I gotta give props 2 R. Kelly and Montell Jordan. Since they come from a strong Hip-Hop background, they have alot of storytelling style 2 their songs which is obviously inspired by people like Slick Rick, Fresh Prince, and Dana Dane.

I still wouldn't call it a MASSIVE HIT. My one friend didn't hear the song until a week ago. And he's a JJ+FP fan so he has kept his ear open 4 it.

"Party Starter" isn't what i would consider the best song on that list...but i think it's the smartest single, providing it waz released soon. I still think "Tell Me Why" should be a 3rd single. The 3rd single is always the one that 2nd most important. Cuz that makes or breaks an album as a 1 or 2 hit single, 6-month success or a year long, 3 or 4 single album. I couldn't find the poll on WS.com, where is it at?

Yeah, but who cares about career. 2Pac had things 2 say that this generation needs 2 hear (cuz pretty much nobody else is saying anything relevant). All this generation gets 2 hear is his thugged out filler trax he did just 2 get off Deathrow).

ALVIN + THE CHIPMUNKS - Leader of The Pack No, i'm not joking. :hilarious: I love Alvin + The Chipmunks!!

Yeah, i heard the 1st one on AOL a few weeks ago. I like the song alot. R. Kelly has always had that ghetto soap opera thing going on. He did that song with Sparkle in the summer of 1998...i 4get the title tho.' Then that fall he had the video for "When A Woman's Fed Up." R. Kelly just released the CD single for "In The Kitchen." It's a sexy, slow jam with an edge. The single also has a remix done the same way the "Ignition" remix waz done. "In The Closet" is also on the single. His new album is slated for late June.

Yeah! This is great news. I'm actually gonna call "Switch" a hit now. I see it on BET, MTV, + VH-1 kinda often now. When i waz getting my haircut the other day, it came on, when i waz in my friend's car, it came on, when i waz hanging out the other nite, a car drove by playing it and a group of people next 2 my group of friends started rapping along with it. It's kinda strange the way that i keep coming across it this past week.

Why do so many of u put up those pix were we can't really see what u look like? Half of u have bad lighting or you are looking away from the camera. :hilarious: The post is titled "Faces Behind The Posts"....if your picture has no face, it dosen't make any sense.

I doubt they are using JJ+FP take on it. The original song that they sampled has been covered 100 times.

Simplistic but good. :thumb:

"The Message" is classic. I don't know if i'd call it number one...but it's in the top 20. Eminem's "Stan" is a drop track...but i wouldn't put it in the top 100. I think Wu-Tang's "C.R.E.A.M." is at a good spot...but only if better trax were in front of it.

I don't like online swapping. There's not excuse 4 not having the album music...so that shouldn't be online. And the rare stuff is 4 the fans, not just 4 anyone.

FRESH PRINCE - Swtich (playing on MTV) About Q-Tip, he waz gonna release a jazz/singing album back in 2001 or so but the label scrapped it and never put it out. Then they announced that ATCQ waz gonna reunite. Hopefully the reunion is coming from the guys actually wanting 2 do it and not just cuz their solo projects dried up.

I read this on AOL this morning. Strange newz. It isn't a publicity stunt...or the network wouldn't be "optimistic" about if the new season is gonna happen.

Hammer waz selling records out of the back of his trunk...and he is on of my favorite emcees. But Boyz II Men...they aren't Hip-Hop...and they were signed 2 Motown!!

It makes u wonder who dose these lists. If i make an opinion about something that i'm not totally a part of, i either shut up or state that my opinon saying that "this is what i'm going by..." Anyone who is gonna keep Big Daddy Kane out of the top 10 obviously dosen't know what they are talking about.

2 me, u can't really make a list of the best trax. But can say "These songs are amoungst the best"...and "These aren't the best...but they are right behind trax like "Fight The Power" and "Microphone Fiend." There's just 2 many styles and time-release-gaps 2 compare them all. How u gonna say "Rapper's Delight" is comparable 2 "Gettin' Jiggy Wit It"...u can't really compare a song from 1979 2 a song from 1997.

There is some good trax on that list...and some bad. Either way, the order is rediculous.

GWEN STAFANI - Holla Back Girl When i 1st got her album (which i never listen 2), i really didn't like this song. However, the video is great...and i now love it. The video did the job it waz supposed 2 do...make the song better. :kekeke: The fact that she looks absolultly gorgous dosen't hurt either. When u play the record backwards u can here her saying "AJ, we were meant 2 be."

H a P p Y b - D a Y ! ! !

I don't think Gold is a real acheivement. That just sounds like justifying things so that sales can suck. How many times do u hear someone announcing when an album goes gold.

SNAP - The Power

In these days, when albums can go platnium in 2 or 3 days, i'm really disappointed that Rock The House and And In This Corner... have still sold more copies than Lost + Found. After all, in those days, it waz amazing when a Hip-Hop album sold Gold.

Wow! Jay-Z is still leading. I just think that is a disgrace. :nono:
