Look for me! Young, B Cruisin down the westside - high, way Doing what we like to do - our, way Eyes behind shades, this necklace the reason all of my dates been blind dates But today, I got my thoroughest girl wit me I'm mashin the gas, she's grabbin the wheel, it's true to the heart She rides with me - the new Bobby and Whitney Only time we don't speak is during "Sex and the City" She gets Carrie fever, but soon as the show is over She's right back to being my soldier Cuz mami's a rider, and I'm a roller Put us together, how they gon' stop both us? What ever she lacks, I'm right over her shoulder When I'm off track mami is keepin me focused So let's, lock this down like it's supposed to be The '03 Bonnie and Clyde, Hov' and B All I need in this life of sin, is me and my girlfriend. Down to ride 'til the very end, it's me and my boyfriend. All I need in this life of sin, is me and my girlfriend. Down to ride 'til the very end, it's me and my boyfriend. |

Does anyone own 'The Blueprint 2'? What do you think? *owl hoots in the distance |

I think he's a sad excuse for a ''Jay''. |

i'm not a big Jay Z fan.....now J LIVE is a different story......ehehhe i like the chorus! |
||||||||

two big thumbs down, get some "real" hip-hop instead |
||||||||

the chorus is stolen from a 2pac song called "me and my girlfriend" the bridge is stolen from a prince song called "if i was your girlfriend" kanye west's production is tight on the song though i give jay-z "the blueprint 2" a 2 out of 5 star rating. wasn't worth the $10 i paid for it. the neptunes' wackest production ever. best song on there though is "the watcher 2" with the god rakim. |

god whats with all these "producers" ripping off the b-sides of other hip-hop songs. For christs sake, is nothing sacred anymore. Did people really become this greedy and lazy? Jeezus, I turned on the radio recently and heard this shite rnb crap over a B.I.G b-side, WTF. And that new J-lo track is sampling not one... but at least three other old hip hop songs... damn. I want to find these "producers" and just bitch slap them to death!!!!!!!!!!! AAARRRRRGGGGHHHHHHHHH! |

"Did people really become this greedy and lazy?" yes. |

well unlike ashanti's producer(s) taking the biggie instrumental (which itself is a looped segment of "stay with me" by el debarge) and just having the girl sing over it, the "'03 bonnie & clyde" instrumental has nothing to do with anything 2pac or prince; the music's original, just the choruses (melody and some words) are borrowed. that's more creative than some other recent tactics (like j. lo's new song ripping off beats from boogie down productions and da beatnuts). kanye west is a great producer. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Buts its fackin everywhere... not just on the two tracks you mentioned titsworth. Its like a evil goddamn lazy virus. I want to see some creativity happening, and not just with timbaland, n.e.r.d, swiss beats... and maybe five others.... ack! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah but aren't you interested in the rumors that Jay z is banging the girl from destiny's child....huh huh aren't you? I am, these creative talents put together could evolve music to a whole new level. he he |

Can we please move past the bling-bling, pimpin them hos, mack daddying the lo-ride phase of hip-hop and move on to something fresh PLEASE! I might start listening again...maybe... :/ |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
those are the 2 tracks YOU mentioned. i agree that it's everywhere. i could name some other creative producers if you really like? |

"Can we please move past the bling-bling, pimpin them hos, mack daddying the lo-ride phase of hip-hop and move on to something fresh PLEASE! " YES! Please, lets move on.... what I really would like titsworth, is for prefuse73 to hit it big and see HIM or other underground hip hop people on MTV and spammed all over radio, people who actually have something to say and some degree of drive to do something new... and have a message. I could name more producers also... but it would probubly end up in a pissing match .... and I dont really dig mainstream hip hop coming out today that much anyway. Nas ass raped Jay-Z with his last album. "your a slave to a page in my rhyme book...." |

electronic music board? |

| |||||||||
|

Hip hop has loads of electronic elements in it. |
||||||||
|
|

|

Dr.Dre was my first and I always end up comparing everything to him... He still topples all the competition too. Something about his style is so..so.. I don't know. Thick? It's almost tangible. |

jay z sucks |

jiggaman ya heard! i must say, he only deserves about 5% of his fame and 1% of his accolades for his talent, but he's such a smart business man! he's not a bad rapper just nothing special. i could name 100 rappers i'd rather see famous. |

