I brought his debut album like 3 years ago and it was a pretty good album, in my opinion. But, I don't know what to expect from his new album though. I mean, with him doing this spacey jazz-fusion R&B stuff; it will be a surprise for many listeners. I remember someone posted a message about his new album around New Year's, saying that this album was going to be dark and scary! I can't wait!

He played a show in Sacramento in January but I didn't go.. Haven't heard any new stuff..

Could we possibly get new Bilal, Van Hunt, Maxwell, d'Angelo this year?? And Erykah and Meshell? a girl can dream.. wait, dream BIG, new Amel too!! :santa:

anemone said:

Now THAT'S a muthafuckin' whish list!

anemone said:

um, hopefully there's a chance Bilal will drop his sometime this year.

D' said his would drop sometime this year and supposedly Meshell's next record is going to be rock influenced, thought i heard something about Maxwell releasing his year too and Erykah was waiting on Jay Dee's schedule to get freed up.

I hope they don't cancel the album. I got it, but wanted to buy it too. Like it very much.

I was trying all night to figure out if it really WAS just a funny hat, but I've come to the conclusion that it was a custom-made lampshade.

For performance purposes.

Bilal's was supposed to come out April 2006, but it micght get scrapped due to err'ybody bootleggin' it.
Van Hunt's is coming out April 4th.
Maxwell "Now" is supposedly in stores now.

I loaded that one before, but the volume sucked. Especially on Purple Haze.
I wish I could get it louder sometiiiiimmmmes.

mochalox said:

this clip only shows 2 or 3 performances, i would've loved to see him do purple haze.

btw, i have my laptop connected to my stereo, so volume's not an issue.

sinisterpentatonic said:

I have purple haze as an audio file only. I wish I had the video to that one too.

here's an old interview: http://cgi.omroep.nl/cgi-...w_bilal.rm

mochalox said:

Novabreaker said:

lol, for real? Forgive me, I've been off the grid for while. Geez!
sorry guys!

sinisterpentatonic said:

lemme explain!!!

After he released that MTV Unplugged album, I lost interest.
Funny how the same thing happened when Lauryn and Alicia did the same thing...

mochalox said:

i lost intrest after the his first release.

and have you ever tried watching him in concert?

sinisterpentatonic said:

no, but I heard he and lauryn was severely booed at CAU back in 1995 or so...
they shook their keys at them even...

mochalox said:

damn. at least they're are pushing the boundaries of muzak. i wouldn't mind hearing hearing their stuff at the doctor's office and in elevators.

sinisterpentatonic said:

speak 4 Urself!
I don't wanna hear Lauryn's crap anywhere, 'til she steps off her soapbox/high-horse.
