Let's Honor the Movie/Scene That Made it Possible.

The legendary John Singleton directed the legendary Omar Epps to fake love make with legendary Tyra Banks at arguably her most beautiful in legendary Higher Learning movie, to the legendary Raphael Siddiq singing a legendary 90s R&B hit.



Damn 90s directors were savage, she had to do lovemaking scene on 1st day at age of 19.

Ray Wiggins the gawd :wow:. Don't really care for the Wale song but I'm glad he's seeing some success again. Talented dude.

Yep. Raphael Saadiq - Wikipedia

Lupe needs to pay attention and grab a quick hit. Wale and Lupe have same delivery, just one is more enigmatic with the lyrics....if he just "Dumb It Down" for a quick hit like this it would be good for the brand. This his most recent track, which I think is great and is good for the radio, but want get promoted or requested like that...

Or even Nas "No Bad Energy" or "War Against Love" should be on radio

The 90s would make it happen :snoop:

Why is it that Wale gets as much hate as he does?

Wale's essentially Joe Budden if Budden was into wrestling instead of gossip :manny:. He rubs people the wrong way because he openly laments how his music is received and how his talents aren't respected to the degree he thinks they should be. He's a talented rapper but he's a fukked up dude and he's not cosmetically fukked up like The Weeknd or Future where all the demons get packaged nicely for public consumption.

Women want the sort of demons on wax that put the speaker and the listener on edge, where there's a danger and almost an excitement to it and young dudes want to bump music and speak from that perspective, they want to be the danger. Wale just wallows and that hurts his ability to connect with people as a product. All most people can do is somewhat admire his talents and people aren't conditioned to admire someone's abilities unless they're told by other people that the person in question is special and nobody's championing Wale like that.

I was talking about Wale. I don't care for the On Chill song but I'm glad Wale is seeing some success again. I keep up with Saadiq, I bought Jimmy Lee.
