't image what educated person could like the watered down dance beats, subject-lacking, auto-tuned trash of today MORE than the music of the 90's and even the early 2000's. It's hard to imagine there's a taste for that. I just think people will like whatever gets played...it has nothing to do with quality or or relevance.

I mean, I KNEW this was gonna happen...but it sure feels amazing to read it and see it coming straight from Jazzy's mouth. I'm so freaking excited for this!!!!!!!!

DMX - Last Hope ? (2011) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YvoyOmqVYmI This is his best song in YEARS!

The 90's were dope...period. *Albums rarely got shelved *Albums usually got about 3 music videos/singles *Album music got played on the radio *Singles were released featuring remixes, b-sides, instrumentals, etc * Collaborations were an event, not a necessity *Most artists were required to have talent and at least some individuality *Labels stuck behind the artist stronger/longer *Soundtracks! ...nuff said.

Looks good. I'm loving the free mixtapes (even though I had most of them). I LOOOOOOOVE the shirts.

MICHAEL BUBLE - Lost Call Me Irresponsible (2007) Always loooved this song.

ALANA DAVIS - 32 Flavors Blame It On Me (1997)

I think music is be available...but mostly in places like department stores that will carry a variety of things. I don't think it will ever go 100% online-only. I'm all for a healthy music industry but I don't feel that the constant changes are leading to that. It's only gotten worse and worse over the past 10 years. The internet helps indie artists get recognized most easily but I feel that there will also be some corporate force that always assists most of the artists who are popular become/stay popular.

MONTELL JORDAN - Say Yes Let's Ride (1998)

Thanx for posting. I LOVE THIS!! The song is dope and the video is great. I love the color. I don't see J. Cole as FP but I guess the 2nd half of his verse kinda reminded me of "Candy" or something from the BWS era.

Notice I said "worthy of"...meaning there are good songs on this list that could be considered for it. I'm certainly not going to care about the list that much and pull it apart.

Jive was on fire from the mid 80's thru' the mid-90's. DJ Jazzy Jeff + Fresh Prince, KRS-One/Boogie Down Productions, A Tribe Called Quest, Too Short, Aaliyah, R. Kelly, Fu-Schnickens, Shaquille O'Neal, Whodini, Kool Moe Dee, etc...

Love her...thanx for posting this.

The shelf life of what happens in the music industry is so short now that it's rare for old music to get proper treatment. If FP has another album like BWS, anything is possible.

DANI STEVENSON - Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo Yo (CD Single) (2002)

I think maybe half of the songs are worthy of the list.

It's going to be weird not seeing those staple names around anymore. I miss the old days of a healthy (and talented) music industry.

I don't like the reboot idea. I just think the sequel and future movies need to be better than the 1st. I still think he can take the John Stewart role and work alongside the existing cast. Green Lantern is an ensemble kind of super hero movie. It's kind of hard seeing him playing as part of an ensemble.

I like seeing the dynamic of him working with people but ultimately I only really want him working with Jeff.

I mean no disrespect with this statement, but I feel like FP is just letting him hang around. There is one inevitable truth; K Smith should have nothing to do with music. Anyone find it strange strange that Willow had a hit right out the box and Jaden had a hit with Justin Bieber on his first track...yet K Smith has been recording for years and has nothing to show for it except a following on YouTube?

THE WEDDING SINGER-THE ORIGINAL BROADWAY CAST - Saturday Night In The City The Wedding Singer (2006) This is the top of my list when it comes to show I want to do. Even if you aren't into musicals, I think you'd find something on this recording that you'd like. Plus Grandma has a Hip-Hop joint...lol

I love the artsy vibe. Nice work. I'm so happy I've gotten back into acting this year and I really wanna focus on my singing and whatnot, but for the first time in a while, I've wanted to return to experimenting with music. Who knows what next years holds? There's not alot of shows that I know I'd wanna be a part in my area though out 2012.

TLC - Switch CRaZySeXyCOol (1994)

SPICE GIRLS - Voo Doo Greatest Hits (2008)

TLC - Who's It Gonna Be Unreleased/3D (2002)