Are you kidding? The Blueprint (part 1) is my vote for hip hop album of the year! Anyone who hasn't heard it shouldn't judge it - those who have know what I'm talkin' about. Hip hop isn't just Def Jux releases kiddies. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
we're talking about The Blueprint 2 from last month. different album. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
but, hip-hop for 2001, in my opinion: 1. DJ Krush - Zen 2. Saul Williams - Amethyst Rock Star 3. N.E.R.D. - In Search Of... 4. D12 - Devils Night 5. Jay-Z - The Blueprint |

"what I really would like titsworth, is for prefuse73 to hit it big and see HIM or other underground hip hop people on MTV and spammed all over radio, people who actually have something to say and some degree of drive to do something new... and have a message." I think Kweli's new album delivers on this. The problem is that people don't want to hear stuff like Prefuse - they want jiggy - that's what's popular. Oh and titsworth - I know you were discussing Blueprint 2 - I was referring to people dissing Jay Z in general above. Talib Kweli's Quality didn't make the top 5? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Was that in reply to Dre or Jay? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
How about top 5 hip-hop records of all time? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Now that's impossible - but here goes (from my limited knowledge of hip hop) If I had to pick just 5: Public Enemy - It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back Dr. Dre - The Chronic Nas - Illmatic Wu Tang Clan - Enter The (36 Chambers) Outkast - ATLiens I don't know ... I had to leave out so many great ones - it's just too tough. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
quality is 2002. it just came out! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
dre-jay, shay-nay-nay! no, it was in response to jay-z (i own 3 of his albums). i don't do favorite albums of all time lists |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The only hip hop album I have is Stankonia, and it's da shit! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Come on you weenie! Gimme 5 essential hip-hop albums then. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
lol cabbog: no! judge by who i talk about on here, whose upcoming albums are on my release dates page, who i play on my show.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
If you like Stankonia, you should check out ATliens and/or Aquemini, both top albums from my favorite rap group of all time, Outkast |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i will say this much: aquemini by outkast is my fave hip-hop album and one of my top 5 favorite albums of all time. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Argh.. Whatever T. I didn't like The Roots new cd that much and I bought it entirely on your recommendation. ..So nyeah! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
keep listening! the first 2 tracks, 1 is like 20 seconds long right? anyway, you're not gonna like every album or every song on an album, but i like the roots cd a lot. i'll post my "top 20 of 2002" in a couple weeks! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yes. The first 3 are my favorite.. What's wrong with the board? I used the search engine to locate your old battles with ArchRival but it won't let me view them. "Bad Request" it says. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
tracks 1 and 3 don't even make a full 60 seconds. what didn't you like about quills? thought @ work? the seed? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I don't know.. I'm a carnivore when it comes to hip-hop - the meatier the better. I can't believe Jack Dangers is a vegetarian.. I don't mind the swollen ego or misogynistic attitude either; in fact I can even relate to a lot it! Sensual beats are a must as well.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"Stankonia, and it's da shit! " YES!!!!! I love this release!!!!!!! Outkast, I love em, ATLiens was kick ass also! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
buy the new talib kweli album then. you'll love the kanye west, jay dee, and hedrush produced tracks. quality: $8.99 @ best buy. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
also buy dead prez's debut album "let's get free". if venetian snares were black, the instrumentals for that album would be the tracks he'd make. (the whole album was produced by dead prez with hedrush.) the lyrics are all black power, anti-capitalism, anti-commercial hip-hop, anti-police, etc. if you can block out misogynist lyrics then you should be able to block these lyrics out too (unless you happen to agree with them, which i do). |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Could you give me a track title you think well-represents the flavor of the album? Like to try before I buy. I'll give 'Phrenology' another listen later tonight.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
talib kweli: both megaherz tracks: rush gun music a kanye west tack: good to you a jay dee track: where do we go the dj quik track: put it in the air dead prez, try out: i'm a african they schools police state |

i feel weird bumping a Cabbog topic but it's the only one i could find called "jay-z".. rest in peace anyway, here's a nice free 2CD collection of jay-z remixes done by some college student/hip-hop fan.. they're all original music using jay-z a capellas. really nice, i'm impressed. to download this you should like jay-z or just be really curious about remixes. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
