Donell Jones - Where I Wanna Be (Appreciation Thread)

[Akata Man Bromo]

Do you mind if I take this seat right here cause you're sittin alone

If you sippin on chriss girl im buying

I remember having my first crush when this dropped

@trilldealbaby you're a 90's baby and not like me you might not know about this funk

 

[Yehuda]

Best R&B album of 1999 if you ask me.



My shyt.

 

[Trill Bellamy]

Yo im so dead off this shyt breh a damn song tho

she hit me with the "you dont have to delete and hide things from me"

and im like "huh?"

and now shes on a "nevermind" spree....

yo i cant believe i did her so wrong by having a good day and listening to a song that dropped when i was 13

 

[DredScott]

the title track is one of those cuts that just hits you hard when you the female drama comes ...and "u know what's up remix" is the complete opposite and will have you feeling like a straight apex predator with much swag ready to groove and pounce on your prey.

 

[JayGatsby]

when they say music is powerful this album should be the perfect example

the lyrics really hit home

 

[RAW_SPK]

This joint…man listen….

 

[YeahN1ggaImmaLurker!]

Classic album.. This and Chicago 85 by Dave hollister and tp2.com are some of my favorite r&b albums

 

[re'up]

'U Know Whats Up' was always my favorite since it played constantly on the local rap/r&b station in 99....classic 90's r&b, classic middle school music.

and lol @ dude saying he wrote a verse of this to a girl....I see you same age as me, r&b was that powerful in that era, almost everyone was listening to R&B heavy, little 7th and 8th graders, my ass hadn't even kissed a girl yet, listening to highly sexual shyt like Ginuwine, R Kelly, Joe, Next....some kids were having sex already, some girls even had kids lol.....

and I never wrote a girl an r&b verse, but i def. though about it, and stayed up late with 112 and Jagged Edge, Donell Jones playing, thinking about whatever girl I had on my mind.

 

[NigerianDonDada]

Classic Album. One of my fav albums of all time. They don't make R&B albums like this more

U Know What's Up
Shorty (Got Her Eyes On Me)
Where I Wanne Be
Have You Seen Her....
This Luv
All Her Love... The way the song starts up
He Won't Hurt me
I Wanna Love You

U Know What's Up with Left Eye


I fukked with his "Life Goes On" album heavy too. "Journey of A Gemini" album was cool too.

@trilldealbaby you're a 90's baby and not like me you might not know about this funk

I'm a 90'sbaby young nikka and all dat
but like I said my aunt and uncles kept records in the crib/car
I was surrounded by the piff from go
those throwback jams be the most potent especially when it's some old shyt she ain't never heard before
thank the og's for throwing so many alley oops for me in my youth

memories of picking up a shawrty and all you had to do was spark up and let her sit passenger side as all these ill sounds marinate her p*ssy for a young gawd guaranteed easy kill especially because most other nikkas ain't driving nothing yet

the power of a luxury vehicle over young broke bytches is unbelievable
gotta get that chickenbox benz with the amg kit


miss having no responsibilities spending cake that ain't mine being able to floss off petty cash*

 

[Champ_KW]

Last great R&B album in my opinion. Nothing.....I mean nothing, is wrong with this album. So many moods, emotions, and vibes yet they all blend perfectly.....let the liquor tell it. My boys and I get into debates all the time over which CD was better between this and Confessions. In my mind, Confessions never grabbed me like this CD did.

 

[richtree]

this bringing me back ..a goddamn solid album from top to bottom.
its true ..they don't make it like they used to

 

[Barry Sanders]

Sitting at the light she pulled up on my right
Looking in the mirror making sure her shyt was tight
I know she felt me watching but was scared to look my way
I know she wants to look, but I think I got her shook
Under pressure, don't know what to do
She's got two cuties with her and I got my peoples too
She put it in one, stepped on the gun, and made a U
Looked inside, gave me a smile, then she blew, what am I gonna
do

 

[I love Latina women]

of course, classic album. 5 stars, dap and +rep @BronxFleezy

 

[I love Latina women]
