um, I just meant to say Bilal is a great singer. I am NOT saying he's fine, I am NOT saying he's sexy, all I'm saying is I'm not 19 (DAYUM!!!!). But uh, yeah....Bilal is a wonderful performer! That's all there is to it.

He's not too hard on the eyes either.

k.

so much awesome in one place.

ok, i want to be a singer someday (how often have you heard that?!) and i listen to the greats of soul, you know. and today's music is really slacking, but i knew from the first time i heard him sing, i was like man, he's bad, and then when i saw his look and style, i felt that he is what is needed in r&b now: individuality. i mean that is why i cant front on the roots, lauryn hill, mos def, d'angelo, jazzyfatnastees, my dawg common, and yes, q-tip (his new video is hot; i think he wants to be on the okayplayer site! ha ha!), cause they are individuals in music.

the man's an individual, he's got that '70s soul thing going on, and there's no doubt he's gonna blow up!! my only question is when is that album droppin'? oh, and who agrees that he needs an official site here at okayplayer?! come on, now!! it's the next movement!!!!

. . . yeah in reference to that Love and Basketball thing. Bilal's track is called "Soul Sista" as far as i know. i can't wait for it to drop. peace and progress -Karas

someone said earlier that his album's dropping soon, but how do they know that?! where are you people finding this info, cuz i've looked everywhere and haven't found ish! that's why i'm saying he needs a friggin' web site! come on, now!
-b

AND WHAT IS HIS PART ON LWFC...HOOK 0N FILM CALLED PIMP..JUST GUESSING...

mother sistah always watchn(rubydee)

i aint a playa but i got some peeps up in ohio(boogieman)

i cockblocked the world so now they cant fuck me over(strange)

you don't know?! listen at the end of "funky for you", and you'll know who we're talking about! he also sings the hook of that song with jill scott, as well as the hook for "...pimp." i keep on hearing that he has a song on the love and basketball soundtrack, but i can't find any info on that outside of this site. and, of course, the big question is...WHEN"S THE ALBUM DROPPIN'???!!!
-b

SOMEONE PLEASE MOVE THIS TOPIC UP SO PEOPLE WILL ACTUALLY SEE IT AND MAYBE ANSWER SOME OF THESE DAMN QUESTIONS! COME ON, NOW, I WANNA KNOW!!
-B

came out tuesday (4/18)...supposedly. at least that's what it says on amazon.com.

the lucy pearl and bilal track make this one purchasable, but if you collect oldies, then you'll be happy. i just hope the movie is decent.

he has that booger sound! i don't remember what comedian said it but he described al green as having that "booger sound," and when i hear bilal i think of al green. so... booger sound! brother man can blow. now raina, u waited that long to start ya heart palpatating over this man. hmph mind started with the first note of the hook! makes me wish i could sing too! also goes to prove that dice and common are the exception to the beard rule! you gotta have a cold ass beard to be down.

is anybody else wanting a bilal and d'angelo collabo, possibly on b's cd? that would be the ish! obviously nobody knows when it's dropping (i've asked a million times), so i'll just continue waiting til someone does. and when's that love and basketball sd. dropping? someone said yesterday, but i haven't heard a thing about it. i guess i'll go check the store. peace!
-b

just bought the soundtrack, listening to bilal right now.

btw, the movie is fabulous...should go check it out.

peace

It is not very often you meet talanted people who are beyond down to earth. Bilal is not only one of the most talanted people i've had to pleasure to meet but also the man is funny as all get out! He's gonna go far in this music game. Keep your head up B and con't to do your thing.

My only question: when is the album gonna drop?

peace

Goldenlotus

who are you, goldenlotus? that must be a hell of a pleasure meeting this dude! and i'm feelin' your question, too. now, we're all just waiting for an answer! love and respect.

...lol. Made you look, didnt I Mr. Vuduchild?
Na, he's a real cool guy. I taught him how to sing back when he was a kid, but he couldnt cut it back then...so I told him to practice alot. I guess he did, because he's almost at MY skill level. I just wish yo...HE would have took control at the SOB's show last week...People didnt REALLY get a taste like they should have.
peace,

Is Bilal the same as Sons of Bilal?

I downloaded a Sons of Bilal song i found on FTP, entitled "Kevin Spacey" (if you listen to the song you'll understand the meaning), and its dope dope dope, the lyrics were well-thought out and the beat is this great jazzy tune... i can hook you up if you get at me... peace.
