  1. I like the energy on this. I like Beastie Boys but i've never been in2 'em that much. I have a handful of their albums. I liked Nas on his 1st 2 albums...since then he's done some blah stuff and some other good stuff...it just doesn't stay in my head and i don't go back 2 those albums. I like that Nas is working with peeps like BB instead of all of the commercial rap crap that his peers are working with. I just heard this song earlier 2day for the 1st time.
  2. The reason they give props 2 Lil' Waynes is becuz they probably don't follow commercial rap at all. Because Lil' Wayne is the most popular right now, they name drop who is more popular because it's hard 2 keep up with all the rappers since more of their careers are over in a year or 2. Can u imagin LL Cool J or any other emcee at that level seriously buying and listening 2 Lil' Wayne?!?!
  3. SOUL IV REAL - Every Little Thing I Do Candy Rain (1995) Man, i'm getting 2 know this album all over again. I miss R-N-B like this. SIVR needs 2 come back. Their 1999 album was good. Brothers don't break up...what happened?
  4. LL looks good...fresh, full of energy. He's definitely taking the high road. U can see stuff brewing in his head that just isn't being said. That fact that he said Lil' Wayne is talented is hilarious. I don't really believe he thinks that. He would have been more specific if he really admired him. How long is he gonna keep this attitude that he's not gonna do another full album. His most recent one just isn't holding me over. I only really liked about 6 or 7 tracks off that album. I thought the rest of it was his worst work ever musically...not so much lyrically.
  5. I know i've seen this performed sometime b4...but i don't think it was this performance. I remember when Tim told me about this track years ago. We were like "he can't really be on this song." I got the vinyl and there was the Fresh Prince...ha ha. Actually having him introduce who all was on the track helps u realize how new the concept was of mashing up the genres. Seeing the intro 2 the performance made me realize what a big deal the song was and the big names that were on it. The summer that Bad Boys 2 came out i was the lead in a rock and roll musical (Leader of The Pack) that was about the life of Ellie Greenwich who was singing background. Crazy how stuff like that ties 2gether. Thanx for posting this. 2 bad Whodini didn't make it 2 the performance. I also have 2 rub in that i found a rare CD promo of this song w/ the remixes.
  6. I've seen the commercial u are talking about. I'm talking about one that aired last summer. Why is this post still alive?
  7. Aresenio did and interview with the Prince where he was just wildin' out. I don't remember much from the interview other than FP being silly...maybe some mama jokes and making the interview difficult. I've only seen it once. U can probably find the interview on YouTube.
  8. LFO - Baby Be Mine LFO (1999) Seeing them live on Thursday...way 2 hyped...ha ha.
  9. RUN-DMC - Hit 'Em Hard Down With The King (1992)
  10. I really like "A Place With No Name." "Beautiful Girl" is a track off MJ's The Ultimate Collection from 2004 (i think...i know i have it). Since i've been listening 2 more MJ recently, there's a whole new energy that i'm picking up from his music. Certain lyrics mean more lyrically 2 me than what they meant back in the day.
  11. I am talking about this day in age. I mean, who is popular right now other than Lil' Wayne? Let's be honest. 2005, as crappy as it was, was in a better place than than 2009. The decline in the past 4 years has been about progressive as the last 8 or 10 years prior 2 that are. Who actually has a career in rap anymore? Look at all the fly by night talentless rappers of a couple years ago. Young Jock is nowhere in sight. Hurricaine Chris is gone (tho he just tried 2 drop a new single recently), Lil' Scrappy...anyone remember him. These carbon copy jokes are strickly one hit wonders. I wasn't challenging the article as i agree with alot of it. I didn't realize Andy wrote it (i would have conveyed the same opinion but in a more constructive way...sorry). I am kinda sick of my own complaining on the topic...and talking about it. Which is why i feel that anything without lots of name dropping (which this article definitely did) and deeper detail is just what so many of us discussed over the years. It's crazy 2 think that once was Hip-Hop music with different subgenres and vibes has now branched off in2 2 different music styles that the uneducated would consider the same kind of music.
