There's a b-side on an import of her "Daydreamin'" single that's really good. Just 2 months ago i found an import of her "Everytime" single which has some remixes of the song i never heard. I love her music...really wanting something more from her at the moment.

Now that u mention it, i did like "Wanksta." Of course that waz b4 we all knew 50's personality, that he has no diveristy in his music, and that he himself is a wanksta. I only knew of him from a few 90's mixtapes i had back in the day. Oh yeah, on an unreleated note. U know how he always talks about being shot 5 times or whatever? Someone unearthed his hospital records and they state that he waz only shot 2 times. Anyways, i also kinda liked "21 Questions"...but mostly for the beat. I never understood why "In Da Club" waz big. Other than the average beat, i thought it sucked.

GEORGE MICHAEL + MARY J. BLIGE - As For Living, For Loving (2006)

Albums like his are the kinda that steadily sell for a year or 2. Not thousands at 1st and then no more after the 1st month or 2. Since it's not a big mainstream release, people will find out about the album months later and pick it up when they find out about it. Lots of people who see Jazzy's shows will probably pick it up after the set. I don't think it's fair 2 hold it 2 the standards of L+F cuz they are 2 totally different kind of releases.

Jay Dee - Intro Rough Draft (2002/2007)

At the moment, there is nothing i like on the radio that i don't like regularly. In recent years, i've just been feeling stuff by Black Eyed Peas, Fergie, Pink, Gwen Stefani, Nelly Furtado, Justin Timberlake, Ne-Yo, Fort Minor, R. Kelly, Timbaland, Omarion, Marques Houston, Snoop Dogg, Akon...and some other stuff like John Mayer, Nickleback, Hinder, and Daughtry. All those artists i like and have no shame in it. Thinking back to 2003, there was a single or 2 by people like Young Gunz and Cassidy that i liked...but that's about it. I can't say there's really any crappy commercial stuff that i shamelessly like.

Yeah, definitely a rough week. Keep ya head up. Better days are on the way. I know how rough those things can be...especially back 2 back.

It's not even really an R-N-B album tho.' Kels said himself said he was inspired by the stuff on the radio (HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA) and wanted 2 do something 2 compete with it. Which lead to a crappy handful of pointless songs. He says the album is "about 70% Hip-Hop and 30% R-N-B." In my opinion, it also only happens 2 be 30% good. The rest is average to bad. R-N-B fans have other albums 2 chose from if they want real R-N-B albums. This is his weakest album.

The album hasn't been out long...there's plenty of time for it 2 do more...or not do more. Just depends on what Jeff wants 2 do with it. I waz in a record store 2nite and did my part by making sure TROTM and L+F were in front of the CD's on the shelf...ha ha.

I had no idea ANYbody didn't know "potnas" was just the word "partners" prononced incorrectly. This is actually pretty amusing.

Did u guys see the video they set up for Jaden winning an MTV Movie Award. IT WAS HILARIOUS. It had Jaden sitting in a chair with the award why Jada was talking 2 him and FP was talking as he set up the camera. Then Jada gets behind the camera and FP hangs out off 2 the side making a way 2 big deal if he is in the frame...haha. They then feed Jaden his speech in a very ghetto way...so bad u could never edit the film to make it look or sound natural...which soon turns in2 a slightly rehearsed disfunctional Smith-famly fight...ha ha. I know someone will get a video of this very soon and post it here. It's hilarious, me and my friend were laughing so hard. FP looked smooth with a red shirt and hat...looking like he just stepped outta the booth recording L+F: Part 2.

Yeah, i waz just gonna say, if there is any truth to him recording a song called "Pocket Full of Money"...it doesn't mean it has to be a bad thing. We are just so used 2 the pointless materialistic themes in commercial rap that we'd automatically think it's about being rich and blowing money on stupid things. There's actually alot of things a song titled that could be about.

It's all seems pretty weird. If there is any truth 2 it, i'm sure we'll hear more.

Seems unlikely...but who knows. I'd love 2 see JJ+FP doing something live...even if i couldn't go see it.

Yeah, and it's even safe 2 assume that a new JJ+FP album would be dope. Dre, considering the people he works with....not so much.

TEDDY GEIGER - Seven Days Without You Underage Thinking (2006)

I STILL haven't got The Dana Owens album. I feel like a sell out fan. I almost got it a few times but always put it back on the shelf....then went home and listened 2 the good songs on the last Flava Unit album.

...or what music is.

well, idealy, all the people who visit this message board and Jeff's site should have already gotten it....so who's sleeping. And i agree that the internet has hurt the sales....it's done nothing but hurt everyone's sales. "Internet promotion" only seems 2 go so far. How many hit albums and songs have truely stemmed from internet promotion only?

When u are so fake in your music, u surprise people. I didn't watch the video cuz my computer would blow up. But i can imagin 50 Cent giving them props which would make me think "why is your music so bad and so stupid ...yet u give props 2 intellegent legends who were actually real in their music." I can imagin KRS-One being a team player like FP, who shows him respect even tho' crappy artists like him are torn apart in his music.

Praise God! New Latifah!! Life is good!! The show sounds interesting 2. Thanx 4 posting this!!!!!!!!

The only real promotion is done by Jeff himself by his touring and his interviews with usually small magazines. They sent out a promo for "Jeff N Fess" with "My Soul's Not For Sale" as the b-side (which i've heard on the radio kinda often on mature R-N-B/Classic R-N-B/Neo-Soul radio stations). There is no music video, posters, commercial or mainstream radio airplay. I can't say i expected it 2 be huge at this time. I think word of mouth and continued online support will keep it moderatly going. I'd love 2 see them do a music video tho'...INTENDED for the mainstream audience. It's all about the music tho'...Jazzy isn't trying 2 be Puffy. Let's embrace the album and let those who care know how good it is. It's kinda like L+F. It's promoting great music, pleasing alot of music fans, and building a reputation 4 Jeff. But hopefully it'll set up a bigger album with bigger success.

As i waz reading the article...all i waz thinking waz "AMEN." Those who grew up on "real Hip-Hop" will totally love this article just as much as i did.

I must say, while the theme 2 the song is universal...i usually only listen 2 it in the winter time. So i haven't listened 2 it in a hot minute. But i love the theme. I love the mature and honest theme. Most rappers think they are 2 hard 2 show any true emotion...which is just idiocy. The solid production, which at the time, waz far from a sound any emcee would try 2 flow over, is equally as impressive. Dope song, hands down.

I don't know. I've always thought it waz kinda weird 2 use the internet as means 2 meet new people. I suppose it works for some people tho.'
