Why did y'all decide to end this thread?
MILLER,Where are you?
I want to hear more stuff from you guyz! Fire on.

Thanks to Jerrymania,hiphop can only be hiphop and notin else!That stupid,wack Rugged man has only succeeded in makin a lot of Nigerians drift over to a wack niche he deliberately carved for himself,"Naija hiphop". That guy is real crap!The message in "Ruggedy Baba" is nonsense!Who made him a rap judge,to tell us the way we should rap!
@ Gbade X,I always feel ur contributions,u dey make sense!
I wont talk much on this,this thread is not for hiphop heads!!!!!!!!!!

@ Ruudie
Thanks for Disagreeing with Makin on Najee not being a jazz artiste!
@ Makin
I think you should listen to Najee's "Heart Like Mine".When you do,you wont tell me he ain't a jazz artiste.
And do we define music by what the artiste is known for or the musical piece itself?Some songs of Yanni's like "Adagio in C Minor"and "Tribute" can be called Classical,while his "Dance with A Stranger" is undoubtedly Jazz! Some of Billy Vaughn's songs are called Easy Listening e.g "Sail Along Silvry Moon",while a whole lot of his other songs are generally accepted as Jazz.Like Miller said,Jazz is so broad,so much so that you cant really claim to define it accurately, and it just has to be dynamic,like other genres;so I dont want to hear y'all claiming that real Jazz was done only by those aged old timers!Times must, and always do change!Jazz lovers love to hate Kenny G,but I cant deny loving him for his own unique flavor,his Soprano Sax sounds lioke it was constructed for him alone!
No one has mentioned Boney James?
Abeg I no wan vex,so I no wan make another person call Enya name for here,abeg OOOh!

@ Miller
Appreciate your effort @ trying to broaden my idea of what jazz should be!Yeah Joshua Redman's okay,as for the old school guys you called,I grew up listening 2 them cos those were my dad's favorites,especially John Coltrane,but you didnt call Billy Vaughn nor Herb Albert.Billy Vaughn's my best old timer,particularly his album,"An Old Fashioned Loved Song",I really want to have that album,but I cant even find it on sites like Amazon etc.I need tips on how to get it. It was released in 1972,no.6025 under Paramount Records.I ned you to solve this if you can.I'll try listening to the few of those contemporary jazz artistes you named which I havent heard! Later man.

Yeah Jazz lovaz on Nairaland ought to keep this thread alive!
Now i'm going to list a few of my best ever jazz tracks and artistes.
       
     

Yanni-Nightingale,On Sacred ground,Playing by heart,Waltz in 7/8,Written on the wind,In the mirror,One man's dreams,Felitsa,Nostalgia,To the one who knows,Tribute,Rites of passage
Kenny G-Alone,End of the Night,Havana,Songbird,Jasmine flower,One more time,Spanish Nights
Najee-Day by day,Heart like mine,Gina,Love is in need of love today

Jazz is my life!And it is so addictive so much so that you wont want to hear anything else,
Yanni drives me crazy,Dave Koz is it,Kenny G is a genius,Grover Washington jnr. is a gift,Najee is d bomb,, inexhaustible, i really love jazz!

Establish rap monopoly is the reason i'm born,
I got d D&C flowz for emcees yet unborn!
D Venom

I xcavate hiphop fossils,regenerate em 4 fuels,and burn fake ass emcees.

Ur pain's my pleasure,i'm like a sado-masochist,
my kind of leisure,is when i'm 4king wit you;
I sit you when I come thru,you cant stand my heat,
be oozing like dirty toilets though,U ain't shit,
You's a lil kid,trembling when you hearing my name,
Stackin PS2 Cds but you ain't got game!
D Venom


EVEN WHEN I DIE,I'LL MAKE MONEY AS A GHOST WRITER
D VENOM

I love to flirt a lot but I cant say if its healthy or not.It just depends on the people involved,and being able to stop things from going out of hand,although,that to me is the essence of flirting;things getting uncontrollable.Just try as much as possible to avoid a showdown!As for me,I cant live without eye contacts,with girls I think are soo cute,and unfamiliar,It keeps me going!

@Trendy
U surprise me in every possible way!I wouldnt have guessed you'll like Mobb Deep(I've got a faint idea of ur kind of person)
@ slimghost
With ur good taste of rap,like mine(u know the Hov.Nas thing),you shouldnt even proclaim anything G-unit as ill at all!
The Game was d best thing that ever happened to them,but he's gone;thanks to 50's beef.
Only thing I like about them is d Gee,gee,gee,G unit which 50 always screams,thats all!
Their lyrics are bullshit,plus they ain't got attitude!

@Trendy,
I'll never leave you alone!I'm crushing you badly 4 such a good sense of humour you've got.
You gave me a real good laugh and you're paying for it!

