I love Willennium!! One of my favorite songs on that album is "Who Am I" and I found out not too long ago that the girl who sings the chorus of that song was Tatyana Ali from FBOBA!!! When I read that I was like "Whoa! That's awesome!!" I never thought Will and Tatyana would do anything else together after FPOBA, but I guess I was wrong! So yeah, Willennium is definately one of my favorite albums!! Hope Lost & Found is just as great!! :werd: :thumb: :wiggle:

Willenium I haven't been really feeling lately. Mainly because its more a winter album to me and now its almost spring and I'm already gettin well prepared for "Lost & Found". I was though listening to "I'm Comin" and I love that song. FP just totally kicks it as usual but the beats are really damn good.

I love Willenium, but I agree w/ Bigted that I'll never understand why "Freakin' It" was the second single off the album. "Will2k" was a pop beat, but had some good rhymes, and was cool at the time w/ the turn of the millenium (even tho the whole willenium joke was always a delicate balance between funny and obnoxious). But "Freakin It"? It was decent and kinda pop-catchy but... so many other quality tracks they couldve chosen. I still think "So Fresh" could've been a hit, despite that it was so old-school. Suuuuuuuuuch a good song.

Columbia thought because "Gettin' Jiggy Wit It" waz such a hit that it would be a good idea 2 do the same thing with Willennium and push "Freakin' It" as the pop track. If they would have went 4 another track that represented the album more 2 be released, it probably would have taken the album 2 more success. But nooo... :mad8:

Willenium is (BIG STATEMENT TO MAKE) one of the best albums of all time.

It has everything you could want out of a hip hop album, Party Tracks, Deep Tracks, Old School Tracks, Soft Tracks

I listen to it these days in a whole diffferent way to when i bought it when i was 15.

I think Timeless is the word. :afro:

He only says "Tatyana Ali" on the track. :hilarious: FP also served as Executive Producer of her 1998 album Kiss The Sky. Better than that, he also dropped a rap on a remix of her single "Boy You Knock Me Out" which had a great music video 4 it as well. He also put her on the Wild Wild West soundtrack with Kel Spencer.
