I'm happy (girlfriend), Tired (No Sleep), Excited (Knicks won), Anxious (Start new job), and I really dont give a shit (I dont), so I'll put in my .02 before I hit the pillow. First off, If the Tip song you all are talking about is the same one I'm thinking of, WOW....It REALLY sucks. I heard somebody play that shit at Hot 97, and I felt like I was gonna throw the radio against the wall. Did Tip Fall Off? Possibly....Maybe Almost Definitely. Is Tip a Sellout? Hell no...dont be a bunch of dicks. I see Tip showin love to his fans so many times when I'm chillin in the village, In Tower records showin peace to his fans, and up in Fat Beats, shoppin for new joints...stayin in touch with the real. For you people to say Tip Fell off, I understand...To say he sold out? Shit, I think He has the right to earn a few bucks. God only knows Tribe got screwed over by Zomba for the Low End Theory, and I dont even know about thier other joints....Let the man make his payday. He's 30 years old!<BR> Now, as for ?uest doing some experimental rock shit...DAMN, aint it obvious that the brother has a wide range of tastes?? If ?uestlove covering a rock song REALLY surprises anyone, I think you should take your head out of the toilet bowl, and put it a little closer to your CD player... ?uest is gonna be ?uest. Up to this point, I've enjoyed just about everything (to my knowlege)in which he had some form of creative input. However, if He did some Rock shit, and it TRUELY sucked...I wouldnt buy it. THATS RIGHT PEOPLE... Its possible. Just let the shit go Plastic, and purchase the next joint on the shelves. I know we all think of ?uest as fam, and he IS a hell of a cool guy, but when it comes to the BUSINESS of music, his job is to ENTERTAIN us. Thats what we buy his stuff for, and thats what the record label signed him for... To ENTERTAIN US, so THEY could Profit from it. While I dont see something of ?uestlove's being TRUELY wack (No pressure there man), I can honestly say that if it was, I wouldnt buy it..and I would hope that alot of you would act in the same manner...the manner thats most true to yourselves. Thats the only REAL way to let people know how you feel. <BR> You dont like Tips joint? Let him know.... How??? Keep your money on your pocket, and dont put it in his. He'll get the picture.<BR> Peace,<BR> Nazzie<P> "I'm so ahead of my time, my parents havent met yet"--Big L (RIP)
