There waz a song by him/them that i liked that's somewhere about a year old. At least that's when it waz on the radio alot. It waz called something like "It's Been Awhile." I know the lead singer says it alot in the song. I think my brother has his/their CD.

This newz isn't anything new. If u look at the credits of Born To Reign, u can see what songs they co-wrote. If FP writes with another artist, they credit 4 their work...it's not like they are paid under the table 2 write full songs 4 him or anything. Sometimes writing in groups can be fun an inspirational (i used 2 do it when i waz younger)....but sometimes it's just lazy.

I love Nick Cannon's music. He's helped fill a big gap this year that usually remains empty. He came out with an album that didn't have cussing, it experimented with different styles of Hip-Hop, and it actually had lyrics 2 the songs that stayed on topic. Props 2 Nick Cannon on the music tip!!

What's the wrong with the word "i-d-i-o-t" anyway?!?

Yeah, the song is great. Didn't know there waz a video tho'.

Why waz my post edited?!?! :dunno: The day i use the word "knobjockey" is the day i wish 2 be hit by a car.

What an knobjockey!! I thought they were after him 4 makin some of the wackest music ever.

Kel Spencer could be one of the hottest things out. My best way 2 discribe him would be 2 throw Fresh Prince and Rakim in2 a blender, a dash of KRS-One, and a pintch of non-Deathrow 2Pac.

Hey, don't stress out about college. Just be sure 2 stay focused on your classes. When u miss 1 class, it makes it really easy 2 miss others. Also, take it from me, when u start slacking in classes, u can start hating it and losing 100s of dollars. Just be yourself and don't allow the people around u 2 change u in negative ways. I have a friend who went thru' a phase where all her "new college friends" kinda changed her, she ended up acting really phony and screwing alot of her life up. She ended up coming home 4 a summer 2 be surrounded with her real friends (who actually care about her). Since then she's got everything back on track and she happy again. That's the only advice i can give...stay focused, stay postive, and be yourself.

I think the beat is pretty decent...but he's a sad excuse 4 a rapper. Originality is the 1st and only rule in Hip-Hop, which is why almost no Rap on the charts is Hip-Hop...cuz it's incredibly un-original. This guy goes out of his way 2 sound just like Biggie. I wazn't a Biggie fan, but i gotta give him props on the way his flow waz so rhythmic. Not many rappers concentrate on that aspect of their flow anymore...so it stands out really bad when someone copies that, and also looks and sounds exactly like 'em.

[quote=WildWildWillennium,Sep 16 2004, 09:06 PM]...got me interested in the producer side of Nick Cannon. [/quote] Yeah, i support his music and his acting but i didn't know he waz getting deep in 2 producing. This is the start and this a good way 2 start. The beat isn't bad at all. Great choice of a chorus-sample 2.

Oh yeah...how could i 4get that. :roll:

Nice site...however, that big pic of FP kinda looks like he really needs 2 go 2 the bathroom and as he waz approaching it, someone put and "Out of Order" sign on the door.

Brian McKnight "Thinkin' 'Bout Me"

During interviews that he did during the release of Willennium, he said he'd only collaborate with artists who were intellegent enuff 2 participate on his album without cussing. FP has high standards 4 his music. A few of his collaborations have artists that simply aren't on his level, he's not gonna let them trash his album up 2 bad.

I'm not dissing Nelly cuz of this line, i diss him cuz his music is garbage. However, this line is just ignorant. How is he gonna associate himself with a verteran in Hip-Hop who has stayed busy 4 years by being a positive person?

Thanx 4 this feel-good newz. U know how Will says music, movies, and entertainment are a stepping stool 4 his greater calling in life? This is what he means. Don't get me wrong, i live 4 his music, but using his talent, skillz, and power as an entertainter 2 step beyond entertainment 2 help make a differerence in peoples lives...that's what it's all about. That what he means when he say "Born To Reign."

I waz watching 106 + Park and Lil' Romeo's new video hit number 9. Nick Cannon produced the beat. At 1st i thought it waz really light weight, but by the middle of the song i loved the beat. He then speeds up and samples the hook from Shai's early 90's R-N-B classic "If I Ever Fall In Love." I'm a big Shai fan myself and wazn't offeneded at all that he used it cuz it comes across real nice. Nick in the background and lip syncing the chorus. :roll: Tatyana Ali also has a cameo in it...looking as good as ever. I didn't really pay attention 2 Lil' Romeo...but check the song.

Well, if u read the 1st post, u'll see that A Touch of Jazz produced most of the album...and this is the DJ Jazzy Jeff forum. Boyz II Men are also cool with FP and have given him props in CD inserts b4. We also can't forget their appearance on a Christmas episode of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. Boyz II Men and JJ+FP are kinda tight knit.

I don't think Nelly is trying 2 diss Will, but he shouldn't step on his name like that. Fresh Prince = Born To Reign Nelly = Born To Shame

Very cool!! Some of u should try 2 make it. Let us know how it goes.

They never air this episode cuz it's not really an episode. I think it waz put 2gether 2 celebrate the 100th episode. I have it on tape somewhere. And yeah, they premiered "Boom! Shake The Room" on the show.

What are u talking about?!? The guys write most of their material (and 4 other artists), they produce and they've got some of the best voices in R-N-B. R-N-B groups almost never harmonize anymore. These guys are one of the only groups who keep the roots of R-N-B music true 2 what they should be.

Nelly is so stupid. FP should indirectly poke fun at him on his new album 4 that line.

CDs and DVDs almost never come out on non-Tuesdays. I highly doubt FP would screw up stores and shipping 2 get the single out on a certain day. If there is any truth 2 this, it's probably just the day he'd release the video. Keep in mind we can't expect 2 much without proper backing from a bigger label.
