  1. Yeah, they some real gangstas. Ignorant people with recod deals is more like it.
  2. Ha ha...this board is supposed 2 be devoted 2 the site, message boards, and stret teaming JJ+FP project...but oh well. I wazn't a big fan of Biggie's. When he waz riding with Pac, he had a rougher flow with a dash of 2Pac's thug life flava. Puffy made him mainstream, made him more laidback, and all about the jiggy lifestyle (which is why i found it hard 2 take alot of his music serious). When B.I.G. waz large, i wazn't a fan of his at all, in fact, i couldn't stand him. But as i look back and listen 2 the old music (and see the current trash on the airwaves), i definitly like some of his stuff more these days.
  3. The 1st episode has ALWAYS had the full music video for "Yo! Home To Bel-Air" in front of it. But that's still very cool.
  4. I waz never a big fan of theirs but they definitly have some good trax. I didn't like the mid-90's stuff where they got deep in a alternative and rock music...BUT I LOVE THEIR NEW SONG. Their music isn't 4 everyone. Like Macy Gray...some people say she's dope and some people say she dosen't deserve a record deal. Not everybody is gonna like ANY artist. The bottom line is, they are definitly stirring up the Hip-Hop scene. Compared 2 most of the people getting airplay, the Beatie Boys are kicking butt...if they can take one play away from the average wack Ludacris or Eminem song, more power 2 them.
  5. We expect the album 2 hit stores...but Will talked about releasing it on the internet 1st...then 2 stores. Will is definitly about being available 2 the fans. He wouldn't put out and album that only a certain amount of his fans could access (unless he dosen't wanna be a mainstream artist). We want the album NOW...so he needs 2 make it available 2 us now. The album can hit stores later. Besides, usually when artists do something like that, the internet buyers usually get some kinda bonus from getting it in advance straight from the artist.
  6. If the movie is good and gets decent success, then it looks like Will will be getting paid for years 2 come...ha ha. Of course if the sequel scripts are wack, he won't have anything 2 do with it.
  7. Yeah, that's what i waz saying a few posts up. Who would just wanna download it?!
  8. That dose suck 4 those who use their computers 2 only listen 2 music. I think it's a great idea. The internet has ruined the music industry more than it has helped it. Think about it...as the internet got more popular and as more music waz put online, the greedier and more money-driven the industry has got. There are just way 2 many people who are ripping off artists and record labels so i totally have no problem with the computer-proof CDs.
  9. [quote=Jazzy Julie,May 26 2004, 06:47 PM]I also got B2R from the same shopas an import 9 days b4 it was released in the UK, at the time i thought i was so lucky, but i could have just waited 9 days lol.[/quote] That's really cool. I got Big Willie Style 2 days b4 it waz released...i waz so happy.
  10. I don't care what he dose, i just want some music soon. I wouldn't want it downloadable. If he releases it on the internet, make it purchased on the internet and have the CD get mailed 2 the fans. They can also make it so that it can't be copied/read by computers. I have a few CDs like that (which dosen't matter cuz i use my external CD burner, which has nothing 2 do with computers more). I'm sure that would slow down it getting leaked on the internet. The sales would also be more private so that alot fewer people would even be thinkin' about putting on the internet.
  11. Just so i don't think about this 2 hard, i'm just gonna list my top favs.... Potnas The Rain Holla Back Just Cruisin' How Da Beat Goes Give My Tonite
  12. ?UESTION: Is this the kinda album i wanna have 4 the Summertime or for the fall??
  13. I remember the name. They were out in about the mid-90's right? I think i remember really liking one song of their's and not likeing another.
  14. Will isn't muslim. In 2001, he got alot of ?uestions about that and he said he wazn't. He said that when he studied the religion, he found many things he liked in the religion, but that dosen't mean he believes in it in a spiritual sense. There are parts of it that i agree with, but by no means am i muslim...ha ha. "The Rain" wouldn't be the same song if he waz muslim. Ali wanted Will 2 play him in the bio pic cuz he's hansome, young, and successful...it had nothing 2 do with religion. With the ALI coming out right after 9/11, the whole muslim waz a hot topic, so people ate it up since Ali is muslim.
  15. Man, i'm STILL looking for the original release of Rock The House on CD. I have it on vinyl but i really want the CD.
  16. I think in the very early 90's, Will waz considering trying stand up. I can't remember why i think this...i just remember reading something about it in the early 90's. I think Will would make a good comidian but i find it hard 2 imagin him doing it. Writing songs and scripts is much different from doing stand up.
  17. Yeah, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air waz a great way 2 introduce Hip-Hop 2 a new audience. It featured guest appearances by Heavy D, Queen Latifah, Bell Biv Devoe and featured music from JJ+FP, Technotronic, Soul II Soul, Sugarhill Gang, etc. The soundtrack that waz released overseas is dope. I already liked nearly every song on it b4 i even heard it.
  18. That waz great...THANX!! I think i've seen that show once with another actor on it. It waz the most awful and bizarre interview show i've ever seen. I'd like 2 see all of Will's cuz i can't imagin how even Will could make it totally barable.
  19. Thanx, i'm on my way 2 check 'em out.
  20. I've been willing 2 give acappellas out 2 remixers but nobody comes thru'. Usually it's that trax i don't care 2 hear remixed as much (Men In Black, Miami, etc). Just Cruisin', Freakin' It, So Fresh and Gettin' Jiggy Wit It totally need a good Hip-Hop remix but i never see any. Of course, a remix is only as good as the remixer. There have been past remixes by fans but the beats never blend right. I think Vipa is the only one who has made good ones (that i can think of).
  21. Will's got a new album finished and 2 new movies on the way...in no way is his career dead. Just last summer he had one of the biggest movies out. Will has come back succesfull after weather a lack-luster album and movie over and over again. I think that's what he means when he says "i'm a pressure playa / i'ma hit it when it counts." I will agree that some people are very negative and always expect the worse in every topic. U can look at almost anything in life and say ONLY good or ONLY bad things about. Focusing only on the bad is no way 2 live...ha ha.
  22. Alot of people think they know something about Hip-Hop, but they really don't. U'll find that out quick when holding conversations with people. No offense 2 younger people, but u kinda expect a more accurate knowlege as Hip-Hop music and culture with age. But i'm sure that with places like this 2 meet online, some younger people get skooled on the good stuff and the old stuff. There isn't really any other outlets 4 people 2 get exposed or hear about real music anymore. After all, it's not in the media, on the radio or on TV. Usually, if it IS on the radio or TV, u know it's not worth checking out...ha ha.
  23. I appricate all their stuff. Each era represents a different thing and i can associate all of them with certain times in my own life. I didn't own Rock The House until 1991, but of course i knew of "Girls Ain't Nothing But Trouble"...so listening 2 the entire album gets associated with that song which reminds me of when i waz younger...but also 1991 since that's when i bought it. When i make mixtapes 2 drive around 2, it's usually the stuff from the 1990's up until now, but that dosen't mean i don't appriciate that stuff. I havn't outgrown it or anything.
