Yeah. Didn't watch that one. I did watch the Mary J./Cube/Missy/Nelly/Fiddy Teeths one. Mary J.'s was nice as was Cube's and Missy's. Nelly's and Fiddy's left a lot to be desired... | |

Isn't it better to do a BTM years after an artist has come out? see what all they accomplished?
I just recently watched one on Stink & DM that covered tons of ground of there career.Except NAS But this is just a remaster of his old one i guess? And why are half of these mofos criminals Pistols sounded like "Fuck off," wheras The Clash sounded like "Fuck Off, but here's why.."- Thedigitialgardener

Right? I remember when the show had a liitle more variety in it's artists that they featured. Now it's all hiphop bullshit. I'll probably still watch though. | |

I don't like that they continue to do current artists just as a marketing tool for their new album.
I miss the days when people like M.C. Hammer, Vanilla Ice, Leif Garrett, etc. were on the show. JERKIN' EVERYTHING IN SIGHT!!!!! | |

Not interested in one of these, this series needs to end. "We went where our music was appreciated, and that was everywhere but the USA, we knew we had fans, but there is only so much of the world you can play at once" Magne F | |

Yep pretty much... I would really be interested in Nas though. His a very unappreciated influential rapper and his story has yet to be read.
But like others have said... they really need to end these series.... | |

I won't be suprised if TVOne does an "Unsung" or a "Life After" on him..... | |

But will they do it any justice though? I dunno Ive thought the Behind the Music episodes were okay.... I agree they need to cover better artists but this is VH1 were talking about.... its not ever going to be on the level of Unsung... they mostly cater to what is current., theyve ALWAYS been that way...

This crap is current? Wow... Can't wait for the Behind The Music on Flim Flam | |

Nas...Brandy...maybe the Game
Who the heck cares about the other 3. | |
- E-mail - orgNote - ![]() |
which sucks....because when BTM started, they were based on 70's and 80's artists who were no longer current. I remember MTV or VH1 had "Driven" focused on the current artists. [Edited 3/14/12 18:32pm] | |

YOUR RIGHT... They did use to focus on older artists but that slowly changed... Its been years since they have done a proper deserving BTM. | |
- E-mail - orgNote - ![]() |
Brandy & Nas, I can understand because they have been in the music industry for more than a decade.

That's what i was saying! makes no sense why T-Pain of all people need a BTM
And seriousley why the hell where almost all of them pretty criminals Pistols sounded like "Fuck off," wheras The Clash sounded like "Fuck Off, but here's why.."- Thedigitialgardener

ahhhh Pitbull one of the most undeserving 'artists' to make it big in the last few years.
At least T Pain makes me laugh. | |

I was let down by most of their new choices...I was thinking..have they done everyone then??? The series doesn't need to end...it just got relaunched. They should have at least had more wise choices....smh Download all the shit hop that you can for your kids, neices, nephews, and their friends also. That will prevent them from going out and buying it and will prevent some shit hop sales. Every little bit helps - Andy
