did I miss something? neutral

what's this "Gospeldelic"

I always thought "Gospeldelic" was one of
the many imprints under his label

Pookie, Gospeldelic, Whiskey Slew
etc etc confused

oooooh okay I get it now
no the album is called Instant Vintage
but I can see how you'd mistake it...

"Gospeldelic" is just an imprint/novelty label
even though they got it stamped on the front cover
for the vinyl album... all big & stuff LOL

IMHO Instant Vintage is the classic among the bunch
this new record is not really even him
if you get what I'm sayin...
it's good, but it's more of a novelty album

I guess he felt the need to show
Amy Winehouse "how to do this hun"
I don't know...

Which one is "Gospeldelic"?

I thought Instant Vintage was pretty good, but a little long. Ray Ray wasn't bad, but there weren't any real standouts like on the former. From what I've heard so far of the new album, I may like it the most of all three studio albums. I saw him live last month here in NYC and the show was great, but I don't think he did any songs from Ray Ray.

DO. NOT. BOTHER. It's the worst self indulgence put to wax disbelief


hmmm

Isn't self-indulgence one of the traits of a 'genius' anyway?

Wow you guys really hate that album lol

Instant Vintage is awesome

thanx ya'll cool

in SupaFunky's defense
I will say this, I've never
got the urge to hear Instant Vintage
all the way through (in one listen)
I've done that maybe twice...

I always have to hear sections of it
and then onto the next album

still doesn't take away from the greatness though razz

Wow.....He got grammy nods off "Instant Vintage". "Ray Ray" isn't that bad. It's some tight joints off of there " Live w/o u, detroit girl, rifle love, chic vibe(tight bassline), i want u back w/teedra moses. It's not much different from instant vintage.

it goes without saying that
"Save Us" is my favorite from there
(I did my own interpolation of it
on my lates project... called
"The Taste (All Day Lollipops)") cool

"Live Without You" is great too
I love it when the beat changes

and everything Teedra touched was good
and then my Dawny showed up for "Rifle Love"

damn! am I gonna have to do
a compare/contrast with
InstantV & RayRay lol

btw... I found The Way I See It
on vinyl today online... I won't say where
cuz it's dirt cheap lol and I wanna get it LMFAO

If this is not a contender for traditional R&B album of the year (alongside Al's Lay It Down) then I'll have to go around and start blowing up some shit.

... Whew.... That is all.



He did press for it yesterday on the Tom Joyner Morning Show, it's phenominal
nod. Unfortunately, since I live overseas the release date will be much later for me neutral

I somehow thought for a second that this album would have a reminiscent feel like that of TTT's "House of Music". That was a hott album.

Yeah i dug his retro style on that album better than the motownesque
mood that he's in now. IMO i just think the al green/curtis mayfield mode
is more his speed than the motown mode.

I always liked the Still Ray song and it helps that my name is
Ray lol but the video for that song was cheap is hell.
It looked like saadiq shot the video behind an old abandoned
malt liquor store around crenshaw blvd.

Ahhh here it goes
