Last night was a great example of perception vs. reality. It's like people forgot that Jada spent a good 6-7 years murking EVERYTHING. His guest verses were a highlight of many albums. Kiss is closer to Nas and Hov than he is to Fab...

People been doing this. They did the same shyt with the RZA/Preemo versus. Cats straight up and down acted like they forgot that RZA had a 5 year run that tops or rivals any producer in Hip Hop history. Dudes be having fukked up memories.

the people want busta and DMX

Busta would still win. Catalogue too diverse with features for this format. He can go from scenario with tribe called quest to victory with biggie then to whats it gonna be with Janet jackson and look at me now with chris brown. But perhaps it also makes it also more of a chance busta picks the wrong songs I guess.

So since fab flat out lied about tamia having throat surgery whats the real deal as why he had ashanti record so into you

it was all Irv's fault. He was feeling himself so much that he thought it was best that Ashanti wouldn't be that ACCESSIBLE everywhere and become an "exclusive icon". Didn't even tell Ashanti that fab reached out for the video. He gave permission for the record to be recorded only. Tamia was on the original back in 98, that's her joint, Fab just remixed it, so it was only right to reach out to her and make another version that wasn't on the album, just the video. Which became the single anyway.

Y’all kept saying if you ain’t got hits you would get smoked in here verzuz. “Nas doesn’t have enough hits to vs Jay”....”X only got a few years in the game he couldn’t contend with Jay” but Fab has had hits and still got smoked by Kiss

No you need jams not just hits. Hits can be jams but not all jams are hits and vice versa.

Fab has 'Hits' but a lot of them are wack Kiss has 'Jams' that weren't really hits.

Like we gone make it wasnt really a commercial smash but if you play that record shyt gone go up. Vice versa if you play some of fabs hits like holla back nikkas gone look at you like

Tamia says Fab is lying about the throat surgery:ufdup:

EbuvK6LWsAE5WfC


Either Fab lying and they just wanted Ashanti cause she was hotter at the time :patrice:
Or Tamia's management told Fab that shyt about surgery to keep her off the song until they saw how dope the song was and allowed her to get on the remix...:patrice:


Dont matter still a classic song regardless...:manny:
