"This Boy Is Smooth" Appreciation Thread
JumpinJack AJ replied to Hero1's topic in Jazzy Jeff & Fresh Prince
"This Boy Is Smooth" always stood out 2 me since the 1st time i heard it. The production is amazing. FP's lyrics are smooth with a dash of suddle comedy. Just a great song. -

Very cool...this happened just after all of us started voting like crazy. We gotta keep this up and try even harder!! -
I'm gonna make a point 2 vote every time i hit up the board 2 vote. Once we get it on the countdown, other people who watch the show will start helping us out.

LL has said that 14 Shots To The Dome waz he most unfocused album. His career waz just kinda exhausted at that point. Going away then coming back. I love 14 Shots To The Dome. He said that it waz his weakest album, but that it did have it's strong moments. I remember he mentioned "Pink Cookies..." (one of my fav LL joints) and i think "Diggy Down." At the same time, FP said Code Red didn't work becuz he waz lacking confiedence. He calls "Boom! Shake The Room" the weakest songs he's ever recorded. It just seems like alot of true skool emcees look back at that 'just after early 90's' era in a bad way. Commercially, people who listened 2 Hip-Hop now listened 2 gangsta rap. Old skool legends releaxed a lil' bit and focused more on their street edge (JJ+FP, LL, Queen Latifah, Run-DMC, UMC's)...all resulting in good music, but staggering sales (except 4 Latifah). I don't know, i think that dark era brought out alot of good music, but the artists who made it don't seem 2 feel that way.

YEAH!! HA HA!!!

Ha...i love "Nasty Girl"...it's just a fun track. All of my friends have been feelin' this song since October...maybe it's a Maryland thing. "Nasty Girl" dosen't really display his mic skillz...but i think the song is infectious. Dose anyone here remember the days when Hip-Hop waz fun? Well, this is a modern taste of it.

I have a really good feeling about this one.

They put bonus trax on imports 2 help market albums. Some countries can find the US versions of albums for cheaper in their music stores. So the record companies will tack on bonus trax 2 influence the music fans 2 pay a lil' extra 4 their versions of the album. One thing i have noticed when getting import albums with bonus trax, is that it sometimes ruins the flow and overall impact of the album. Sometimes it's actually an "artistic" move 2 put certain trax on an album and leave off others...simply cuz they don't flow right all the time. Of couse i'd much rather have bonus trax than worry about the overall flow of the album...at least most of the time.

Nobody dose. They didn't release it...the version of that remix that waz released took FP's verse off. I think the remix would have done well if it waz released 2 radio. It probably would have helped push Born To Reign since Columbia wazn't trying 2.

As an actor, FP has proven himself...so LL didn't have a chance in that category. When it comes 2 the mic, i don't really think one of them is better than the other. They have their own styles and i think they are equally as good. But FP is my fav...so i'll just say him.

Quotes from This Morning!
JumpinJack AJ replied to FreshPrincess's topic in Jazzy Jeff & Fresh Prince
He's always said that "Summertime" waz his best record and that "Just The Two of Us" waz lyrically his 2nd best. I'm pretty confident that he's being 4 real when he said that his waz his number 2 or tied for number 1 record. -
I'd like 2 see them sell official Fresh Prince hoodies...but i don't really like the one he's wearing in that pick. Something about the pic dose have a 90's feel 2 it. This is my least fav from Lost + Found pix we've seen so far.

Accuser Told School Dean He Was Not Abused By LINDA DEUTSCH, AP PHOTO CAPTION: The accuser in Michael Jackson's case displayed a quick, sarcastic sense of humor and a stubborn refusal to let lawyers from either side challenge him. SANTA MARIA, Calif. (March 14) - The teenage boy who says Michael Jackson molested him acknowledged under cross-examination Monday that he told an administrator at his school the pop star ''didn't do anything to me,'' and that Jackson was like a father to him. Striking at the heart of the prosecution's allegations of child molestation and conspiracy, defense attorney Thomas Mesereau Jr. confronted the now-15-year-old boy with a video tribute by the boy and his family in which they credited Jackson with changing their lives and helping to cure the boy of cancer. The video had already been shown in the trial twice. This time, Mesereau stopped it repeatedly to ask if the boy and his family were lying. In most instances, the boy said they were speaking the truth. ''Michael was nice to me,'' he testified. ''I felt like he was a father to me.'' Prosecutors allege Jackson's associates had the boy's family make the video after the broadcast of an infamous documentary in which Jackson said he allowed the boy to sleep in his bed while he slept on the floor. The prosecution claims the rebuttal video was staged and scripted. Mesereau asked if the family turned on Jackson and invented the molestation story because they were being evicted from his Neverland ranch. ''We realized he wasn't as nice a guy as we thought he was,'' the boy said. Earlier, the teenager was asked about conversations he had with Jeffrey Alpert, the dean at John Burroughs Middle School in Los Angeles, where the boy had a history of acting up in class. ''I told Dean Alpert he didn't do anything to me,'' the boy said. ''I told him twice.'' Prosecutors allege Jackson, 46, plied the boy with alcohol and molested him at his Neverland Ranch in 2003. The pop star, who was threatened with arrest when he failed to show up in court on time Thursday, arrived on schedule Monday. Unlike last time, when a disheveled Jackson finally arrived in a coat, T-shirt and pajama bottoms, he wore a smart red jacket with a black armband and black slacks. His parents escorted him inside. Mesereau, during his cross-examination, quoted Alpert as telling the youngster: ''Look at me, look at me. ... I can't help you unless you tell me the truth - did any of this happen?'' When asked when the conversation occurred, the boy said: ''I believe it was after I came back from Neverland.'' It was not clear in court why the dean asked the boy about Jackson. However, when the television documentary aired in 2003, the boy was shown in it. Also during cross-examination, the boy denied instances of being caught drinking wine at Neverland, reading ''girlie magazines'' and masturbating in a guest house while Jackson wasn't around. He also denied he ever spoke to Jay Leno, but said he once placed a call to the comedian from a hospital and left a message on an answering machine. The defense, which claims the family sought to get money from celebrities, has said Leno alerted police after a call from the boy because he thought the family was looking for a ''mark.'' Mesereau also cross-examined the accuser about similarities between a statement he testified Jackson made about masturbation and an earlier statement the boy attributed to his grandmother. On Thursday, the boy testified Jackson had told him if men do not masturbate, they might rape women. Mesereau noted the boy told sheriff's investigators in an interview his grandmother had told him the same thing. ''Why did your story change between that interview and your testimony last Thursday?'' Mesereau asked. The boy denied changing his story. He said both his grandmother and Jackson had told him the same thing, but the context was different. ''She was telling me it was OK to do it, and Michael was saying you have to do it,'' the boy said. At he left court Monday, Jackson told reporters: ''Mesereau did a great job.'' Associated Press Writers Tim Molloy in Santa Maria and Gillian Flaccus in Los Angeles contributed to this report. AP-NY-03-14-05 20:49 EST

Thanx 4 giving it an honest listen. 4 a second, i waz feeling like lambert and his love 4 50 Cent. :hilarious: I hate listening 2 music on the internet, it totally takes away from the music. Since u thought it waz alright, check the CD out in FYE or a place that lets u listen 2 music in the store. I just think a few people here would like this cat. I've been listening 2 it all day and i just like the feel-good vibe he sets off.

Whatever happened 2 just being careful. It's not that hard 2 hold a CD by the edges. I hardly take any of my CDs out of my room...espeically the JJ+FP stuff. I make burned copies of their albums 4 my car (and toss on some remixes from that album at the end).

MELLO-D + THE RADEOS - Cool Wit'chu I'm not totally sure if i got the name and title right, but i just heard this song on RapCity. This track is ILL!! The best true-skool Hip-Hop i've heard in awhile. Reminds me of early 90's/mid-90's Hip-Hop.

maybe new info on Eminem track?
JumpinJack AJ replied to *mimi*'s topic in Jazzy Jeff & Fresh Prince
This is just more tabloid mess 2 me. That site/article has no real credibility. FP simply isn't gonna sell out his style 4 one song. And when did "Mr. Nice Guy" turn in 2 the "Eminem track." I won't believe any of this til i see it with my own ears. (and yes, i typed it that way 2 amuse myself) :cwm: -
I'm thinkin' that my favorite trax on the album will be ones that we havn't heard so far. Party Starter and Pump Ya Breaks are good and all, but i'm thinkin' FP has something better up his sleeve...and i'll answer this after i hear the album.

I'm not gonna chose actual verses...but here's a list of songs that have my favorite lyrics... Summertime The Rain Potnas Mama Says Block Party Ain't No Place Like Home Twinkle Twinkle (I'm Not A Star) Holla Back Shadow Dreams
