The rap from chuck d in undisputed is the worst thing on the album


choppy soundin b*stard...


i love chuck d., but i gotta admit his rap didn't do much for me on 'undisputed'.

let's just say it's no 'kool thing'.


fear of a female planet...
...fear, maybe...

Why does Baby Knows get no love in here??? eek


"She knows how 2 make U feel like your stuff ain't brown 2nite "

"She got the long dark legs
She got the butt that go 'round
This kind of poochie make u beg"

That's why. Shitty Cream knock off.



I couldn't care less about the lyrics. They don't distract me from the music, which is a lot of fun, IMO. Love his vocals, the guitar, the tight drums. Nice, little fun song.

So if you take the finished product - Rave Un2 - and remove:
Undisputed
Hot Wit U
So Far, So Pleased
Everyday Is A Winding Road
Baby Knows

You just took all the uptempo guts out of the album, not you got a sappy, slow, syrup filled "Rave".
"New Power slide...."

The problem with your new tracking is that it worsens the problem of the original cd. It's called Rave Un2 the Joy Fantastic, but most of the songs are not joyful, and most are closer to being outright downers. You've removed virtually every uptempo track.


I've often thought Rave Un2 was a poor choice of title.
My preference would have been Strange But True.
I envisioned a cd cover that would be a send-up
of the tabloids like Weekly World News.
Big picture of Prince caught by the papparazzi
with the headline STRANGE BUT TRUE.


The album was killed by the title, the fact that it was released in 1999, and that he announced that the producer was none other than Prince. The hype was huge, and the record was average (for Prince) at best.

it could do without some of it's shitty songs and
use a bit more punch and some more weird stuff:

first up, all the extended version of Rave In2

Purple House
When Will We B Paid?
Silicon
Madrid 2 Chicago
Breathe
Beautiful Strange

all of which would not look totally out of place
on different configurations of the album.

I've included Silicon since I like it and since
it's likely an older song, dating from before the
supposed High sessions since it includes a verse
from the Greatest Romance remix single.
and true love lives on lollipops and crisps
