I remember when this aired on TV. It's AMAZING how Mariah Carey can sing the heck out of the simplest and most oversung song of all time. Both Ali and FP were funny. :lolsign: I have a recording of this somewhere.

The saddest thing is...we could.

Sorry man, i just thought u were trying 2 hard...forgive me. Why we are on that topic tho', who really cares how expensive a video looks. Sure, give me something big budget like "Wild Wild West" once in awhile, but i just want a video that represents the song and keeps my attention for about 4 minutes. I didn't see anything wrong with it. Is "So Fresh" wack just becuz they tried 2 do it on a 1988 budget?

It goes both ways. "I Think I Can Beat Mike Tyson" followed a similar formula that their previous hits had (Girls Ain't Nothing But Trouble, Parents Just Don't Understand, Nightmare On My Street). So it was wise 2 hit us with something that worked perfectly before. At the same time, maybe it was time 2 expose people 2 something a bit different...especially since He's The DJ, I'm The Rapper was a HUGE album. Also, with hardcore Hip-Hop and political Hip-Hop causing a buzz, they probably should have come with something different 2 show their evolution. And In This Corner... was a new sound with new energy and some experimentation. But those who stopped listening 2 JJ+FP after "...Mike Tyson" never knew about the albums other layers. FP at least in the interview that there was something different on the album, not just "...Mike Tyson." This was that limbo time right after Hip-Hop's golden age and right before it peaked during the 90's. At the same time, Gangsta Rap waz having it's seeds planted thru' N.W.A.'s Hardcore Hip-Hop sound and political Hip-Hop was blowing up becuz of Public Enemy. All the emcees who kept things basic or went the party route started getting a bad name simply becuz M.C. Hammer was blowing up out of this world. Once u get big, people come at u. Since Hammer, JJ+FP, Young MC, etc weren't gonna cuss their way thru' a fight, they just had 2 deal with it. Fast forward 2 now....gosh, it's depressing.

THANK U!! Ahhh...back when Hip-Hop had a heartbeat.

I love this song. It's so much better than that other one someone posted a bit back. The beat is dope and Q-Tip is lyrically doin' his thing. I love the throwback feel 2 it also. It just has alot of heart 2 me. I'm gonna be honest, i don't remember a single Hip-Hop or Rap video from this year cuz i don't watch the crap on TV. This one has a feel good vibe. Silver Tiger, there is such a thing as overdoing the smart comments. Had the video looked really cheap, the sarcasm just may have been appropriate. Thanx 4 posting!

That's one of the only good doctored 2Pac songs released in the last 6 years or so. JOE - Good Girls Greatest Hits (2008) Man, this is taking me back!!

HaPPy B-DaY!!

Ahhh...thanx. Yeah, there some stuff there i'd love 2 get. I'm not a fan of buying cloths online...with shipping on top of already usually high prices. But we'll see. I've always wanted 2 find a shop like this tho.'

OH! Sorry, i guess i didn't read in2 that part. Yeah, some people here are gonna be interested in that!!

Funny stuff.

Maybe i'm looking at the wrong thing, but i don't see ANY Hip-Hop stuff on there. And i'm not a fan of the style of clothing that i did see on there.

Ha...this isn't new. It's 10 years old. :wiggle:

Yeah, but doing a movie for an Oscar is like making music for the money. Both ideas are wack. Do it for the art, do it for the love, do it for the people. I don't doubt the movie could be good. I'm just dying for some Fresh Prince right now. If he's not gonna be doing music right now, i want a movie that is gonna be him doing his thing. Hitch was like a grown up Fresh Prince. I Am Legend and Hancock was him doing roles (my 2 least favorite movies by him), Seven Pounds looks amazing 2 me...that will hold me over. But if he's gonna focus on movies, give me some Hip-Hop sprinkled comedy with lots of Fresh Princeisms.

...DON'T DOWNLOAD, GO OUT AND BUY THE RECORD

This is better than that last song he put out. I don't like it at all those. The beat is boring, his flow is uninspired. With all of Kanye's other albums, i didn't think i would get them, but then i did, then i stopped listening 2 them a week later (even tho' i liked them)...i highly doubt i'll be getting this one. He knows what good beats are. Why this crap? And it seems like his flow and delivery get worse with each album.

I agree. Playing real people regularly in movies is kinda weird. Especially after u did Ali...everything else just seems a step down.

...sounds facinatingly awful.

I haven't heard this. I assume they are just sampling "Forget Me Nots"...just like "Men In Black" did.

Point given. I do remember liking one song he did a few years ago. I think it was called "Sugar" or something. I just remember liking the groove to it. I remember hearing about his charity work and i give him props for that.

Wow...this sucks!! The beat is trash. David Banner is awful as usual. The attempt of a chorus is awful. I like Busta's flow...which just made me miss his music. And Talib is one of my the favs in recent years but i don't see his or Busta's verse very impressive. Thanx for sharing...but i really dislike this. It seems like this song should be lyrically strong and profound but it's not.

Same here! I love this song. Her other new joint is that crappy commercial R-N-B stuff we've hear here for before. But i LOOOOOOOVE this one.

Cuz of random replies like this...ha ha.

DRAZTIC - The Way I Feel The Image of Pain (2008) I'm lovin' this album!! Reminds of how most Hip-Hop would be if the music didn't get derailed in the mid/late 90's.

I know...ha ha....what idiot actually thinks this. BWS.com, your friends are fools...run and tell them that.
