I didn't care 2 have Kanye on FP's album...but i wouldn't mind hearing FP on Kanye's album. I like the fact that he gave FP props with that comment but that still dosen't make him an impressive artist. I love most of his production, but as an emcee, he's nothing special..tho' better than the other commercially successful rappers. I have 2 change the radio station every time "Diamonds" comes on the radio. That song is so boring i might fall asleep behind the wheel. Hopefully it's a poor repersentation of the album.
I'm aware i missed quite a few people. I like alot of others that u have mentioned. A few of them made me cringe tho' when i saw them mentioned in a post that's supposed 2 be about real Hip-Hop...not just Rap.
Sometimes i watch that show when it's on late at nite. That kid reminds me alot of myself in high skool....except i waz funnier, more talented, skinny, and not nearly as annoying..ha ha. His humor is just bizarre...and sometimes it's right up my ally.
There are all different kinds of Hip-Hop. But originality, being yourself, and sharing your life with others thru' music is what makes real Hip-Hop 2 me.

The remixes is are great 2. I remember freakin' out when i saw JJ+FP "Greatest Hits" in stores....cuz i had no idea they even had one in the works. When i saw that "Lovely Daze" waz on it, along with the Megamix, i lost my mind. Nothing like hearing a new JJ+FP song outta no where.
Everyone is dissing 50 Cent...so all this is irrelavant 2 me. However, i definitly will check it out. I don't see this boosting 50's record sales at all...only Nas.'
No, u're not understanding me. It's stupid 2 not allow anyone 2 get close 2 u. I'm just saying that u need 2 learn who 2 let close 2 u and who not 2. If there is a reason 2 believe someone might not be there when u need them, then stay cool with them, just don't let them get 2 close. I have lots of friends who are very close 2 me. Infact, i don't know what i'd do without them. It's been a very painful year 4 me. If it wazn't for a few of my close friends, i don't know where i'd be right now.
I just finished up a 12 hour cleaning spree. In the last 12 hours, i listened 2 nothing but reggae and dancehall. Shaggy, Diana King, Sean Paul, Shabba Ranks, Kevin Lyttle, Snow, Born Jamaricans.
