it worked out for Da Brat because at the same time, it didn't have a G-Funk feel in a way, it was more of an "east coast funk" if you will and females weren't getting that commercial love at the time.


Even though "The party continues" wasn't as big as it should have, i'm more mad that "Coming home with me" didn't BLOW UP as this was more HIT ORIENTED than anything!



Yeah, the Funk that J.D. and Da Brat came with was a bit different from Dr. Dre's but it was still an obvious influence; but just about everyone was following Dr. Dre's sound in some way in the early 90's. The Chronic and Doggystyle were unlike no other.

Damn, I haven't listened to this shyt in years either!!!! "The Party Continues" and the joint with Ma$e and Lil Kim is the only song I've still kept in rotation from that Life In 1472 album since the 90's. I've got to go back and listen to Life In 1472 again. I use to love "Going Home With Me". The minute I started watching the music video it took me right back to 98! lol This shyt was just so smooth.

J.D. did use that Bad Boy formula but I'll be damned if he didn't know how to make some good music out of it. He had some jams.

How you not rockin Jazzy Hoes? That was easily the hardest song on there, I also still play "Lay You Down" and "Sweetheart"

this. the clothes, dancing, sampling (yes, that track is a heavy sample) are all from Puff's template and it worked because the music was good and JD held his own corner in ATL and was the face of the region since TLC and Usher were doing numbers on alot of his production
