Has anyone picked up New Edition's CD? :confused:

No, but I'm going to next week.

I got Eminem's Encore today and I am diggin' it. I was in the car ROLLIN' off of some of the lyrics. Example: "I hope you get to h*ll and Satan sticks a needle in your eye." I was like WHAT?! I had to rewind that one, lol. Evil Deeds might be my favorite track. At least so far, lol.

Did anyone peep Jay-Z vs. Linkin Park on MTV? I have fallen in love with Linkin Park (Don't ask) but when they put Jay-Z in the mix, it sounds real nice.

I like the song "1,2 Step". Goodies girl works it out in the video. I forgot her name, but her song will go on my workout CD.

Could someone please hurry up and buy New Edition and give me the scoop?

Right now, VH1 Soul is playing NE's CD (listening party). Thus far, I have heard 4 or 5 cuts. They are not all bad. So far, only ONE song has Puffy saying "Bad Boy". That song features alot of Ronnie and Mike.

I don 't think NE fans will be disappointed. If BB still has it for $9.99, I'll get it tomorrow.

I was just on BestBuy.com and they still list it as $9.99.

I saw the Mashup with Jay-Z. It does sound nice how they blended the two. I'll have to get that CD when it comes out.

Her name is Ciara.

Yep, on Thursday. I like it. It's no NE Heartbreak, but I like it!!

You can hear Destiny's Child new CD Destiny Fulfilled on mtv.com under The Leak. Have not listened yet but will later just to see how it is.

I'd never listened to Linkin Park before, but, I think that the song they combined Encore/Numb was soooooooo tight. I wonder can it be found together like that somewhere...:confused:

I just bought Michael McDonald's Motown Vol. 2. It's soooooooo good.

I bought it. It's pretty good!

New Edition's CD is pretty cool - at least what I've heard so far. I didn't know they were with Bad Boy.

For all of my Neo-Soul heads, the New Philly Soul vol. 2 and New California Soul are the jointz!! Check em out!!

Ditto. :D :D

The Cd comes out on the 30th.

Okay am I the only person who has DC's cd?? After listening to it I realized that none of their CDs was particularly spectactular. Just something to listen to while cleaning the house.

I agree. I was expecting more...

How come that's my favorite song? LOL!! Eminem is harmonizing his @** off on this CD. I also like Rain Man and Evil Deeds and Spend Some Time and @** like that and ..... well let's just say I like the whole CD.

He is harmonizing, ain't he?! I guess he felt like singin' again. I like the whole CD, too. Allow me to give you my highlights, lol:

Mosh - man, he is lettin' your president have it!! LOVE IT!!! This is tied with Like Toy Soldiers as my favorite songs lyricly (is that a word). With a smooth-azz-you-gotta-nod-your-head beat.

Puke - I'm sorry, but it is funny as hayle that he says he hopes Satan sticks a needle in her eye. But I also like it because it shows sort of a vulnerability while still being classic crass Em.

Like Toy Soldiers - I used to like the original song. But even still, I just love how he spins a story. One of the things I love about hiphop is the cadence of voice over beats. This song is a PERFECT example of that because of the drums. And it gives me a little insight into the JaRule beef.

Big Weenie - The first song in my mind when I heard about the Vibe fight. Again, I like the cadence of his voice over the beats in this song.

Mockingbird - I like the vulnerability he shows in this song, too. It helps me to think of him as a real person with real feelings, not just some crass @$$hole. I think that gives depth to him as an artist.

Encore - Definitely my favorite as far as beats (tied with Evil Deeds).

What I DON'T like is Nate Dogg's chorus in Never Enough. It could have been so much better; it's weak. But I DO like Fiddy's cadence of voice over beats in the song.

I read a review saying that while it is a good CD with good beats, they think he over did it with 20 tracks. As a consumer, I like that, lol; I get my money's worth. I guess they really hate that there's a bonus CD with 3 MORE songs. I've only listened to the 1st song on there, and I like it.

Lyrics and shock value? He's on point, as usual. He didn't disappoint me. :)

This is a good season for hiphop: Talib, Mos, and Em. If I don't buy anymore CDs this year . . . :cool:

I don't know if thread is for old or new albums... but a few years ago the group Ideal released their debut album and it was really really good. I count it a must have:)

We talk about it all: new, old, good and bad!

I have the Get Gone CD Single, but never got the whole CD. A must have, you say? I'ma see if the Record Exchange has it.

Their name is tight. ;) :D :p

LOL... somehow I KNEW YOU would LOVE the name..:D

I get paid tomorrow :-D So, I'm goin to pick up the Eminem cd. There was another one but I forgot what it was.

Ideal? Were they out in the 90s? What song(s) did they make?

They had a hit called Get Gone and another song called Whatever and Creep Inn.. they were out around 99-00. Mid-tempo R&B...

neva heard of 'em. :confused:

I guess I have to hear the songs.

was it kind of slow?
I'll have to see the video. :D

I THINK I know who you are speaking of...when you said they were from H-town.

This cracks me UP about you!! LOL

Well, you know. :D

I remember the song. I vaguely remember the video with the chick sneaking into the bathroom and stuff and talking on the phone 'til all hours of the night with some other guy. One night, the boyfriend wakes up and catches her then kicks her to the curb. She is supposed to "get gone." It used to be in heavy rotation on Midnight Love.

Did they have any other singles? :confused:

You know...I think Nate Dogg is so overrated. I despise his voice, he has a lazy singing voice, maybe it's an acquired taste.

BTW, I haven't heard the song, I just think anything ND does is horrible.

I broke up with a guy around the time their single "Get Gone" came out and it was my anthem!! That CD is really nice and it was in heavy rotation back in '99.

They also had a single called "Creep Inn." But there are better songs on the rest of the album. There's one where they are a capella...oooh yeah :D

Dat's why his solo chit went triple wood (4 CT4). :p

He's good for a HOOK, like Ashanti! :p They should do a duet! :D

See, I like his voice. I don't expect him to be a stellar crooner. I have his "triple wood" CD and I like it.

Re: destiny's child
 

Yea, i also think the cd is pretty good. I kinda feel bad for Michelle because Beyonce and Kelly's voices are so powerful....and Michelle's voice just isn't as developed as the other two. But my favorites are 3, 5 and 8.

I agree, Michelle comes off really weak. It's pretty good though. I'm also feeling #'s 3 & 4 :D

I can't seem to get John Legend out of my disc player either........

Re: destiny's child
 

I didn't like #10 either for some reason. I'm in love with #11, though. I have that song on repeat! :D Overall, the CD is pretty good. I have to give it a 4 out of 5.
