JumpinJack AJ

I had no idea it was dropping yesterday until yesterday. I'm gonna write my review soon. I was wondering if anyone else has gotten the album. It's not the Hip-Hop album we all wanted, but it's got 4 or so Hip-Hop joints on it. The rest of it is a mix of R-N-B and Mainstream Urban. I wish it was straight Hip-Hop but i'm still liking this alot.

TLC Prepping First U.S. Concert in Seven Years Posted Aug 25th 2009 12:45PM by Latifah Muhammad Filed under: R'n'B News The women of TLC are looking to get back into the swing of things by way of their first stateside concert in seven years. Although now a duo, following the 2002 death of member Left-Eye, T-Boz and Chilli are billed to play at the "Justin Timberlake and Friends" benefit concert on October 16. Hosted by the Grammy-winning singer, the concert will take place at Las Vegas' Mandalay Bay Events Center and will also feature performances by Alicia Keys, Ciara and Taylor Swift. The annual event is accompanied by Timberlake's charity gold tournament, which will take place October 16-18. Tickets for the concert go on sale Saturday. Following the death of Lisa "Left-Eye" Lopes, TLC maintained a low profile. In 2004 T-Boz, born Tionne Watkins and Chilli, born Rozonda Thomas, starred in the reality show 'R U The Girl?' where they searched for a new group member. After crowning 20-year-old Tiffany Baker as the show's winner, the threesome never recorded an album stating that they had no intentions of replacing Left-Eye. Known for colossal hits like 'Creep,' 'Waterfalls,' and 'No Scrubs,' the trio became the first female group to have an album go diamond-with over 10 million units sold of their sophomore album 'CrazySexyCool.' Once the biggest selling girl group of all time, TLC's musical success has been riddled with financial-lows most notably when they filed for bankruptcy in 1995. Both T-Boz and Chilli are said to be working on solo releases ------------------------------------ Am i crazy 2 be considering going out 2 Vegas 2 see this? I have a feeling they'll begin 2 do more shows so i should probably wait. I got a few days 2 figure this out...ha ha.

Definitely a few albums i'm interested in getting. I knew they were working 2 get that Q-Tip album out...i didin't know it was happening. I also didn't know about the Rakim one. I wonder how the John Forte one is gonna be. There's alot of non-Hip-Hop albums coming out that i'm hyped for...Mariah Carey's, Colbie Callait's, LeToya, All-4-One. This is the time of year that big albums start dropping with the holidays right around the corner. Alot of these people are gonna remind us what music should be like...and that it's still okay 2 buy albums.

I don't think Hancock was good enough of a movie to have a sequel. I guess there is stuff they could do with the story but do they really need to? Since all of this movies do well they just wanna do sequels to all of them. The problem is, only a very few are the kind of movies that can make total sense by having sequels.

I wish i could get excited about this.

Ugh...Jada is one bad check...but this just isn't authentic 2 me....which is good cuz i think this is terrible.

AQUALUNG - Brighter Than Sunshine Strange & Beautiful (2005)

Wow, that was awful. What does JJ+FP have to 2 with that hot mess, dirty south, ghetto trash?...other than doing a weak version of "Apache" in the middle of the video?

JJ+FP - I'm All That Homebase (1991)

JAY-Z, RIHANNA, + KANYE WEST - Run This Town Blueprint 3 (2009) I like the beat at the minute mark when it finally drops. I like Jay-Z not doing his predictable flow...but i'm not in love with his flow. Kanye sounds good 2 any of that Heartbreak + 808 crap but he'll never be better than below average. His voice just doesn't command any attention and his lyrics and flow are always a bit sloppy. I like Rihanna on the hook. I can't wait til she desides 2 be pretty again. Time 2 throw on some acoustic 2 fall asleep 2...i'm thinking about my man Keirnan McMullan... p.s. Brakes, page 60...u know what that means...

I still need 2 get his new album...shame on me!! JJ+FP - Summertime (DJ Jazzy Jeff's Mix) Summertime (CD Single) (1991)

AJ's life story...coming soon...

Yeah, i don't wanna claim to be a know-it-all or anything but "Summertime" is straight Fresh Prince. His lyrics, style, and writing parttern of each era are so strong that u can tell when it's all him...and Homebase is all him. I was listening 2 it on the way home from work 2day and just being sucked back in 1991. Classic FP.

Funny. Was FP properly interviewed during that show...cuz it looks like i missed this one. I've never seen it before.

The beat is dope and the lyrics are great. I know nothing about the group but i'll be getting this remix album.

JASON MRAZ - Curbside Prophet Sold Out (In Stereo) (2002) I must add that Jason Mraz broke a record this past week. "I'm Yours" has been in Billboard's Top 100 for 70 weeks. This is the 1st time this has happened since 1951! It entered the charts in May 2008 and after the 1st 6 weeks it has stayed in the top 40. Black Eyed Peas have been in the top spot for 20 weeks...this record broke Usher's in 2004 for "Yeah" and "Burn."

I mean, it looks alright for being F 2 the A 2 the K 2 the E. Nobody else's name would go b4 FP's and like pointed out earlier her, he's be on the poster. Not sure why that 3rd name is there tho.'

That was hilarious.

How did commercial rap get 2 where it is from where real Hip-Hop started.

Here's something I came across that has Eminem's earliest work to be "un" released yet. To me it sounds like it's from 1992ish. I didn't get 2 listen 2 the lyrics but he's on a totally different tip. The pictures are hilarious and dope at the same time...ha ha. Very interesting 2 hear. There's also a silly (yet crappy) song called "MC Hammer Vs. Vanilla Ice" that features Proof for those of u who liked him. http://www.rapbasement.com/eminem/081909-eminem-in-the-soul-intent-days-before-he-signed-with-dr-dre.html

Awesome article. Thanx for posting this. I don't think i've seen him in anything else. He just has a vibe that makes me think he probably one of the most talented actors of our time. I hope i get 2 see some stuff that supports that.

It's good 2 see they are finally moving on with this. I don't know if everyone is still following up on the news....Janet has finished shooting the sequel to Why Did I Get Married and is working on a new album with Jimmy Jam + Terry Lewis. There's talks of a Jackson 8 tour that she'll headline. I also saw that MJ's doctor put up a video on YouTube and isn't straightening out any of the wrinkles in the story of his last 24 hours.

TONE LOC - Loc'in On The Shaw Loc-ed After Dark (1989)

I just read another article on AOL's Pop Eater where it says she's opening for Kanye West?! She goes onto say how gay she is, how gay her music is, how gay her fans are and how gay her show is....ha ha. Being gay is one thing the Hip-Hop community has never taken well. How is the audience who is coming 2 see Kanye going to take this...ha ha. Wait a minute, after his last album, how many real Hip-Hop fans does he have left.?? The character thing is totally accurate. She just said that she was physically bi and emotionally straight in an article i read awhile ago. Now she's gay. "Artists" who play games like this rarely last. How long can u pretend 2 be something else b4 u start 2 hate yourself? It's usually about as long as the fans stick around.

Why do people believe crap like that. Until Code Red, JJ+FP was very exclusive 2 themselves. They almost never had guest emcees, singers, producers. "Summertime" is straight JJ+FP. Jeff has confirmed that no one else wrote "Summertime"...the article may even be somewhere in this post.
