Music Head Wrote:always loved Wilson, yet a best of is all I have
i have 5 studio albums and a best of set...really dont think the best of set justifies his output as there are so many great songs on his studio albums, but at least his best of set is still filled with quality material

Ere mela mela-Mahmoud Ahmed
One of the major figures in African music. This guy's got soul, major soul, enough to humble the likes of Marvin Gaye or Al Green. The only other person I've heard with this musch soul is Alemayehu Eshete, another popular African music
If you're wondering why I'm posting this here and not the world music section, that's because I on't believe world music is a legitamite genre. This is soul that happens to be from Africa

I was considering committing suicide the other day. How foolish, I would have never had the chance to hear this. Now I can die happy

I think I bought this on the strength of 3 Feet High And Rising. Such a good album and this one doesn't even come close. But I didn't know I didn't like it this much. Four of seventeen tracks get a like. That's pretty bad. I do give the guys credit for their use of samples. Don't think they are as well known as the ones from 3 Feet High, but that one generated some lawsuits. This is the groups fourth album and the first to be produced by them. Could that be the difference? Two of those featured artists things here with Mos Def and Common showing up. I'll give the worst to the opener, the 2 1/2 minute Intro, and the best to the closer, Sunshine. The album did make it to #13 on the overall chart with singles of Itzsoweezee and Stakes Is High only in the dance clubs. Went off these guys after this one, and their debut remains the best for me.
I DO NOT LIKE THIS ALBUM
Worst - Intro
Best - Sunshine
and yes y'all
you are about to build witness
from the lands of Long Island
takin' you to the sky's survival
I am your captain, ain't no lie
on this endless joruney
to invisions, to brouden your outer visions
to where you never been before
it's just a one night trip to love
sun shinin' forever, and forever sun shines
yo, leaving lasting impressions like cuts to flesh
be that crew from the five one six point of view
with skills so tight, they the rhymes of a vigina
them clits will turn into a diamond, the level of rhymin'
pressure comes from lessor forms than me and my man
and we go back like life created from um, specks of sand
and there's money to be made 'cause cacaussians are paid
only brothers who rhyme, seek bounce and catch balls
Plug 1, with them rhymes makin' your heart stall
like them girls when you in they room when they man calls
it ain't nothin' but the thing Oneder Why can bring
as we come to the bring the pain everyone will sing
De La is the crew that you must hear, but please don't rush the stage
'cause even though them stakes are really high, we're really not here to race
we're just here to move your mind and soul with propetuated ease
it's just about the show until it's time to go, and get with the young ladies
I'm on travellin' to places that the eye can't see
but kinder, cause yo' strife don't mean a thing to me
throwin' me criminal looks, y'all need to get in the books
and drop some water in your melon, 'stead of actin' like a felon
aiyo son, who you tellin'? I'd make a mil if it was up to me
but since it ain't I teach my seed to bank hard
and than God, I smoke a substance of a different kind
catch me trippin' on earth when I'm high off sunshine
down right to dirt, Oneder Why makes it work
with access to talent like cacaussins to yellow cabs
with an Arab driver
I liven parties with marvelous confiction
ain't no fricition when life claims them victims who be ??? some dried up funds
best believe that the life is trife
'casue the gun made a man outta pussy's from around my way
who usually wouldn't have a fuckin' thing to say
last year's hard rocks are now petrified boulders
and L.I.'s finest is movin' yo' necks at shows
the anthem of ths guy has a place in yo' eye
so you can be blessed to see in 3d double-e
De La is the crew that you must hear, but please don't rush the stage
'cause even though them stakes are really high, we're really not here to race
we're just here to move your mind and soul with propetuated ease
it's just about the show until it's time to go, and get with the young ladies
