I love her CD. I have it on constant rotation in my car and at work. My fav tracks are # 1, 5, 6, 9, 10, 11, and 12. However, the whole CD is good.

Re: Goapele
 

#1- "Closer" is my theme song now as i job hunt and go back to school :)

John Legend will be on sale this week at Best Buy for $7.99!!

I heard his CD has been pushed back until DECEMBER!!!!

WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY:(

Say it isn't so......:mad:

I don't know because it certainly is advertised and I know they don't put these ads together that far in advance. His website has both dates listed, so I will just go looking for the disc on Tuesday.

ETA: This is the Oct. 16 update/journal entry from John Legend's website: Speaking of October 26... as some of you may have already learned, Sony has decided not to release my album on that date. The new release date is Tuesday, December 28. They wanted to give me a chance to get some more exposure on radio and television before we put the album out. I know that all my loyal fans have been waiting a while for the album, but most people in the country don't know who I am yet, and the label wanted to give them a chance to hear more about me before we put the album out.

ETAA: the Circuit City website has the release date listed as January 4, 2005. :mad:

WHAT'S REALLY GOING ON?

I think it's a good idea to push the date back. He received some eposure from the tour. The new song is creating alot of buzz. While I want the CD now, I think pushing it back will help him move more units.

**Ok, I'm digging Nas' Bridging the Gap. The video is cute too.**

Nas is coming here on the 12th. Of all the times that he has been to N.O., I have NEVER seen him. I HATE going to concerts at the House of Blues. Man, they try to cram so many negros up in there that it's a shame. I can't stand being uncomfortable, especially in STANDING ROOM ONLY. I'll have to think about whether or not I want to see him bad enough. My passion for him has waned since he has been with Kelis.... And let's not EVER talk about his video with him sporting those gold teeth!! :mad: :mad: :mad:

Dang, that's messed up. At least I can still get Unifinshed Business and my Fraggle Rock DVD.

CDnow.com has January 4, 2005 also. :mad:

I just check Bestbuy.com and they now show this as the release date also.


Upcoming Releases (according to mtv.com):

November 16:

Destiny's Child Destiny Fulfilled
Eminem Encore

November 23:

Gwen Stefani Love Angel Music Baby

*singing like Sleepy Brown*

I can't wait, can't wait, I can't wait, no can't wait...

I love DC's new song, but they could have done much better on the video. Plus, B is just up there a little to much.

I agree. They might as well rename the group Beyonce and the Other Two.

Didn't know there was a video. Their performance on the Radio awards was terrrrrible.

Here's the link to watch the video: Lose My Breath

When I first heard the song I could have sworn it was Jennifer Lopez doing the "vocals." I guess that let's you know what I think of it. :D

check these out
 

For those into gospel music you should pick up the J Moss project and the new Donald Lawrence "Speak Life"

Michelle can't dance. :( So why would they base the entire video on dancing? :confused:

Re: check these out
 

Is J Moss the guy who sings "We must Praise"? I love that song if that's him!

Don't say that!!! But I did LOL at this comment. I'm tired of all this pop locking, wanta pop lock, pop the hips side to side, do something with your booty and walk like a run way model type of stuff. In their early days DC use to work it out in their videos and their videos were great. Now their doing stuff that B did for her solo CD...come out with something fresh.

Why am I loving Snoop's new song and video?!!!

I have fallen in love with John Legend. That boy is FINE!!! He would not feel that way if he was with me.;) :) :D

Soror, They are ONLY trying to sale their CD. :p :D

That is my SONG!!! I love it. It makes me hype every time I hear it. :D

Re: Re: check these out
 

Yes thats him....his CD is great

95% of the time, I don't really care for Fabolous, but I am really digging his new single and video "Breathe".

*sigh* I love Hip-Hop
 

Well, I finally got my own copy of Mos Def's The New Danger and Talib's Beautiful Struggle. It's official. Talib Kweli is my favorite lyricist. I like this CD better than Quality.

BUT, Dante Smith can be my Boogeyman ANY day and I WILL give him The Panties. Cuz those two songs are HOT. I like Ghetto Rock, too. This CD is so smooth and sexy and jazzy and eclectic. I like, I like.

These two CDs will keep me happy for a while. A long, long while. :D

Re: *sigh* I love Hip-Hop
 

I WHOLEHEARTEDLY AGREE!!

Beautiful Struggle is T-I-G-H-T!! Mos drives me a bit with the way he yells "Boogeyman" through the background of most of the songs, but it's OK. He's still my baby! :p

Re: Re: *sigh* I love Hip-Hop
 

*sigh* please don't make me fight you. You got Nas. You got Jigga. And now you want MyFuturePretendPhallicRelationsPartner? STOP BEIN' SO GREEDY!!! :P

But for real, lemme ask you this. You got the Lyricist Lounge 2 CD? My CDs are still packed in a box (sad, cuz I moved three months ago) so I can't get to mine. Track 5 off of The New Danger sounds like a song off the LL2 CD. As a matter of fact, I know it's on there. I'ma pull out my CD when I get home and see what it is. And I'ma look that CD up online now so I can see, lol.

Re: Re: Re: *sigh* I love Hip-Hop
 

You're right. My bad! I can't be greedy like that. :D

No, I don't have that disc. Sounds like something I need to get. I may need to check out Amazon Marketplace...

This is off topic, but has anyone been to the Def Poetry Jam Live Tour? I don't want to waste my money and buy tickets for something that is wack. I LOVE the HBO program and I am sure that I will like the live performances. Is Mos going out with this tour or not? I need to get to the bottom of this.

I really like the new Destiny's Child song with T.I. and Lil' Wayne. I saw the video and at the end Solange is there BIG AS A HOUSE!! Oh, and RD you need to back up off Jigga. :o

The song and video is cool. Beyonce wants everybody to believe that she is a high class diva, but she has some 'hood in her. It's slowly but surely coming out. Kelly and Michelle are trying to become a little bit sexier. Did y'all see Kelly in that white bathing suit, a la "Baby Boy" video? Solange was HUUUUUUGE!!!!

Hol' up now, Gina!! Don't make me challenge you to a duel!! :p :D

Mos, track 5, it's not on LL2
 

It's from a Jay-Z song I think. My goodness, this is killin' me. Help. :(

Anyway, I've been reading reviews of Mos' CD and people don't like it!!! Can you believe that? I just saw it compared to Electric Circus (which I LOVED) and The Love Below (which I also, love). But why is it that Andre got MUCH more love for his eclectic CD than did Mos? What is THAT about?

ETA: I'm convinced that someone other than a black person is writing most of these reviews, because somebody just dissed The Panties. Come ON, now.

I'm not a DC fan, nor B but...
 

Re: DC

I'm a bit disappointed. I mean B's writing on her solo project showed that she HAD grown. Ummmmmmm can you also show that growth on DCs project(s)? It's the SAME ole same ole...very trite and contrived...IMO

I guess I was looking for MORE.

Maybe my expectations are too high? :confused:

Challenge away!! :o :p

In that case, meet me by the flagpole after school. :o

(That's how we used to do it back in the day! :p )

OK, I am sitting here groovin' to Hidden Beach's Unwrapped Vol.3. I mean, until you hear a jazzy version of P.I.M.P, you "ain't lived"! LOL!!!!!!!

I heard the new Destiny's Child album and I liked it. Of course, I'm a DC fan, but it sounded good to me.

A few cd's i picked up this weekend:

John Legend- off da chain
Eminem- even OFFER da chain (i'm a big Eminem fan)
Lil Scrappy- I'm late on this one, but it's cool. (you're the weakest link, goodbye!)
I-20 - maybe i need to listen to it again. but for now, we'll say it's garbage
Shawna - i need to listen again. it's ok though
Fabulous- it was disappointing.
Ja Rule- I just wanna go on record as saying i did not buy this, i just listened to someone else's. it was a waste of time, but i'll admit that i didn't give it much of a chance.
New Edition - i haven't really listened to it yet, but get it hot tonight is off da chain.

Is this a bootleg? 'Cause I'm still mad that it did not come out when it was supposed to.
