I don't mind that E-40 song...but his collaborators aren't any good. That Janet joint is a classic! She needs to come back big with her next album. R-N-B has been pretty tired for years. 2PAC - Papa'z Song Strictly For My.... (1993)

THE SCRIPT - Nothing (2010)

How is KRS-One paranoid? He's a legend and arguably the best emcee ever. There's NOTHING about Lil' Wayne to praise. If he's dissing him, it's because his music and character is absolute garbage...a new all time low for music.

Lil' Wayne is the worse rapper ever. Literally. Where does he have room to diss anyone? lol

AALIYAH - We Need A Resolution (self-titled) 2001 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rVXLq8owINo I can't believe 10 years have passed.

I watch Hawthorne from time to time but I never see any scenes that he is in. That scene above is hot...and awkwardly long...but I'd never humor the idea of something going on between them. I think everyone is buggin' out of over this. I'm not paying attention to it anymore. I did stumble across this video of them today...normal as ever... http://www.tmz.com/videos?autoplay=true&mediaKey=f5f0739e-b1d9-4408-8414-94aa139795b6

Tim, that song is dope! BOYZ II MEN - The Perfect Love Song The Remedy (2007)

This was posted a year and a half ago I believe. I love it! I post it on my Facebook every few months.

Let just say that all the pix and videos and this news surrounding the movement in his music are just making my life great right now...lol. I TOLD U THIS WOULD HAPPEN! It's not even really a comeback, he's picking up right where he left off.

I found this on AOL News... Will Smith, Jada Pinkett Smith Split? Couple Separating: Report UPDATE: Couple Denies Report First Posted: 8/23/11 10:31 AM ET Updated: 8/23/11 03:55 PM ET Celebrity Splits , Jada Pinkett Smith , Will Smith , Will Smith Jada Pinkett Smith Kids , Will Smith Jada Pinkett Smith Marriage , Will Smith Jada Pinkett Smith Separating , Slidepollajax , Will Smith Jada Pinkett , Celebrity News UPDATE IV: Smith and Pinkett have put out a statement denying the rumors, saying, "Although we are reluctant to respond to these types of press reports, the rumors circulating about our relationship are completely false. We are still together, and our marriage is intact." _____ UPDATE III: Pinkett's representative issued a statement through Entertainment Tonight, saying, "Everything about the Marc Anthony story is completely false, but we are not commenting on whether they are separating or not." _____ UPDATE II: Will's son Trey denied the story via Twitter earlier in the day, saying: "Will and Jada getting a DIVORCE ..NOT TRUE AT ALL !! RETWEET" _____ UPDATE: When contacted about the story by TMZ, Pinkett's rep said, "What? In Touch said that? I know nothing about this... Lord. I'm going back to bed." Radar Online quotes a family member, who asked not to be identified, as saying, “No way are they splitting up. They are totally together and are not separating." _____ PREVIOUSLY: In Touch Weekly is reporting that Will Smith and Jada Pinkett are separating. Their reps have not confirmed the story. The pair, who met when Pinkett auditioned for "The Fresh Prince of Bel Air," married on December 31st, 1997. They have two children together, budding pop stars Jaden and Willow, and Pinkett is the step mother of Smith's older son from a previous marriage, Trey. Speaking to YourTango in 2007, Pinkett described how they first got together. "After we had known each other for many years, we went out for dinner one night with mutual friends and I saw that he had grown from this lanky kid to this really responsible man," she said. "We started courting each other and our friendship turned into romance." In 2008, Smith spoke with Ellen Degeneres about their marriage, which he implied would last forever. "What I found is divorce just can't be an option," he said. "It's really that simple. And I think that's the problem with L.A. – there are so many options. So a huge part of the success for [Jada] and I is that we just removed the other options." Whether it was cause or effect is uncertain, but that dedication certainly coincided with an active sex life, including a romp on the way to the Oscars in 2010. Speaking to Uptown Magazine in June, Pinkett said, "People think that Will and I don’t spend a lot of time together. Too much time, actually, if you ask me. It’s always nice to have a little time apart. Sometimes you need that.”

This is so random...very funny.

I just want to say that I'm happy the JJ+FP section has been moved back up to the TOP of the board where it should be. I must admit that I cringed every time I saw the Jaden and Willow forums at the top. I think they deserve a forum...but not at the top of main JJ+FP website online.

