  1. Nas' "One Mic" is an incredible song. One of my favorite songs by him and even off the 2000's. I think what sets "Tell Me Why" apart from it is FP's storytelling approach. Nas comes off kinda political, which isn't a bad thing, but FP is coming from his heart. Jadakiss' "Why" is a joke. No offense 2 anyone who likes him or his song, but that song falls flat on his face. Jadakiss has never spit anything deep and even when he tries, it just isn't believable. It waz totally a PR move 2 get sales...or considered part of community service.
  2. FP has said in an interview or 2 that "Tell Me Why" is gonna be the next single. I personally think he should drop something like "Party Starter" for the summertime. Then drop "Tell Me Why" in September. However, there is that really old news that there is a video for a remix of "Switch," and the Reggae Remix promo CD for it waz recently released....who' knows. I think the remix is release is a good idea. I think FP's main logic with releasing "Tell Me Why" next is that it is one of the best songs he's ever done. It would be hard 4 anyone 2 not like this song. I think he knows that he only has so many chances 2 get a hit on his hand and maybe he dosen't wanna waist any time. We gotta remember that Black Eyed Peas "Where Is The Love" turned in2 a huge hit and it waz the 1st release off Elephunk and it waz released in the summertime. We'll see how this all plays out.
  3. Actually, DJ Jazzy Jeff produced "Here He Comes." He scratches on "Pump Ya Breaks" (the track with Snoop) and "If U Can't Dance (Slide)."
  4. I think i may be the only one who really likes LFO, but outside of Hip-Hop and R-N-B, they are my favorite group. The way they merged Hip-Hop, R-N-B, Pop, and Rock waz just genious 2 me. Their different styles all mixed up in2 1 group, and most importantly, the lyrics 2 their songs just speak 2 me. Anyways, Rich recently found out that he has a rare form of cancer that forms in bone marrow. He's in good spirits, but with any situation like this, thoughts and prayers are needed. As a huge fan of his, i just wanted 2 post this 4 those who have faith. I've talked 2 him before on the internet and really support him. Just wanted 2 share. Here's the MTV article... http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1500203/2...?headlines=true The news is also mentioned on his official site... http://www.RichCronin.com
  5. I think that the 2nd part is probably from another unreleased track. He's just got the flow way 2 under control. After all, if i wouldn't have posted about "Chosen One" a week ago, everyone would say the whole thing waz a freestyle. Anyways, "freestyle" has multiple definitions. The general meaning of freestyle is someone rappin' off the top of their head. However, rapping anything pre-written over another beat (like FP has done with "Here He Comes" and "Chosen One") can also be considered a freestyle.
  6. Yeah, i gotta admit, that waz a really stupid ?uestion since this board is a part of a website with all that info. U can find it on the JJ+FP album Homebase, Greatest Hits, and on FP's Greatest Hits album.
  7. I guess this makes the official Unofficial site. :clap3:
  8. :tear: I've been dying 2 hear this since last nite...and of course my computer isn't downlaoding MP3s correctly!! :tear: By the way, dose someone have the ENTIRE interview FP did with him in Feb in MP3 format?
  9. Before i check this out...would this be the Miami Mix feat. Miami Sound Machine or one of the Jason Nevins remixes?
  10. I think males in general use the term. It's not a black/white thing. No offense, but stupid ?uestion.
  11. U obviously haven't been around in awhile. JJ+FP is all over the place. And funniest thing, L+F isn't a JJ+FP album at all. Jeff's barely on it. But they are doing shows and TV spots left and right. If L+F dose well, i think a full JJ+FP reunion could be possible.
  12. I used 2 hate NSYNC with a passion, but now that the whole boyband/pop music explosion is over, all the stuff from that era doesn't bug me so much. Justin's music isn't my favorite, but i actually like alot of. I wouldn't mind if they worked 2gether, but i don't really want them 2. If he's gonna collaborate with someone, there's 100 other people i'd put in front of Justin Timberlake.
  13. Yeah, the Rodney Jerkins Remix of "Just The Two of Us" is a great remix. The production is great and Brian McKnight takes the song 2 a whole new level. The remix waz done in 1998, it's on the US version of the single. It popped up later on other singles overseas.
  14. I can't even try 2 answer this. I can give u a list of 30 albums that believe deserve the title tho.'
  15. Yeah, very old news. The original version of this news waz from 1998. De La Soul did 2 a track with DJ Jazzy Jeff tho.' It's on King Britt's album Sylk 130.
  16. I think the reason he's using commercial rap artists beats in performances is 2 show that he can hang with the guys who are on the charts. He's just showing that his ear has been tuned 2 what's hot and that he can do the same they are doing...HIS WAY. It's a way 2 drag in people who normally wouldn't pay attention 2 his stuff 2. If someone is a 50 Cent fan and dosen't really listen 2 FP, they might hear him rocking over 50's beat and that'll spark an interest in them. That's just my guess.
  17. I think this post is the perfect example of how JJ+FP reaches out 2 people of all walks of life. All ages, backgrounds, races, etc. And the cool thing is, 4 the most part, we all just vibe with each other. I've known Wes 4 a long time and i never felt that there waz a real age gap between us...of course he's quick 2 point that out in this post. :cwm:
  18. Yeah, there is the TLAC Remix, which is a reworked version of the original (pretty similar 2 the original version), and the Candyhill Remix, which is totally remixed. There's also an extended version of this remix.
  19. People brought this up a few weeks ago. I saw a commerical for that album...that's 1 more time than i saw the 1 for FP's Lost + Found. There's no way any lawsuit could come out of this tho.'
  20. That's really weird that Run would do a rock influenced album. He's the one who listens 2 Hip-Hop and dosen't even listen 2 the guest artists on Crown Royal. DMC's solo album waz called Thugs, Checks, + Rock + Roll....with the Hip-Hop/R-N-B/Soul/Rock/Folk mix. The reason DMC wazn't on Crown Royal much waz becuz he lost some of his voice. He can't rock the mic as aggressivly as he used 2. The fellas were just on 2 different pages. The next Run-DMC album waz supposed 2 be mostly straight Hip-Hop and the guys were gonna merge their styles so DMC could participate equally. The next Run-DMC album waz gonna be huge, it's a shame things happened the way they did. R.I.P. JMJ
  21. "Tell Me Why" is supposed 2 be the next single. I think it would do better as a single if it were released in the fall. If "Switch" starts droppin," i think an upbeat track would work best, then drop "Tell Me Why" in September. As least release a promo 2 radio, like "Party Starter" or "I Wish I Made That." The Reggae Remix of "Switch" should be getting radio play soon if radio stations support it.
  22. GWEN STEFANI - Holla Back Girl She's looking absolutely delicious in the new video.
  23. I'm thinkin' the same way, but as a civil rights icon, i would be kinda mad if a song waz named after me and the group never even contacted me 2 see if it waz cool with me.
