What music are you feeling right now?

Ideal08 · #1 12-08-2000, 10:04 AM

I love music, yall!! So I figured, why not start a topic on it?! Anywho.... after I bought Jill Scott, not much has been in my CD player since (before her it was Kelis). Well, Musiq Soulchild has done it! He's taken over!!! I LOVE THIS CD!!!! Is anybody else feelin' me?? My favorite song I think is "Mary Go Round." I think it's tight how he spells out that verse at the end of the song.

So, everyone, tell me, what music are you feelin' right now??

I'm feeling you with Musiq. His CD is on point. I was a bit skeptical about it at first....I thought that he would be a one hit wonder....but he is good. I'm also feeling R. Kelly even though alot of my friends are hating. One other CD that gets constant play is Stankonia. The boys from the ATL always are good for something.

I bought R. Kelly's new one the same day that I got Musiq. To me, it goes without saying. I am NEVER disappointed by Mr. Kelly!!! Unfortunately, he's just not getting much play right now b/c of Musiq!

I am a R&B type girl!! I love to relax to music, dance to it and sing it ... so any type of rap is out - but if it plays on the radio and I like the beat I will listen. Otherwise in terms of new music I love me some R. Kelly. But if we are talking about what is in my CD player as we speak, I will have to say Mary J., I love me some Mary J. Never miss a concert when she comes to NYC, well except for last night which I am real upset about :-(
Others are Monica, since she was on MTV or was it BET, last week I am listening to her music again, she sings so much better then what's the other girls name -

just joking, Brandy is cool.
Oh and I can't forget to mention Mary Mary, the lady that sing "His name is Jesus" - I can't remember her name now, and of course Kirk Franklin for their gospel beats.

Sorry so long, but music is a favorite pastime for me!!!

I will let some other people post and then I will tell you what I just purchased from Columbia house.

Strawberri: I'm feeling my boy R. Kelly too! I just love him! My favorites are #s 2, 4, 14 & 15. But this cd has nothing on 12 play.
I've also played my Jill Scott cd to death, I know every song word for word. I'll have to pick up Musiq's cd, I keep hearing how great it is.

Monica is my girl! I don't really like Brandy, even though her mother is a Soror!

I think I have to agree with Mz Sports on this one I love my new Jill Scott CD! It's one of the few CD's of which I like every cut!

I feel you, I feel you, I feel you!!!!!!

Maxwell is the ultimate WHIP!!!!!!
I would be right in line behind you for my copy of "Mary Had a Little Lamb" .
Too bad he hasn't done anything for a while.

Also, I think y'all slept on Rashan Patterson. That brutha was a bad mutha....shut yo mouth.

But I think the coolest thing going right now is Musiq. And before I go I just gotta give honorable mention to the song by Avant and Katera, and Last but not least, my girl, Yolanda Adams

I think I'm the only person I know who prefers Brandy over Monica. Oh well. I have never heard of Rashan Patterson. I'm on my way to Napster right after I post this! Yall are crackin' me up with the "Mary Had a Little Lamb" thing!!

I am so glad to know I'm not the only person who has totally overplayed my Jill Scott cd.

As much as I love me some R&B, I am feeling some rap songs. Dead Prez's cd is really nice. I don't think too many people are ready for that, though. But I love it!! I am loving this whole Soulquarians movement: Common, the Roots, Jill Scott, etc. I think it's cool how they are all on this Soul movement thing and that they are all Aquarians.

I have Rhashan Patterson's first CD, with Stay Awhile, I Got to Get to Where You Are...etc. I heard a cut from his latest CD on the radio, also I saw him on the other BET Live with Rachel and that other guy...he looks different...

Jill Scott, for sure is the bomb
Yolanda, yes indeedy!
Carl Thomas
Maze
Angie Stone

Ya'll know what, I think that some people who like Monica over Brandy are thinking of the whole package to look at. I honestly cannot see how someone can say that Monica's voice is better than Brandy's...

Monica has a regular run of the mill, church choir voice, and she doesn't even have that much of a vocal range.

Did anyone catch her on the movie "love song" on MTV. Can we say that the musical arrangement was HORRIBLE!!! Was she trying to preserve her voice for something because I don't think she even took it up or down one octave...she sings sooo monotone.

Now Brandy on the other hand, she may not be as pretty as Monica, but sista can SANG!!!!

BUT>>>>>I respect everyone else's opinion...(we all know some can be a bit misguided at times

).

Yolanda Adam's cd is really great! Fred Hammond, Johnny Taylor, Wyclef-911, Isley Brothers, Lauren Hill, Kevon

I'm loving "Not Guilty" by Pastor John P. Kee. If you haven't gotten this CD yet, it's definitely a must-have!

Oooh, I am a R & B fan to the max!

I got R. Kelly's new one and I really like it! If my best friend really new how much I liked it she'll kill me (she claims that's her man). LOL.

I also just purchased Carl Thomas (I know I'm late) but I am digging him too! I like all the songs on his CD.

I like Chante Moore's new one too, (then again I like all her CD's). But, none of my friends is feeling me on it.

But my all-time favorite R & B singer has to be Maxwell. I own just about everything the brother ever made. If he came out with "Mary Had a Little Lamb" I'd buy that too! I had missed his concert when he came to Cali, and was too upset!
