For The Grown Folks-Authentic Hip-Hop

Putting that wack ass "Ratchet" single under the seat I have a strong feeling that James Todd will be returning to his extra long hip-hop roots on this new album Authentic Hip-Hop (scheduled release date is Feb,12th 2013) as is shown by this smooth r&b backed track featuring Joe "Take It"!

the entire track listing is up above! an easy blind buy for me after an extremely sub par 2012, it's time to get 2013 started nicely......

I hope he does take it back. That's how he's been promoting it. This track is pretty nice... mood music.

How did you take the storm, Powell?

What's up Parker....we got killed over here man.....I'm still trying to gather up all the loses man, and to top it off I had a brand new son (my 3rd boy) arrive the day after the hurricane..lol, so with the bad comes some good news too I guess.....how did you do?

Didn't really catch anything worse than the usual Labor Day-type winds. Far enough inland. I just noticed we hadn't heard from you & KJ since. Figured that's why. Glad your family's alright.

It's a song for the ladies. Let's hear one authentic song before we get too excited. One stupid ass terrible attempt to stay relevant, and one song talking about how he would fuck a woman and telling her she can cum does not make it look like this will be real rap.

That said, it is a good song.

LL always had that track, though. So hope still lives...

If he puts in work like on BAD, he'll destroy everything.

actually it's a song for anyone who has had sex...if you've ever in your life had sex then that song should appeal to you...now if you've never slept with anyone then that song might offend you or make you feel uncomfortable....which might partially explain your answer stevie....

I Need Love is an all-time classic HIP-HOP love song so your point right here is not relevant is it???

Wasn't Exit 13 his album returning to the roots, bla bla bla?

So this isn't new, we've been through this before.

So the song appeals to you Powell? You want LL to make you cum all night and let you shop all day?

That explains a lot my Down Low Brother.

Nah I like to make my wife cum all night and shop during the day....and maybe while she's doing her thang, a few slow jams might be blaring in the background and this might be one of them...

I already prefixed this thread with the words GROWN FOLKS which automatically eliminates dudes like you and SRP...so anything you two clowns are saying here is not relevant (oh no there goes that word of the day again...lol)

for a dude who only checks out about 10 albums a year, at the most, complaining about the quality in hip hop seems silly.

2012 was weak tranny....get over it....lol

lol... OK Powell... I love LL as much as the next dude... ... but all this talk about "grown folks" "authentic" hip hop was the same chatter you guys were talking when Exit 13 dropped so I don't know why anyone is hyping this up like it is something new, different, or fresh.

no hype for me just anticipation over an all-time great dropping a new release......I'll reserve my judgement on it until I hear it....why don't you do the same?? anytime a GOAT emcee is dropping anything new shouldn't it be discussed on a hip-hop forum??

I agree, see my topic. But Cormega said it was a good year for hip-hop, everyone else here agreed.

I'm looking forward to it like the next man. Not trying to criticize anyone's anticipation, was just wondering why some people seemed overly excited about it since it sounded like more of the same from Cool J (Which is a good thing IMO, just nothing new).
