The Dames 0 Report post Posted August 6, 2003 And My big question is will 112 get the LOX curse. You know, go platnium on your first album, get the big head, say you want out of your comfy contract, and then proceed to struggle to go gold. Actually, I think 112's album sales have increased with every subsequent release. Those albums are some of my favorites of all time as I'm a HUGE 112 fan. I expect nothing less when the new album comes out on Sept. 9th. The 2nd and the 9th are going to be KILLER release dates. Dames Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Ripper Report post Posted August 6, 2003 Well, looking at some of you pics, you were a Huge 112 fan...now just a large 112 fan. Don't be so hard on yourself. And I don't know. I don't doubt that the album won't be good...but their albums have gotten progressively worse with each release IMO. I liked there first one the best (Cupid is STILL the shit) but they became popier and popier as they went along. But Slim is still the man!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have to disagree with you on their album releases. Their first and second are on par with each other, in my opinion, with the third slightly below. They tend to have themes, in case you haven't noticed. The first one is all about getting the girl and being totally in love with her... The second one is that they're having problems, but they're trying to work them out. The last one, they done broke up and now they're playas. Yes, Slim in the man and so is Q.

Dames Yeah, I loved the album themes approach. But the first one (and the second) are what real R&B is all about. Love and the problems with love. Then comes the 3rd album and its all about, "We be playas" which I really didn't like. I just really think that people underestimate the hit factory power of Bad Boy. We will see if they can show and prove...we will see. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Dames 0 Report post Posted August 6, 2003 For the record, there has not been a song that 112 has made that I don't like. I own a LOT of their unreleased material and songs on soundtracks, remixes, etc. I have the version of "Na Na Na" with Sean Paul, which isn't that great. I don't care for the single too much, but it's 112, so I can't hate it. Hopefully, the rest of "Hot & Wet" will be better. I actually support 112....I buy instead of download.
