Hay Jag how you doin? Loved the first album had me anticipating the second like a mug. The single you came out with is solid! As soon as the beat kicked on that little guitar bit I nearly broke my neck. And you was riding the beat nice no doubt. The subject matter I didn't think was you and one would automatically assume after such a brilliant first effort,you would have alot more autonnomy over what you want to portray.( that is provided you didn't look to write that track) I however don't hold that against you. Because at the end of the day you gots to eat.Espeacially if support from you company is marger. And so what if you make one or two club bangers. You have to create a diverse fan base in the business or you will sink. It's really not about sufferin for your passion if you don't have too. And as long as you are still getting the chance to convey yourself to a greater extent on your album anyway, then screw it get yours ma. You are still a real artist regardless. When D'angelo put out Left and Right he was speakin typically about what brothers have on there mind 70-90% of the time...SEX. It was a radio track for the females. But nobody busted his balls.R kelly's talkin bout puttin his key in girls ignition and suddenly people have forgoten he is a conviceted sex offender. ( And I ma not gone lie that includes me I AM FEELIN THE INGNITION JOINT AND I DON'T EVEN LISTEN TO KELLY THAT TOUGH!) The Roots Phrenology PUSSY GALOUR. You people was feelin that track and that is not a subject matter the Roots often tackle. They suppose to be straight up emcees talkin the battle that is hiphop. Because of the subject isolation you limit your fan base. And if you can include other subject matter that appeals to other sects of the mass while still conveying your flavour, then it has to be done. No one wants to hear 12 tracks worth of I love you and why'd you do me wrong.Ladies and gents life is not all about that. The soul is comprised of too many emotins to stay focused on one particular avenue of content. You gots to broaden the subject scope. The track had it's purpouse. One more drink presents exactly what alot of women think in the club. "I see this cat lookin from over there". "I know the only thing he has on his mind when he's lookin is to get me home to hit". "And he's gonna do whatever it takes and that includes buyin the lady a drink". Girls know this and girls take advantage of it. It is TRUTH! It is FACT! It is LIFE! And alot of dudes is stupid enough to do that. So all you unhappy heads just deal wit it. Beside you know when you get in the club and hear it yall gone move regardless. Can't deny the joint it's got funk it's a banga. I mean Saddique produced it! Common please stop it! I support you 100 and ten percent Jag. Do your thang.
