The poppy sounding stuff was the average hip-hop beat at the time. The hardest you would get during that period was something like 5 minutes of funk or rock box. Most of the singles was melodic beats like the on posted. And for the record New Edition ripped them off. Force MDs gave NE a style to run with :ufdup:
Please stop. Force MD's dropped in 85. New Edition had been rocking since 82-83. Never before have I heard the 2 groups compared until you lil uninformed cats log on then start re-writing history.

Puff stole Ron G whole mix tape style and gave it to the masses. Ron G had Miss Jones (Jonesy in the Morning to you youngins) singing over hip hop beats before Mary ever dropped.

Or yall can stop acting like this is a historical document and not a fictionalized show. There might not be a Mary J, Puff, or Ron G in the Power Universe. Lou Lou is the architect :troll:

RAQ GOT KANAN TO DONATE
THE BONE MARROW
ONCE IT WAS CLEAR THE DETECTIVE WOULD SURVIVE AND THATS
WHY HE KEPT HIS MOUTH CLOSED
ABOUT WHO SHOT HIM.

THATS THE ONLY WAY
ANY OF THIS MAKES SENSE.
:devil:
:evil:

I don’t think Kanan knows. Remember they were talking about him being in the hospital for the jellyfish stings? I get the feeling it was taken without his knowledge then.

Aight brehs, good start.

Does anyone know why those folks didn't get on the elevator with Raq?
Raq is a sexy ass woman, Dayum. Seems like this season her sex appeal has gotten better.

Marvin and Jukebox need to cut the shyts, Jukebox really, like Dayum.

I see how the writers are tapping Into Kanan's mental state after the incident, I can see the effects of that incident fukkin with his mental which may lead us down the path on how he became who he becomes.

Tired of Famous already smh, mixtape is collecting dust.

That was very interesting with the new artist, the chick, I'm from down south and I didn't know that was a thing, rapping over or singing over other folks beats at that time. That was something new to me and seeing the Brehs explain the concept in this thread, I didn't know fully about it.


Good show so far, Scrap is a leak. I think Morrell is gonna replace Scrap's position.

Unique is probably going to become much stronger as you Brehs stated with his he-man performance he did in prison.

Performing and dropping are 2 different things. NE was performing before Summer 83 as well. The bottom line is NE borrowing heavily from Force MD's is a hot take that's not accurate. Respectfully :hubie:

Marvin gonna smash that anger management chick
He'll grow a liking to the sessions and "Learn some things about himself"

There will be a scene of him displaying new calmer behavior around his people....and they will clown him about it:

"Nikka take a few anger classes and now all of a sudden he's Gandhi" :mjlol:

Interesting connection, tie-in and homage. New Jack City-Mario Van Peebles-The Carter. New Jack City/CMB drawing influenced from the Supreme Team. The direction/pacing felt different this episode (for the better) from Mario’s direction. Not bad :ehh:
