VIDEO REVIEWS: Please Stop Re-Making Hip Hop Songs...PLEASE?!
Rims bigger than car...hmmmm...
My ongoing bout with insomnia has me watching videos on Yahoo! Music. For some reason.
Worst new song/video
"I Need Dubs" by Master P
If the rims-n-tires phenomenon weren't already ridiculous enough before this video...do you really need diamonds and other "precious" gems installed into the metal of your rims? Really? There are journalists broke in San Gabriel, P. Bottom line - I'm not happy when rappers take old songs and bastardize them. LL Cool J's "I Need Love" was the pinnacle of Hip Hop simping. To take such quasi-romance and update it with lyrics referencing twenty-inch rims and tires a/k/a "Dubs" should be a crime. Punishable by having a doll made in the rappers likeness, attired in an army suit, that says "uuuggghhhh" when you squeeze it. Oh, shit, that already happened to Percy Miller bleems ago. Oh well. Shit still sucks the big one. COLD WACK

Best new song/video
"I Ain't Heard of That" by Slim Thug, Bun B and Pharrell "4Real" Williams
YES! I love the Neptunes sound. I love UGK. This is like a musical Reese's Peanut Butter cup. Two great tastes that taste great together. Houston and Virginia Beach, now you know you're in trouble. The visuals only serve to improve the enjoyment of the song. I love the split-screen action. Feelin Phrll's bling-grill. Pharrell look good. I heart Bun B. If you ain't screamin FREE PIMP C, then what is U saying? Slim Thug is my least favorite of the three, but he'll pass in a mad rush. Yes, they're talkin about how they don't pay for women to get their hair and nails did, and that they instead prefer to put women on the hoe stroll while they sip hot cocoa or sizzirrup somewhere until it's "bitch betta have my money time". Still, as guilty pleasures go, 4Real and Bun B rank high, high, high on the list. TASTY.

We Artists on the blackwallstreet roaster are angry that you are not taking it with 50 Cent to where its supposed to be
I am sorry as your close blood associate I am the one breaking this sh*t down .reason being as on of your artist, on your roaster I don’t want to be what Spider Loc became to 50 cent and G unit. Just a hype-man come body gourd. from the things happening sh*t there is no way Blackwallstreet will land the Lucrative deal the board members ( phat rat, G –ride and fase}have been pushing for.
Man 50 has done messed up the movement .It was all cool when dre was the one in full responsibility of your career .Call me a snitch or a betrayer but I am a man and I can stand on my two legs when sh*t aint right somewhere .Its either 2 ways .I say it the way I feel like and the G unit offices see the essence of letting BWS movement do its thing on its own or you just drop me from you roaster ,and if the later happens I will take it as a man .I believe I got the talent and what it takes to make it. And no I aint bragging, I am still BWS Person to the bone. I cant change that , I cant erase my BWS tattoo on my arm.
Although Jimmy Iovine is the guy to blame but we know its all good with him .Its that snitch 50 cent with his f*cking big ass mouth who should take the shots. We know he got the highest bargaining power than anyone now in interscope as an artist promoter, reason being dre and eminem are now more focused in production than touring etc all in all 50 cent is the guy running interscope now he got interscope on lock. Most decisions made by the Jews in the higher offices are leaning towards 50’s thoughts .Dre is a high class producer he gets more money for producing for artists outside interscope that is in other majors like def, Columbia etc .than he gets for producing for an artist who after all he needs to advertise and buy the artists publishing .Subsequently artists outside interscope for them to get dre beats they need to break contract rules and that’s through interscope meaning more money for interscope ,why you think dre gets $90000 to sell beats outside interscope. Its like half of that goes to interscope and if you check almost all hip hop and R&B artists have a dre’s beat in their album the same thing goes for the movie soundtracks
So interscope automatically laid dre back cos this is dre’s crest year. busta rhymes,E.V.E. detox and 50 cents movie soundtrack are all in his shoulders and don’t forget Dre is still negotiating doing an album with Jojo ,from sources who work at aftermath he is definitely going to produce 2 singles from her upcoming album and lastly there will be dre beats for almost every artist who is who in hip hops and R&B arena. So with that said Iovine business wise thought it would be safe to offload dre the task of promoting and maintaining Game’s career and gave it to 50 cent. Of course he has time to promote artists as he is no kind doing any production work, he is also trying to promote his next album “massacre”.
Actually 50 cents album was supposed to drop in stores at the end of april ,so as to give the game ample time precisely 4 months to do his numbers and go multiplat like hell. but look what 50 does ,right after aftermath releasing THE HIGHER as the first official single and radio in all states playing it like the new big single the like of 50cents “in da club” this b*tch ass Person calls a meeting with interscope CEO’s and shows them fake ass complaints from radio executives ,websites and returnees{if you don’t know them tis are workers who are assigned by major labels to search for the feedback from th streets, clubs and mere concerts .nowonder you you get latest slangs being rapped by 30 something year old rappers like Nas and Jay etc even if the are intouch with the streets nomore} whom ofcours he has has paid that fans aren’t feeling The Game .so the conclusion becomes that with the budget {such big as hell} already given to the Game .he aint gonna blow the f**k outta records as expected i.e this is going to flop like none other before .so 50 presented his plan that he is going to back him up and cos 50 is already big the mass will start digging into Game thus buying his album .so after 2 weeks How we do {fresh 83} is sent to all outles ,radios and mixtape Dj’s as the first official video to be made single ,ofcourse with money getting to outlets pockets. How we do which was supposed to be the third single precisely in May when Game has become the new breakthrough artist and 50 cent with a hot album on the deck so it would have appeared as one of the greatest collabs between a newyork king and a Westside King .As planned before Games album was bring west coast back to the map so the first video was supposed to have only westcoast love and all things associated with westcoast but did that happen ?50 puts less money in the making of the video with no cali love as expected .
