Rate The New Big Boi, T.I. and Slim Videos

If it seems with each new segment of BET’s daily “106 & Park” there’s a new music video from an Atlanta act, well, no worries we’ve done the catching up for the past week, for you.

Below are the YouTube versions of the new releases from Big Boi w/Mary J. Blige (“Somethin Gotta Give”); T.I. (“Whatever You Like”) and Slim w/Shawty Lo and Yung Joc (“So Fly”).

Tell us what you think. (And maybe an even better question: Why do you suppose the T.I. song is the only one of the three getting real airplay locally?)

I don’t know about all that other stuff but what I do know is that I didn’t care for T.I. until he released this new song and I’m LOVIN IT.

T I should go down to Clayton County and run for Mayor or Sheriff or the School Board. He has a huge fan base there of people with no goals, morals, brains……yep, a perfect fit: T I and Clayton County.

I really feeling the Big Boi featuring Mary J. I don’t know why T.I. is receiving more air play. Maybe the powers to be don’t want to play Big Boi new release because it has a real message.

I like the TI Video, but the Big Boi, Mary J. video has a good message one that is prevalent currently. The Slim w/Shawty Lo and Yung Joc, video has a simple beat one similar to a lot of songs currently out there. Slim has a good voice, but I would have expected a lot more skills from him since he is a seasoned R&B Singer. He probably could have made a hotter track on his own…..

Hey Truth…Do me a favor and before you make ignorant comments like you made, check out all the videos. The beauty about Hip Hop is that it can’t be pigeon-held.

umm Count007… T.I. is not about a gold digging woman. it is actually about a woman who is not used to seeing the finer things in life and he is giving her that because he wants too, not because she asks. and for Exkalade, big boi is not a thug, so why dont you worry about the thugs in the rock industry who take all kinds of drugs and other mess and then kill themselves for a good time.

This is what i hate about america. rap (black dominated) can have a song talking about killing somebody and it is frowned upon. but john travolta can make a movie about killing, stealing someones identity and much worse and it is smiled upon. this world is still racist and always will be. i saw a segment on tv where people were picketing the release of american gangster because denzel washington was playing a killing drug lord and they felt like he was glorifying him. well what about all the white people who have played gangsters in movies? the godfathers is considered one of the best movies ever. scarface is a classic, the untouchables is a classic and they are glorify thugs. somebody let me know why everything black people do is so bad. to finish, i am young whtie student attending harvard university and i am from atlanta. so before any of you make assumptions and call me an idiot or dummy, think first cause i am probably smarter than anybody you have ever known. like hip hop. i like it because it is creative to me almost like poetry. so america, fix yourself before you try to fix hip hop

I like T.I’s song and video. I think every woman….no matter how old she is………has always daydreamed about a man taking them off their feet and doing very nice thigs for them without asking questions for one day. The video is really cute. I’m 39……when I see the video and hear the song, I often daydream about being able to have the finer things in life. Yes, I already have a good husband, good health, and a wonderful family, But sometimes I just want to have the money to do whatever I want. T.I’s song is definitely for the women.

Ah, more showcasing of America’s worst at the AJC. How distressingly weird. Just the other day, an article about a rap goon who was bounced from a Oklahoma University meal ticket for his endorsement of the criminal lifestyle. The article claimed he called his handler, or some other enabler crying because he didn’t know the difference between right and wrong. Hahahahaha!!!!.

Now we have a T.I. and some other creep taking up space asking for ratings. What do you mean rate this?. I rate it five years mandatory for possesion of automatic weapons. Some confused desperate “judge” decided it would be wise to let this bird go out on a publicity tour, showing his people how he beat the system. Now the AJC want’s ratings. How about a new editor?, a real shake-up at the top?

i will tell you this, he was arrested for having machine guns. the reason he got off is uncertain. i dont know and neither do you. it could be because he is a celebrity, could be because he is going to be used to talk to teenagers about the mistakes he made or simply because he is going to cooperate with the feds. all i know is that two white girls got one year in jail total for robbing a bank and the black guy involved who didnt rob it got 5 years. haha, you people need to just get a clue! you are wondering why T.I.got 1 year for possession and these girls got 1 year between them for ROBBING A BANK!! not possession of anything. see possession means he hasnt acted on anything or anyone yet. but these girls committed the act of robbing and got one year! come at me with some real questions please Lol!!

I applaud Big Boi for putting out music that is creative,and has a message and substance. Unfortunately, b/c he’s not rapping about money,b!tches, and rims, he probably won’t get that much airtime. The real music isn’t found on BET or mainstream radio. That’s not what corporate media wants us to see. They’re more concerned with making money than making a standard.

Politics and racial disharmony aside, this is some boring-azz shat. Rap could use some damm energy. This yawn inducing snooze-fest aint happening.

Rap seems to be nothing more than redundant and predictable and could use some more electricity, percussion and musicianship - not a passionless boring sampled backtrack playing over and over and over again.

It’s like Chinese water torture. The simplicity of this chick music is mind-dulling.

Jazz and blues are surely rolling over in their graves.

A convicted druge felon soon to be in federal prison on weapons charges. Tupac..shot dead by a gang of thugs. Notrious BIG another rapper assassinated by rival thugs.Look at .50 cent. How many times was he shot? Most rappers only understand violence and the pursuit of easy money.

Hands down Big’s the best. He had a message (even if ur not for Obama) that needs to be heard. We gotta make a change. All this “computer hate” is doing nothing. I appreciate the fact that he’s not talking the same ol’ same ol. Oh and to the person who asked about his political knowledge…..u’d b surprised at what he knows. I cant b 4 sure but at the same time wouldnt question it either. Studies show that more people are paying attention this time. Its time to stand up no matter who you vote for. People WAKE UP and see that if we demand more music like this maybe JUST MAYBE we can get rid of the bubble gum hip hop that we complain about. Thats just my opinion on the situation at hand that is.