In a word....DOPE!

I think some things are changing. I think auto-tune is steadily dying. I think the watered down Euro-wanna-be dance sound is slowly dying. The last 5-8 years of music haven't offered much when it came to popular music. When it comes to rap and top 20 songs, they've been forgettable and by artists that are forgettable. It's been painful to watch artists like Usher, Rihanna, Ne-Yo, and Jamie Foxx make embarrassing music that isn't worthy of being mentioned with their previous work. I like some music that gives a nod to music of the past, but I don't think it's going to dominate the future. I appreciate it, but not all of it grabs me. To be honest, I haven't even picked up the new Raphael Saddiq album because I just didn't like it much when I peeped it. I think music is very interesting right now. There's many artists having fun with their music during what many people would say are some of the darkest and most stressful times that much of the world is experiencing. Reading what's in the news is amazing in a disgusting sort of way. Entertainment truly is one of the only real escape that many people have...and many of those people can't even afford it. I think that if musicians and emcees realized what sort of "power" and responsibility they have, we wouldn't the Black Eyed Peas making songs like "Dirty Bit."

Why are we titling this this post with "If"? There's no question that he's back! No surprises here... Emcees: LL Cool J Common Sense Queen Latifah KRS-One Chuck D R-N-B Artists: Boyz II Men Musiq Soulchild Jill Scott Brian McKnight Tatyana Ali Other...if he's feeling experimental and it works: Shaggy Jason Mraz Colbie Caillat Producers: DJ Jazzy Jeff...that's it. But since it looks like he's working with multiple producers, here's a few other... Pete Rock Former A Touch of Jazz Producers DJ Premier Teddy Riley

I think it's funny that everyone is this surprised. He NEVER said he was done rhyming. There was one quote where he said it may be a thing of the past and the quote where Jaden didn't think it was worth it, but that was it. He's the same person he's always been. He still performed from time to time at certain events. This is the longest break he's ever taken from music. Code Red to Big Willie Style was the 2nd longest and look how crazy he stirred up the game back then. This is going to be HUGE. And if the Fresh Prince is huge, then there could be a revival of real Hip-Hop and legendary emcees getting some shine again. I must admit, after seeing official news of this, life is just brighter. U guys need to stop being so negative waiting for him to announce it, he ALWAYS works under that radar at 1st when it comes to his music. He's always liked to keep people guessing. Fact: FP is back!

Who am I kidding, I've been dying 2 get 2 the board since I heard the news!! I TOLD U SO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Guys, you must think so badly of me.

People these days are so stupid an immature...and ignorant. You don't fight over something so stupid and let it escalate to that. Props to Alfonso for stepping in during a time that most people turn away and ignore it.

LFO - Every Other Time Life Is Good (2001) This whole album reminds me of Summer. I got it and was disappointed that they gave it more of a rock edge...but over time it grew into one of my favorite albums ever. It's been almost a year since Rich passed on. I'm invited to his memorial this Fall. Rest in peace, brother.

It has never settled with me well when someone takes a sample and uses their own talent, lyrics, or subject matter (or lack of it) and tarnishes it due to their musical lackings. This never really happened in the old school. Most popular artists these days are lyrically ignorant or boring, the subject matter is trashy or non-existent, their so-called talent is questionable....and that put their nonsense on top of a classic, credible piece of music. Chuck D is saying something that should have been said a long time ago.

This videos are dope! First we have Fresh Prince the hype man...then he returns to his early stomping grounds for Lady B's 30th...all after showing up are the Charlie Mack event. All this is very refreshing after the last few years. He never said he's retired from rhyming. Everybody needs to quit with that. We all know Jaden is rapping. Some of know FP will be doing the same....it's gonna happen.

I haven't gotten anything new in awhile. There's simply nothing good out and I don't spend the few spare moments of my day looking for underground talent. I've been listening to a lot 90's R-N-B recently. As far as Hip-Hop, I've just be revisiting music by MC Lyte, Skee-Lo, MC Brains and of course, JJ+FP.

This smilies are mad gangsta, son! :bowl:

I like the face lift. You didn't reinvent the wheel...but it's the perfect upgrade! I still miss the red/green forum tho'...lol.