Bottomline is that Interscope was focused in making The Game blow. these are very learned people and right to do businessmen .They always create a monster after every three –two years ,check out 2-pac after him came eminem after eminem 50 cent so they were supposed to create/build an artist with an Image and ego and bring him to the limelight after the fans are tired of the previous big thing. Game you personally explained this to me they do this to capture new fans mostly teenagers in the bracket age of 16-19 who three years previously weren’t digging hip hop as they were young and by then parents are in full control of their lives and now have the freedom of choosing what the they want and according to analysis they become hip hop fans due to new debut artists .Ok let me not enter into that, its more delicate than I can conquer
Where was I at? Yes so when 50 realizes that his 15 minutes of bought fame is up and that Game is going to dominate 2005 the same year 50 should drop an album he did his dirt business forced false advertisements that his album is coming out on valentines day. the interscope office are worried and before the can bring 50 to the table this Person 50 outdoes then and emails to Dj’s radios etc Disco Inferno as his new official single with money of course .50 knows how to play his game ,he knows how to deal with this corporate U.S.A. Why you at hot 97 plays ja rules newyork with only rules verse ,why hot 97 interviewed 50 and he was talking sh*t about Irv and The Inc but angie was preventin Irv from talking sh*t about 50 the following day.so by the time interscope comes on table with 50 cent .billboard charts who also eats from 50’s pcket has made disco inferno climb to top within in less than a week .this then caused interscope to succumb from 50’s pressure but still they pushed his album to March otherwise interscope was not that willing to sponsor and give money for promotion for massacre that early after extensively marketing the Game in January and February .
So March which was also supposed to be The Games month cos it was the month which “dreams” was supposed to premier and by the way Dreams is the most expensive single in the whole album its cost is even much expensive than some albums which drop in def jam and Columbia. It very expensive cos of the production ,sampling and the video is just banana’s .Its a mini movie .For sure it will win a V.M.A. atleast dre got controls of that after complaints from Dj quick and Westcoast Veterans .The Bws is representing to the fulliest in the video .I make a face appearance, the whole Bws crew is upthere most bloods you saw in the Dvd are there .there is a tribute to the Late 4 cent a.k.a. Billboard [R.I.P]
So we was cool here like ok Game is a business man he always say they **** me up again but hey they’ve in the Game longer so they have a lot of connection and respect so trying to beef with 50 his boss is like fighting his career and the whole industry, which is the truth though.but the Game got into an argument with 50 after he dropped candyshop with full support of interscope where as the game has not dropped his second single video ,then 50 made the a video of candyshop and releases it ,the same time Game is getting into the Game when he is jus right about picking up,this situation is called “SHINE CUT QUICK” the same way Ja rule came out with clap back when 50 cent was slatted to drop G UNITS album beg for mercy .With that said its not the end.50 cent makes sure he is the one getting paid and getting shine from the second video of The Game “hate it or love it” where in this music world have you ever seen this 50 on first 2 videos of The Game .it appears as if The Game same as G unit is a group consist of 2 artist famous 50 Cent and an unknown westcoast artist. This hasn’t gone well with us artist here at BWS .ask any Trl Fan he/she will tell you how we do is 50 cents single .and in hate it or love it 50 stills the shine cos he talks about his mother being a lesbian etc. so once again that is like 50’s single.
By the time fans will come to know who the f**k the game is will be in “dreams “ and I am sure by then interscope will be promoting 50 cent as he will be in the market also Gwen will drop her last single and Olivia will be breaking the chart records cos by all means possible 50 will make sure she drops in May thus promotional money will be directed to other sources and dreams wont get the shine it deserves it will be just a good video with less rotations just like “Many men” had .with that said us artists who were supposed to shine when game is on the picture just like 50 cent back in 2003 with Lloyd banks and Young buck .Damn games plan was also to make a group album you know N.W.A. just like Beg for Mercy .it was supposed to feature upcoming westcoast artist and producers Newjerzy Dj Quik thus westcoast would have come back to the map in full force
Wow, someone had a lot of shit on their mind.
Anyways, I was up watching UnCut and saw MP's I need dubs video and fell the fuck out. I couldn't believe what I was hearing! This negro said he brought something for his car before he brought a house. Just ignant.
Hilarious. The first post was absolutely too long to read, dude. Something about 50 and the Jew in big offices, wtf?
Anyway, Had to dip in on this convo. I consider myself very intelligent and reasonable but rims are like my weakness. I love them shits and damn, don't let them spin, OMG.
When I lived in NM, there was this Vato chick in the South Valley with a money green old school Chevy Suburban with these rims sooo sick, I used to feel feverish when she whipped past. Her rims have like rhinestones or some shit in them and when they catch the light, it looks like Vegas.
When I meet my soulmate, the jet black drop top 760li, I'ma have to bling my shit out too. I'ma have canary yellow diamonds and emeralds and mother-of-pearl all in my rins.
The only problem with all that will probably be, well, parking.
If you didnt like "i need dubs" i hope you never see the video for "i need drugs" by necro. that video puts this one to bed for how bad it is.