  12. Eh, i don't like that the writer actually acknowledges Lil' Wayne and Soulja Boy as Hip-Hop in anyway shape or form. There will always be different sides of Hip-Hop and there will always be a difference of opinion. But pretty much anything labeled Hip-Hop or Rap these days that gets any success is not Hip-Hop at all. I've never heard any commercial rap artist like Lil' Wayne or Soulja Boy ever do anything tied 2 Hip-Hop culture. With out the culture being laced in the music, it's just Rap. There's nothing really impressive about the article in my opinion but thanx for sharing.
  13. MICHAEL JACKSON - You Are Not Alone (Jon B. Remix) You Are Not Alone (Import CD Single) (1995) I didn't even know this remix existed until last year...finally got it recently. Dope remix.
  14. I don't do 2 much online... www.jazzyjefffreshprince.com (u may have heard of it) www.aol.com (my internet automatically opens up 2 this) www.myspace.com www.facebook.com www.youtube.com www.ebay.com www.cdnow.com www.yahoo.com
  15. I've never made a transaction that way...i only ever use Paypal these days. Back in the day I'd do cash, check, or money order thru' the mail. I'm sure there is a way 2 do that tho.' If u look around or check FAQ, it'll probably answer that for sure. U can alwasy contact Ebay themselves.
  16. Here's a bunch of news clips i got from AOL's Popeater. Also, if u look around, u'll see that Us Weekly obtained footage from the 1984 Pepsi commercial where MJ's hair caught on fire. U see him performing for 15 seconds (give or take) where he hair is toatlly on fire and he has no idea until everyone rushes him. When the crowd clears u can see the top center of his head is orange and glowing...it's actually quite disturbing 2 watch. ----------------------------------------------------------- LAPD Treating Jackson Death as Homicide Posted Jul 15th 2009 11:10AM by TMZ Staff Multiple law enforcement sources tell TMZ the LAPD is already treating Michael Jackson's death as a homicide, and they are focusing on Dr. Conrad Murray. Law enforcement sources tell us the evidence points to the anesthesia Propofol as the primary cause of Jackson's death. As we first reported, vials of Propofol were found in Jackson's home after he died. Law enforcement sources say there is already "plenty of powerful evidence" linking Dr. Murray as the person who administered the drug to Jackson. The evidence includes various items found in Jackson's house, including the Propofol, an IV stand and oxygen tank. Dr. Murray's lawyer would neither confirm nor deny if his client administered the Propofol. And we've learned the LAPD has had "multiple conversations" with the L.A. County District Attorney's office, although the case has not been formally presented to the D.A. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Anesthesia in Jackson Case Tracked We've learned several pharmaceutical companies have been contacted by the DEA in the Michael Jackson case and we're told authorities are getting closer to identifying which person may have supplied the powerful anesthesia Propofol that appears to have killed the singer. Sources tell us law enforcement found vials of Propofol in Michael Jackson's house after he died. The vials all have lot numbers. We're told several days ago the DEA contacted Teva Pharmaceuticals -- which manufactured one of the vials found at the house -- to determine who purchased it. Teva sells Propofol to medical distributors, who then turn around and sell the vials to hospitals and doctors. And, law enforcement sources say, the DEA also contacted other manufacturers of Propofol from the other vials found in Jackson's home. Here's the problem. Although every vial has a lot number, the vials are not marked individually. There are thousands of vials in a lot. So the DEA and LAPD are trying to hone in on the culprit but, we're told, it's no easy task. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rowe's Lawyer -- Debbie Doesn't Want MJ's Money Debbie Rowe's lawyer just fired off a letter to the New York Post ... demanding a retraction of its story that Rowe has accepted $4 million to walk away from Michael Jackson's two eldest kids. The letter -- written by Rowe's lawyer Eric George -- says "Among the several contenders for overzealous and inaccurate sensationalism, the New York Post has now seized top honors." George says "Ms. Rowe has not accepted -- and will not accept -- any additional financial consideration beyond the spousal support she and Michael Jackson personally agreed to several years ago." This is a very significant statement and we've confirmed it with another Jackson source. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jackson's Maid -- He Binged On Drugs One of Michael Jackson's former housekeepers told law enforcement the singer was often in such bad shape from drugs, his eyes would roll back in his head. We've obtained documents from the Santa Barbara County Sheriff Department's 1993 investigation into allegations of child molestation. Kristina Fournier told deputies back then ... she saw syringes while she was employed at Neverland. Deputies asked her if she ever saw Jackson inject himself with a hypodermic needle -- she said no. Fournier told deputies she was aware Jackson was under the influence of drugs and "under a doctor's care." Fournier said she saw doctors "come and go" at Neverland. And Fournier said, on the subject of Jackson's drug addiction, "I think he had good periods and bad periods, and when he had a bad period, he had a bad period. Then he would get off (referring to drugs) and then it would start again." Fournier