    :lush:it's not wrong...i just quietly loathe the liberal attempt to whitewash bush jur as a good guy now because he passed a losange to michelle obama at mccain's funeral or whatever. 

     

    put aside that he's been directly calling GOP senators to push for kavanaugh: whether it was cheney's baby or not, he openly used his power to push for the iraqi war, which directly & indirectly caused the death of thousands and the creation of isis.  no, trump being a fascist doesn't suddenly make him cool in comparison, he's a shit.

     

    *nervous* Haha! I just thought the meme was funny.

     

    I haven't fogotten what shit Bush Jr is and continues to be.

  2. Now you're just posting R&B joints. We have another thread for that. Nah, this genre is better suited being smaller rather than larger. I love the idea that this was just a flash in the pan and can only exist between "this date" and "this date" and with strict rules. Like Bruno Mars made that joint wit Cardi B and can NEVER be considered New Jack Swing because it was made in 2018.

  3. Nah, Heavy-D's verse on Jam isn't the disqualifying factor for it being taken off the list. It's the fact that it's a Michael Jackson song. It's like if Justin Bieber made an album where he raps on a handful tracks (in between singing) and it's considered a hip-hop album. No, it's still pop. Heavy-D's songs above, however, are rap heavy (heh) and can be argued don't belong in the genre.

     

     

    Also, I forgot to mention this in my earlier post, but what is that Queen Pen song doing in this thread?

  4. So, I'll be honest here: the majority of the videos posted are fine. All fall under my 4 criteria for the New Jack Swing sound.

     

    1) R&B singing.

    2) Funky 90s dance beat/slapping snare drum.

    3) Rap verse.

     

    And the most important...

     

    4) Young black/urban student lifestyle.

     

    Yes, some of these songs are about money and cars and that's not New Jack. The song must be about what it's like to be young, black, in high school/college. MJ having a song up where Michael Jordan is shootin around is not New Jack.

     

    Also, while I love Heavy-D, his songs have too much rapping. It's crazy to exclude him as he might have helped created the genre (along with Teddy Riley). I'm willing to discuss this point. The others? No. My word is final. No exceptions.

  5. Here's that sourcebook I mentioned earlier:
