So is there a bonus video on the DVD's too because my copy doesn't have Freakin It?

the song you refer to with Lil Kim is called Da Butta and it wasn't released whatsoever as you claim. ← Well, being that I was a radio DJ during the time this album was out and I remember Da Butta getting rotation on many stations in the US including my city, I think I'll stick with my story. ← that's cool i'll stick with mine because i know it wasn't released unless it was some kind of promo that nobody has found out about. do u know if it was some kind of a promo single or did DJ's just play that song off of Willennium for no particular reason? ← Nah. They don't let DJ's pick their own music anymore. Corporate bigwigs control everything. It was getting rotations on different stations across the country. Never checked to see if it was a promo, though. All songs get loaded into a computer automation system. Could have been.

Anyone know why Freakin It isn't on the DVD of his videos? Yes, The Rain should have been a single and So Fresh too. I also wanted the song with Eve to release but instead they released the one with Lil Kim. No Jill Scott and no Eve. No love for Philly at Columbia.

There hasn't been another clean rapper since Heavy D. Will is the only clean rapper left standing.

When did Making the Video begin airing? To my knowledge this would be Will's first time doign it if it happens. I sure hope so. If not this video then Tell Me Why for sure.

I really dislike the radio edit. The song does not have the same feel. I worry about this version being a hit, because this version doesn't make me want to hear the song again.

He's started to perform. Check it out!

SOMEBODY CLOSE THIS TOPIC PLEASE

I bet it will be on the chart for awhile since the rap game is in such a poor state right now. Not much good music out there, so people are clinging on to Big Willie!

Most of the kids today only know Will as an actor and they only have seen rap with thugs and think thats what rap is, so that is why we hear more about his movies than his music. BET AND MTV both know Will the rapper. Will was on the FIRST EVER edition of Yo MTV Raps with Run DMC, and I remember Girls aint nothin But Trouble on BET. It's just a new generation of people & TV/music execs that just doesn't know or tries not to know Will the rapper.

Is this DVD available in the US?

Anybody have the original music video of her and Will?

VH1 has this program that tracks what happened to kids stars and at the end of one edition they show a clip from "Ashley's" first music video and Will is rapping. I had forgotten about this song. Anyone seen it?

Turned the channel on in just enough time to hear the crowd cheer as they went to commercial! :sigh: I heard he changed some of the lyrics. Is this true? And if so, what did he change?

I chose based on how many songs I skip on the album. I listened to Lost and Found all the way through everyday for about 5 weeks. His best album by far, because its got different topics. Sorry Willennium fans, but even with songs like The Rain, So Fresh, W2K and Freakin IT ( which I think is the best song on the album), I put Big Willie Style as my 2nd Fav (because even the interludes are entertaining!) and then Willennium.

I can't say that Born to Reign only got one single because it was weaker, it just didn't the marketing needed. I just happened to be in store the Tuesday it came out, but I didn't know it was coming out. For Lost and Found however, Will got a 30min special on MTV before it dropped, Will is doing shows for it and touring. From Born to Reign I thought Nothin on my Mind, Give me Tonight and Act like Ya Know would have been good singles. Lost and Found will definitely get at least one more single because of promotion alone.

I feel your pain about Party Starter, but I think Switch fits in more with a upbeat NBA crowd. No one ever debuts a song at these sporting events to my knowledge.

The details are nice, but anybody got a release date for the video?

I was thinking about this the other day. I'd like it to be more than three. My group: The Justice League Will Smith Nas Common Talib Jadakiss Kanye Kinda like the Wu-Tang concept with albums every 2 years or something. They would drop serious knowledge in all their rhymes and bring "thought" back to this art form. I think this group could make a no curse album and sale well.

This song is TIGHT!!!! Who decides what songs make it to the album? I think if this had been released as a summer single, Will could have gotten more sales out of the Born to Reign album.

Can someone put The Chosen One out there for me? I'm new to this site.