said it was "well-known" among the Neverland staff that Jackson had a drug problem -- "Yes, and people would say, his eyes were rolling in the back of his head and he wouldn't know what he was talking about." -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Debbie Rowe Injected Jackson with Drugs Debbie Rowe frequently injected Michael Jackson with drugs while she worked for Jackson's dermatologist, Dr. Arnold Klein. We've obtained law enforcement documents from the 2005 molestation trial. Included in the records is an affidavit from a Santa Barbara County Sheriff's deputy who served a search warrant on Dr. Klein in 1993 to obtain Jackson's medical records during the first molestation investigation. In the affidavit, the deputy writes, in August 1993, "...Ms. Rowe observed the back of Jackson's body while she gave him massages to help him sleep. Ms. Rowe also observed Jackson's buttocks on numerous occasions when she gave him injections prior to acne treatments." The affidavit does not specify the type of drug Rowe administered. As we reported, Jackson sought out anesthesia and other sedatives for even minor procedures, including acne treatment. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jackson Doc Did Not Fully Cooperate The assistant coroner who just went to Dr. Arnold Klein's office for Michael Jackson's medical records just confirmed our story -- that he went to the office because Dr. Klein was not fully cooperating with their request for documents. Assistant Chief Coroner Ed Winter just told us ... on July 2 his office contacted Dr. Klein's office and requested Jackson's medical records. Klein's lawyer sent partial records and then promised to send the rest later, but never did. Winter told us his office then called Dr. Klein's rep to say they still hadn't received the documents but Klein's people never responded. And Winter says, that's why he went to Klein's office today. Winter tells us a lawyer for Dr. Klein was in the office and another lawyer was on the phone. Winter says the lawyers promised to ante up the additional files within 24 hours. We spoke to Ed after he talked to the press outside of Dr. Klein's office today -- when he said Klein had fully cooperated. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jackson's Docs Allegedly Manipulated Pharmacies We've obtained law enforcement documents from Michael Jackson's 2005 molestation trial -- and the depth of the singer's drug dependency is further surfacing. As far back as 1993, Jackson was using aliases to score drugs, according to an employee at the Neverland Ranch. Joey Jeszeck, who worked security, told Santa Barbara County Sheriff's deputies in 1993 that Jackson would ask him "to go to a pharmacy and pick up his prescription for him." Jeszeck said sometimes the scripts were in the name of other people. The report says: "Sometimes the pharmacy wouldn't release Jackson's medication to him since it was not in Jeszeck's name. Jackson would then call the doctor and have the prescription changed into the name of the person he was sending to pick it up." Jeszeck said "one of these doctors was Dr. Farshchian in Florida." -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jackson's Knack for Picking Friendly Docs Michael Jackson had a way of picking doctors who became such close friends with him that the doctor-patient distinction became blurred. Dr. Alex Farshchian from Miami was "awe-struck" by Jackson, according to former L.A. County Sheriff's Deputy Michael Laperruque, who worked security for Jackson. We obtained notes from an interview Laperruque had with detectives during the child molestation investigation in Santa Barbara. Laperruque said Dr. Farshchian was so enamored with Jackson, he invited the singer to stay at his house in Miami. Laperruque says Jackson took the doctor up on his offer and ended up staying in his converted garage. The question -- why would Jackson settle for such accommodations? Laperruque told detectives "Farshchian may have been over prescribing medication." Dr. Arnold Klein was Jackson's longtime friend and Beverly Hills dermatologist. Klein bragged on Larry King that he has slept in the same room as Jackson and shared a close bond with him, going on numerous vacations with the singer. One of Jackson's drivers told the coroner Jackson would spend 3 - 4 hours in Klein's office and come out looking disoriented. A former bodyguard said he also saw Jackson leave Klein's office looking out of it. And powerful prescriptions were found at Neverland -- prescribed by Dr. Klein. The prescriptions were written for Frank Tyson, who worked for Jackson. A former bodyguard said Jackson would use Tyson's name to score drugs. Klein has said he prescribed Demerol for Jackson, a drug to which Jackson was addicted. Dr. Allan Metzger, who practices in West Hollywood, went on one of Jackson's concert tours and was close to him. He even videotaped the singer's wedding to Debbie Rowe. Dr. Metzger received a public reprimand for prescribing drugs to Janet Jackson under an alias. Dr. Metzger would not tell us whether he ever prescribed drugs to Michael under an alias. He told us he has not been Jackson's doctor for years, but he spoke with him as recently as last April about medical issues and personal matters. Some medical experts suggest it's a bad idea for doctors to become close to their patients because the doctors must retain the power to say "no" when the patient wants something that is not medically appropriate. Whatever his motives, Michael Jackson had a talent for picking doctors who were more than happy to pick him as a friend.