More songs that kill me in the sack are,
Sade-No ordinary love
PM Dawn-I'd die without you
Kenny G-End of the night

How dare y'al compare the RED DEVILS to any other club in England?!!!!Let alone Arsenal!The Gunners are good no doubt,but comparing both teams is like comparing Brazil to Nigeria just cos we once won them.Man U guys are and always will be chairmen.Gunners are and will always be pretenders to the throne!Past records clearly prove it,and of course the present league table says it all. RED DEVILS 4 LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Injection-OST Mission Impossible II,the song that was playing when Nyah injected herself with Chimera.

@Trendy,
 Even if Bankole cant get you,I'll surely get you cos u can never be far away,and it was u who first tried to smart-up on this thread.
     u can only make luv to Ekwe if you're banging Daddy-showkey.or Stereo man himself.
     I Bet thats one of your fantasies!Prove me wrong.

@Trendy,
I expect you to be a Warri gir.Na wa 4 you oh,na so the tin go dey pain you-gaga

Some songs just help you get lost when you're doin your thing! You even find yourself moving to the rhythm.

My best are:
112 - Sweet love, All my love
Donell Jones - Guilty by suspicion
Shai - If I ever fall in love again
Joe - And then
Madonna - Frozen

Ether-Nas
Takeover-Jayz
Look in my eyes-Benzino

@ Slimghost
Yeah,Nas spits knowledge.Now tell me what u've done wit the knowledge you gained from Nas!
If your idea of knowledge is someone filling you wit bullshit about what happens on d streets of Queens Bridge,
you can as well go to AJ or Festac to "enrich" your horizon of street knowledge.Besides,there was nutin spectacular about that long narration you sent.If you really want knowledge,then you should read on Sigmund Freud's works,better still,you can read on Mysticism!

This comparison is an impossible one,I live for two kinds of music,
JAZZ/CLASSICAL and RAP.
And the two of them are genres so far apart,so I cant say I prefer any!
When i'm not playin Jayz or Nas or Jadakiss,then I must be playin Tchaikovsky or Yanni or Kenny-G,Billy Vaughn etc.
I also cant live witout rap,cos thats my source of inspiration,being an emcee.Plus,goodrap requires a lot of creativity,intelligence.No one should dare call rap nonsense,Its easier to write 20 R&B verses,than a single good rap verse!
RESPECT RAPPERS!

I luv beef when its raw,its filled wit bloodstains,
when I say i'll 4k ur style up,its good as slain!

Impossibility is unreality,wherever I abide,
I bridge d gap btwn wishes and horses,and then I ride!

@Slimghost
I tot I asked for any of Nas's punchlines that measures up to Hov's!
Nas is gangsta, no doubt,but we judge a rapper in terms of lyrical prowess,and not street fame.Nas's best track ever is 1mic,d song is d bomb,but I want you to tell me what so lyrical about d track,d whole track was just a narration,wit each verse being a cresccendo,dats just it.And you arent d only one who has all Hov's albums,so u cant claim 2 know more about him than i do!Go and listen to the Dynasty album,u'll know better!Hov is d man,no questions.
Plus all his album intros are so so deffff.U dont know what you are saying,rather y'all standing for Nas dont really mean to.After arguing,a fella once agreed that he sides Nas only because he's Nigerian.Maybe thats ur problem.I still stand.
HOLA HOVITO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is to jigga haters on nairaland like slimghost and sjayking.
You guys just lyk to bluff about jayz being thick just in terms of wealth,bullshit!
Tell me which of Nas lyrics matches the following punchlines HOVA churned into the game.


I SELL ICE IN D WINTER,I SELL FIRE IN HELL,I AM A HUSTLER BABY,I
SELL WATER TO A WELL!,
U DONT KNOW

I'M SO FAR AHEAD OF MY TIME,I'M BOUT TO START ANOTHER LIFE,LOOK
BEHIND U,AM ABOUT TO PASS U TWICE.BACK 2 D FUTURE,GOT 2 SLOW
DOWN 4 D PRESENT,I'M FAST,NIGGAS CANT GET PAST MY PAST!,
HOVI BABY

There are more where that came from. Nas is just about storytellin and narrating.
As 4 ETHER,u all know that replies are hotter than the initial diss,so stop makin a fuss of that.
Plus Jigga's got attitude. stop blaspheming,u can compare Nas to Mode9 or D VENOM(ME).

damn too appalling!a scene would be filled with so much passion and will be followed by just a short lip kiss.we all know that "i luv u" when passionately said,comes wit a french kiss(a really deep one).we need 2 make love scenes real.Then,love making in Nigerian movies is more of comedy than d reality it should be,that has 2 change!
