Perry

So Prince really fcked up huh ? I ain't had a chance to get on in a few days, and I couldn't be bothered reading that much so I'm just assuming. Now will someone believe me that I didn't post those fcked up images, it was him, and take away this redundant warning ? EDIT : Uhh.. why's it doubled ?

Hank ?

Flava Flav says : Don't Belive The Hype!

I didn't read the last few posts because I couldn't be bothered, and it seemed like it'd be repetitive anyway. A) You are not allowed to diss LL in any way shape or form. I don't care if the man dresses up like a chicken and parachutes off the Empire state building holding hands with another man. He is a vet. The artists you listen to listened to LL when they were becoming artists. I admit I don't blaze his latest tracks simply because I ain't feelin' em. But LL's done too much to just be sh*ted on, as already said. B) You are not allowed to diss LL.

You wouldn't believe just how down to earth he is.

I was going to meet Jazz I smartened up like it was Christmas! :sonny: I wondered who stole my polos!!!

I'm a die hard Wizards follower. Never miss anything wherever possible (and that's actually a lot living in the UK..) But I've followed the Lakers, and Magic for many, many years. I guess I'm a fan of em but over all I'm a Wizards fan. This yeah I'm gonna be watching the Heat too I think ;)

Keep yourself on a good, and anonymous ISP. Even if you don't do anything illegal. Besides there are some ways I don't believe things are wrong. For example, I can't watch Method & Red in the UK, and more than likely will never be able to especially with it about to be canned.

[quote=JumpinJack AJ,Oct 5 2004, 01:12 AM][quote=DefCEM,Oct 4 2004, 08:46 PM] I know, its a stupid question, bt whats the difference between rapper and mc? is an mc doing more than just rapping or what? i dont get it... :what:  :dunno: jjfp rocks the house![/quote] A rapper just raps. Nothing more 2 it. Pretty much anybody can be a rapper. An Emcee / MC is best discribed by Rakim as someone who can "[b][u]m[/u][/b]ove the [b][u]c[/u][/b]rowd." A rapper who can relate 2 their fans and get a reaction from them, that's an emcee. These days rappers don't know how 2 perform, put on a show, and even have a personality. FP, Run, Rakim, KRS put on a show that people love and they draw the fans in. People like Ludacris, Nelly, 50 Cent simply get on stage, scream alot, cuss, and walk around with a posse of like 2-5 no namers. When people like FP, Wyclef, KRS, and so on put on a show, they talk 2 the audience and they put on a quality show. MC Hammer did it with shiny suits and like 100 back up dancers...but people like JJ+FP and Run-DMC did with just microphones and turntables. It didn't matter the level of show...if u can reach people, u are an emcee. Rappers these days just don't know how 2 perform [/quote] Ayo Luda got skills. He really proved his lyrical worth on his last album. And he does know how to mofe a crowd. I would agree he's on the fence and would probably call him just a rapper myself, but he does got lyrical talent, and he can put on a show.

I doubt we'll ever see older entire albums remastered. Even if Will sells big, there just won't be enough want to warrant a record company to do it. We got Platinum & gold, mixed with newer songs to give it such a wider market. How did Before The Willenium sell ? Either way it was made up of the most known of the JJ+FP tracks. As much as I'd love to see and hear them all remastered professionally, I wouldn't hold my breath. Devils : Rip the album and higher the volume up yourself. I had to do it when I bought the old 2pacalypse now on CD.

[quote=Hero1,Oct 4 2004, 08:17 PM]man i love bit torrent thats where i get all my tv shows from .. i hope they dont shut it down..[/quote] BT isn't file sharing in the usual sense. It works directly. There's no central server, except for the tracker. And trackers can be made in minutes anywhere at any time. And any torrent can use any differant torrent theoretically. It couldn't be shut down. If you're really that worried get yourself on IRC. It's entirely anonymous.

[quote=Jazzy Julie,Oct 4 2004, 01:38 PM]i got rid of kazaa a while ago, bcoz my firewall wouldnt let me use it. Ive got that soulsearch instead, but i blocked ppl from seeing my files coz im scared incase thay can get to all the really rare jjfp songs i got from here. I tried to download something the other day and this guy was like "let me see your files", so i ran away lol.[/quote] Julie, don't worry we don't have the same laws as the US. We're more than safe :switch: Either way it's unbelievably stupid. Remember the 12 year odl girl they tried to sue ? Since they don't know who's at the other end they just automatically do... If they're gonna do something like go after people pirating media, at least do it the right way. Besides, people downloading the latest song is the least of they're problems, piracy goes way beyond that. . .

I'm not worthy!

[quote=JumpinJack AJ,Oct 4 2004, 03:21 PM]I've broken this down b4...but let me do it again. Hip-Hop music is any kinda music coming from Hip-Hop culture. Mary J. Blige makes R-N-B music...but she also makes Hip-Hop music. Listen 2 the lyrics...listen 2 where she's comin' from. Just cuz she isn't rapping (tho' she has), it dosen't mean she isn't a Hip-Hop artist making Hip-Hop music. Rap music is simply music with someone rappin' on it. That's what G-Unit is. Those guys aren't saying anything that has 2 do with Hip-Hop culture. They are simply rapping....not emceeing. Look at the difference. Emcees like FP are rockin' the mic, being themselves (whether it's popular or not), they take life and put it in2 music. They got heart and intellegence. They got real DJing and beatboxing when neccessary. People like Nelly just rap. Do u really get anything out of his music lyrically...dose it really represent the lifestyle of people who buying the albums?!?! Let's be real...there's a difference between people like Fresh Prince, LL Cool J, Rakim, Chuck D, Run-DMC, Talib Kweli, Guru, Heavy D, Treach, 2pac, KRS-One and people like Ja-Rule, Nelly, 50 Cent, Lil' Scrappy, Chingy, and Master P. U can like what u want...but don't u dare mix that up. 2 honestly say people like 50 Cent are Hip-Hop is like spitting on the game. Like what u want, but try 2 fool other people.[/quote] Knowledge. That's what I'm saying but you got it a lot more precise and on point.

Now it ain't great, it was taken with my phone since it was all I had, but here it is. I couldn't resist showing ya's :D. I'm getting the shirt him and skills signed pinned up on my wall in glass, with this picture inside there once I clean it up. [img]http://www.ep001a5545.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/photo0064.jpg[/img]

I didn't read this whole argument but I got a few comments to make. before I do know that I am in no way a fan of 50/G-Unit etc. Though the one cat out there doing that I respect in one way is Em because he does have some real raw talent. Wasted in one way or not he does have skill. Don't talk about how Public Enemy in the past, wherefore you can't put him with 50, because not so long ago Chuck and Flav turned up at a 50 concert in Australia because he was over there doing shows and came out on stage saying he hopes 50 does his thing for a long time. One man who knows rap is Chuck and in his opinion 50 is doing his thing. So using Public Enemy isn't right. That said as above is correct. These people are rap artist. Not Hip Hop. If we are looking at Hip Hop's origins it's a culture. Not a style of music. Rap is the music, Hip Hop is the culture. It embraces many things from B-boy's to DJs and Rappers. Allthough Hip Hop as a word has become known as rap music, it's not technically true. Now about the money. Many, many people would turn down a superstar career just so they wasn't 'Selling out' as it were. Personally Id do it another way. The only person who comes to mind who did it is Christina. Got a pop contract, because a superstar then turned her back on it and did everything in her own style. If she hadn't done the pop music she dosen't really like she wouldn't be a millionaire doing her own thing right now. Sometimes you just got bite the bullet and do things. Now that that's said I'm going to find my Tribe CD's. I have a headache from all the bad music I'm talking about..

I can see it now, try hitting refresh. I wonder if they're gonna build a studio for Will to. Then he can go record tracks when he got Jeff over coolin' and release them specifically for us :P Got a link to the above info BTW ?

[quote=JamesUK,Oct 1 2004, 08:28 AM]from 6 til 7 on mtv[/quote] If I'm still at home at six, I'll record it and get it up after the weekend, otherwise sorry.

[quote=Hero1,Oct 1 2004, 08:24 AM]the joke is someone took a statement that will is waiting for the 15th million post on this board to release switch.. seriously [/quote] Ah, I thought we was talking about the first post or something, lol. I seen that a little while ago. Still...

[quote=JamesUK,Oct 1 2004, 08:27 AM]I know I haven't been in this discussion but i think that style, delivery and personality are still just as important[/quote] In Will's case they're more important. They're what makes him Will. And Will delivery, style and personality come across together better and more original than anyone I've ever seen...

[quote=Hero1,Oct 1 2004, 07:19 AM]doesnt need the wealth but i'll bet he'll sell 10 mil[/quote] To send a chill down the spine of emcess less skilled an heres the thrill, will+jeff back together for another...

How can I have a warning for posting dirty pictures when it was Prince ? I wholly object and would like further discussion. That was pathetic.

Spice1 - The most underrated westcoast artist IMO. Naughty By Nature, as the group. They're so overlooked it's unbeliavable. Crooked I - Admittedly he's not released a debut album yet after so long but there's enough tracks out there for everyone to blaze. He's raw talent. Nothin' but the best there I can't fault him. There'll be more but nobody is at mind, I'm at work.