  17. These were easy. So was the last one. The only one i'm dreading is Fresh Prince vs. Rakim. I would probably submerge myself in their entire body of works b4 voting on that one. I honestly can't see Common Sense beating Rakim...however, Common has stretched a bit more than Rakim during his career. Mos Def is nice but i also see him as kinda 1 sided musically. And when he does experiment, it's usually not a good thing.
  18. I've read/heard a few things recently where she's been dissing Bay. She is too new in this acting game 2 be dissing the vets and biting the hand that feeds her. Let's be real. She's fine, but she's not as fine as ever 13 year old things. And until she does a role that displays any real acting, she shouldn't have the attitude she has. There are movies like Transformers where acting is going 2 take the passenger seat (or even the backseat) 2 the action and special effects. Bay seems like he might be a lil' weird...but whatever. If she has a problem with Transformers or being in a bikini in a movie...then don't do it.
  19. Not in "some form"...orginal form. We don't want FP's verse(s) taken off and we don't want them doctored. 2Pac's and Left Eye's music have been runined by that. Unless it's being advertised as a remix album 2 music that has been released in it's original form...i only want the orginals.
  20. Jackson's Glove Hid Disease, Pal Says PopEater posted: 16 HOURS 20 MINUTES AGOcomments: 404filed under: Music NewsPrintShareText SizeAAAMichael Jackson's sequined white glove became a signature fashion item for the King of Pop, but according to a friend of Jackson, it was really used to cloak the early stages of his skin disease. Actress Cicely Tyson, a longtime friend of Jackson, says that she shared a fashion designer with the pop star in the '80s, and saw him design the glove. Skip over this content AP "All of a sudden, he said, 'I'm doing this glove for Michael.' Michael was beginning to develop the vitiligo and it started on his hand. The glove was to cover the vitiligo; that's how that glove came into being," Tyson said during an interview with Larry King. "I was there when he was creating it," she said. Vitiligo is a disease that causes the skin to lighten in blotches. In a recent interview, Jackson's dermatologist Dr. Arnold Klein said that Jackson's particular case "was bad because he began to get a speckled look over his body ... All over his body -- but on his face and hands, which is hard to treat."
  21. JANET JACKSON - Put Your Hands On All Nite Long (CD Single) (2004)
  22. Mos Def vs. Slick Rick and 2Pac vs. Common Sense were the ones i didn't know what 2 expect. I mean, how do u compare those guys? They are just so different that even tho' we are focusing on skillz, lyrics, and flow, they are just so different and equally good on so many levels. Alot of people underestimate the Fresh Prince. There's no reason that he shouldn't have come this far.
  23. I really don't think the did a track for Willennium. I'm pretty sure the track(s) they did was only ever intended for Invincible.
  24. LL COOL J - Dear Hip-Hop Exit 13 (2008) Can't wait for LL 2 change his mind and drop a new album. I should be getting the Alicia Keys "Teenage Love Affair" Import CD Single soon featuring the remix with LL's rap. I can't wait for some new LL.
