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)

Her new movie looks really good. I couldn't copy the text for the article so you'll find the link below. It has her and Dolly Parton teaming up, playing 2 choir leaders fighting over the position. http://ugospel.com/queen-latifah-and-dolly-parton-go-gospel-in-new-movie-%E2%80%9Cjoyful-noise%E2%80%9D/?utm_source=uGospel&utm_campaign=cc38000e4c-uGospel+Daily+eNEWS&utm_medium=email

DIGITAL UNDERGROUND - Kiss You Back Sons of P (1991) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NHVoGse2LLI This song is forever dope!

SHOCK-G - Cinnamon Waves Fear of a Mixed Planet (2006) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X1Qys4XSskI

NICK CANNON + UNCLE MURDER - Warning (2011)

Ha ha...I used to like this song back in '98. I have to admit, I don't like it nearly as much any more. CRU + SLICK RICK - Just Another Case Da Dirty 30 (1997)

What are you talking about? Did you click the link? It's the vocals/music video for "Boom! Shake The Room" over the "Smells Like Teen Spirit" instrumental. They fit together perfectly and even compliment each other.

POETIC HUSTLAZ + LAZIE BONE - Day And Night (CD SIngle) (1998)

I'll agree that he's better than most people on the radio these days...but who isn't. I wasn't a fan of his music and I think he's overrated. I thought the gasps of breath between lines were gross. He did work some of my favorite artists though..Fresh Prince, Heavy D, Digital Underground, Lord Tariq + Peter Gunz.

I heard this when they 1st post it. I'm not crazy about the watered down radio-ready beat but Naughty and Joe are on it, as always. This could make it on the radio. I hope there's no other songs on the album that sound like this though.

B. RIETH - Cold World The Forecast EP (2009)

STACIE ORRIO - More To Life (self-titled) (2003)

LL COOL J - Hot Hot Hot Phenomenon (1997) I've always loved the message of this song. But this has go to be LL"S worst video ever...lol. I NEVER saw it aired on TV. The remixes of this song are even better.

BUSTA RHYMES - Everything Remains Raw The Coming (1996) This is Busta's best album...I haven't listened to it in a minute. It's taking me back to a good place.

I heard a J. Cole song a little bit ago and didn't like it at all. I think it was that Trey Songz. I recently peeped his album and I love it! I like at least three quarters of it. Just listening to it took me back to a good place. A place where I was actually excited about a Hip-Hop or Rap album. Unlike all the current guys, this guy as a voice, he has a variety of focused subject matter PLUS his beats are solid.

That's FP being the team player for young/current rap. We know he usually takes that position rather than talk about how the popular face of Hip-Hop has nothing 2 do with Hip-Hop. He saves it for songs like "Party Starter" and "Lost + Found" and "I Wish I Made That" to vent. Another thing, he has met most of these popular rappers and they likely tell him how much they admire him (tho' they are often quick to keep that to themselves). They become casual acquaintances who FP knows are not murders, drug dealers, etc so he supports them because they are cool with each other. The 'Prince is never going to condone phony, unoriginal, gangsta rap. When he had Snoop jump on a song, it was a bouncy Jazzy Jeff produced, comical straight Hip-Hop record. There was no compromising and it was one of the many times Snoop has shown he's not strictly make the same kinda music he did when he came out.

VESTA - Somebody For Me Relationship (1998) Rest in peace.

I think in most cases, at least these days, beef is corny. What business do older men have insulting each other in music? When 50 and Game do it, I think they look pathetic. It's embarrassing.

True, if people showed him more appreciation and supported his music more, he'd release more. I think "I Wish I Made That" and "Lost + Found" made that pretty clear. He knows people love his music, but without the BWS fanbase (or even half of that), he probably doesn't feel that "in demand."
