I'm definitely hearing "Sensual Seduction" and "I Won't Tell" way, way more than "The Boss" (and I've heard "Maybach Music" a couple times). So these sales numbers kinda blow my mind. Not saying radio is the best indicator, but still.

I think Joe and Snoop have been releasing an album every 18 months for so long that one's bound to get lost in the shuffle now and then, whereas Ross is still kinda new and, as misguided as they may be, there are probably plenty of people who think of a new album from him as a big deal, must-have purchase right now. I was really hoping he'd disappear after Def Jam failed to make him the new Jeezy overnight, but after 2 years of Khaled posse cut ubiquity that's sadly what he might be now.
Joe makes dope albums sometimes (especially Loyalty and Me Myself & I) but this one's just OK for me.

i like the snoop song life of the party a lot.
joe going miami seems like a real sad little indicator for how much NYC has fallen off, which kinda bums me out.
― M@tt He1ges0n, Thursday, 20 March 2008 15:14 (sixteen years ago) link
yeah, "Life Of Da Party" is kinda awesome. it weirds me out how Mistah F.A.B. looks older than Snoop or Too Short in the video, though, I swear that guy is secretly 55 years old or something.
the funny thing about Joe being all "switch to south paw" is that his albums still have more hard east coast beats than most other NY rappers. good FJ profile in the Voice this week with a real LOL headline: http://www.villagevoice.com/music/0812,fat-joe-vs-the-volcano,381266,22.html

his nickname, Joey Crack, comes not from the rock, but from an old graffiti nickname based on the unfortunate visibility afforded by his low-slung pants.

The Elephant in the Room is the closest thing you'll find to sure-bet profitability in hip-hop this year.

in all honesty though I wonder how much he makes per copy sold from Imperial and if it's a better rate than he'd get w/ Koch
― Alex in Baltimore, Thursday, 20 March 2008 15:56 (sixteen years ago) link
i don't even remember reading about a single off of it
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 20 March 2008 15:59 (sixteen years ago) link
"I Won't Tell" (feat. J. Holiday) is currently at #37 on Hot 100, #12 on Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs, and #5 on Hot Rap Tracks
― Alex in Baltimore, Thursday, 20 March 2008 16:07 (sixteen years ago) link
but it didn't get any burn on Discobelle, though, so I can see how you might have missed it.

yeah, I just heard "Skew It On The Bar-B" in the club the other night and was reminiscing over it, so it blew my mind when I heard that new song on the radio the other day. funny that Big Boi finally dropped a single after promising there'd be one on New Year's Eve.
― Alex in Baltimore, Friday, 21 March 2008 13:38 (sixteen years ago) link
Love the Isley's just popping up. It's no "Skew It On the Bar-B" harmonica break, but it's nice all the same.
― matt2, Friday, 21 March 2008 13:53 (sixteen years ago) link
It's "Rosa Parks" with the harmonica break, to be pedantic.
― The Reverend, Friday, 21 March 2008 15:46 (sixteen years ago) link

Both Outkast members kill this, Raekwon is kind of meh. I like how they bring back the "BREAK!"
― The Reverend, Friday, 21 March 2008 16:33 (sixteen years ago) link
Sometimes I think Big Boi has never dropped a bad verse in his entire life.
― M@tt He1ges0n, Friday, 21 March 2008 16:39 (sixteen years ago) link
andre's best verse in forever? it's like a solid minute +, too.

A 12 year-old boy was taken into custody Wednesday night for throwing a rock through the windshield of Soulja Boy’s bus. Why? The kid told arresting officers, "I hate Soulja Boy."

putting Raekwon on your internet buzz single is not a good look

I've never wanted to clown you for having a Juelz Santana quote for a screenname more than right now, and I pretty much want to do that every time you post.

go for it man, you sound like a tightass, maybe loosen up a bit or something

oh ok that song is awesome!
raekwon is top 10 all time
― M@tt He1ges0n, Monday, 24 March 2008 20:04 (sixteen years ago) link
hey alex
who's this P-Bodi guy? i listened to a song cuz i thought it would be sean price, but it's pretty good. he's from baltimore i guess?
― M@tt He1ges0n, Monday, 24 March 2008 20:05 (sixteen years ago) link
i mean, yeah raekwon is the shit but he's not exactly gonna do Big Boi any favors in '08 as far as buzz goes...I think the song is awesome and obviously I loved "Skew it On The Bar-B" (and still do) but I would have liked to see a different direction to say the least
― Preview of the Matrix 12, Monday, 24 March 2008 20:08 (sixteen years ago) link
I have honestly never heard of P-Bodi ever, which is kinda saying something. looks like he's done songs with some guys I know, though. (xpost)
