WELCOME TO THE 12TH PLANET. This blog was created as a forum for you to discuss personal and worldly issues. It serves as a vehicle for you to express oneself.
first time I saw that Roots video I fell in love with it... and that song is still my fave, but I love the live version they do with Jill Scott- have you heard it?? SOOOOOO good, I promise you!!
Did you know that Jill Scott wrote "You got me" for the Roots and that she actually sang on the original recording? She didn't have a recording contract at the time and nobody outside of Philly had yet heard of her, so her vocals were removed and the more well known Erykah Badu was replaced as the vocalist. It's a great song and Jill was real classy about it. That could have led to some beef between her the Roots and Erykah Badu..but it never did...As far as I know they all are still fam. That was a pure industry move (ie-mis-step, depending on how you look at it.)
The All Star game was a little bit of a letdown (What did you think?) but I did kind of dig the slam dunk contest and the Celebrity game. I gotta hand it to him.. T.O can ball a lil bit.. He was draining threes and running the floor. WHO KNEW?? lolol.
@ e I'm a HUGEJordan fan and I will admit that 'Nique was robbed in that dunk contest in '88.
@ Jaded Santana Yes! I've heard it. I love it, too. I have maaaaad love for Jill Scott.
Speaking of Jilly from Philly...I heard a rumor that she is knocked up...anybody else hear that?
@ Keith Yes! I'm familiar with that. Badu did well but I think Jill would've been better
The ASG weekend was aiiight. I don't think it was what it used to be. Ironically, I liked the game of H-O-R-S-E. The dunk contest HAS to get better. They need to get rid of the props and teammates. Just let em dunk. Nate Robinson stepped on a dude's back! How can that be counted? If that's the case, Dwight Howard should have jumped off a bed. LoL
@ Keith Did u peep the porn star? I dunno who she is. She like me! LoL
I love that Roots song. The Firm had a couple of goog jams! Phone Tap had such a hot beat. I still bump this jam! Jada to me is underrated. I've ALWAYS liked him and felt like he should have left the LOX long before he did. I'm loving his new shyt out!
your blog is very fine......
ReplyDeleteEverything but the last song, I rolls witcha.
ReplyDeleteNBA All Star weekend was kinda lame
They need the old rules back...and make it more appealing to ACTUAL stars like it use to be
eclectik-discussion.com
These are some good pick.
ReplyDeleteI never could get into Jada, and for some reason they like him down here.
@goooooood girl
ReplyDelete*crickets*
Thank you Ms Porn Star! LoL
@ e
The weekend was aiiiight. It could've been much better! I agree...please bring back the ORIGINAL dunk contest!
@cnlmike
Jada is nice. I always felt like he carried the Lox
AND they cheated Nique out of the title vs. Jordan in Chicago
