Welcome back

I like that Wissam is very unassuming. What I like about JD is that regardless of how he went about professing it, it was very clear that he had Janet's back even though the results weren't always favorable.

If anything, Alicia should have a found a way to align herself with that facebook campaign against child abuse. That is effective.

I had no idea of that this was even going on. Terrible promotion.

Knock it off or suspensions will follow. This is my last warning. Either put each other on ignore, or suspensions will follow.

She's clearly in great shape, and her gym actually looks like fun. But her face... Wow

Welcome home

Janet Maxwell Jill Scott soon to be Faith Evans Erykah

I think Michael was at his height was a genius in painting a visual for his songs via music videos; in a way, it really helps to enhance a song. But there's something to be said out of being able to create your own mental image just from listening to the music itself.

I agree. He found something that gave him in a lot of ways unprecedented success and continued to stick with it in hopes that people would come back around to it. He was waiting for people to adapt to what he was doing, not the other way around. He was too stubborn in that regard.

It's weird with MJ. His biggest issue wasn't his talent, but his refusal to adapt to change. He clearly was VERY involved in some of his best music. He was very involved in a how song is composed a certain way he wanted it to sound. It's one thing to study music theory; it's another to properly incorporate it and bring out the best elements of multiple sounds to help create that song. And for that, the work he did with Quincy is imo, genius. It's something people hope to create time and time again but have failed. The problem is that once he found a certain sound that gave him his pinnacle of success, he wanted to stick with it even though the zeitgeist had changed. I think sometimes who you work with helps to bring out that genius with you. Hell, Quincy has worked with a multitude of artists, but he has never been able to replicate that kind of timeless music that he created with Michael. There was a certain type of synergy and creative genius that was involved in their process. Clearly from watching This is It, he didn't need help on the performing aspect. When it comes to performing, and the thought process behind it, he has no peer. Musically, he clearly had a vision and involvement, but it doesn't reach that stroke of genius, unless he has someone who can bring it out of him. You can be genius and be stubborn and resistant to change. And to me, that describes Michael.

I take that back. December 12th might work best.

Honey please. I've been snatching wigs LONG before it was a common art I hope it's the last time you share your opinion on anything I'm associated with Your opinion is about as iconic and legendary as Pink Friday

Probably. I've been told a few things

Honey, let's not. The only thing iconic about you, is you using the word iconic in your posts It took me a couple of years to even remember your name

I'm leaning towards December 11th

No need to apologize. It's not like you were flooding the forum. Then I'd have to suspend you.

Very nice interview. I only had one concern: the person that typed it. Really? The rest of it was a mess too, grammar wise. Kathy needs to get a new typist.

Hmm... I don't think she realizes yet that he's not Black.

I don't recall asking for your opinion

Yall are funny

Andy that would be great. I actually have space in my PM box I haven't received any performances yet, so it's time to start collecting on that.

The performances depend on the day of the awards. Unfortunately, all the performances I had are with our beloved forum
