Title: 2nd Singles That Should Have Been...
Post by: Rud on February 24, 2005, 03:16:38 PM
I Know People Will Have Lots of Different Opinions & Suggestions On Various Tracks.

This Morning I Was Driving To Work Today & I'd Picked Kurupt - Space Boogie (Smoke Oddysey) And "Sunshine" Ft Jon B, Came On And I Was Like Fuuuuuuuuuuuck That Track Was Dope As Fuck, It Was Set To Be The 2nd Single/Vid But It Never Came To Be As Album Sales Were Poor, Such A Dope Summer Track - Woulda Been Great To See A Video, One of My personal summer anthems!

Yeah, there are a lot of CDs that should have had more singles.
Knocturnal - Him Or Me (Whatever happened to that), also What We Do could have been a dope single for LA radio stations during the summertime
213 - Absolutely (I was almost positive that would have been a club banger)

If This Thread Garners A Good Response I may have to get an article written for dubcnn on the reasons why labels should push second singles, cause its usually their fault for poor sales off a first single as they usually pick a terrible lead single.

There is actually a few tracks on that cd that could have been 2nd singles, like "hardest mutha fuckas" and track 2 i forgot what it was called but it was tight as fuck, i think "itsOver" had more of a east coast feel to it. i haven't listened to that cd in a grip tho.

Hell yeah, many CDs pick the wrong song for second and third singles.

213 - Joystick, or Lonely Girl, or Run up on us, shit it was a lot. But then some people say that "So fly" was a single so that would mean the CD had two singles.

Suga Free - Thinkin (was it on the radio?)

DJ Quik - Under the influence - Come 2nyte

He's not West Coast, but I never understood why there was never a 2nd single for Petey Pablo's latest album. Freek-A-Leek was the first single, but there was never a single that followed was there?

He Spoke To Me would have been a good single.

^^He had that Vibrate track with Rasheeda. Had a video and everything, just didn't do well.

Are you serious? I didn't know that!

My copy of the album has 2 bonus tracks, Blow Your Whistle (pre-single) and Vibrate, but Vibrate is even a hidden track.

Did it also appear on a soundtrack or something then? Cause this it's strange to have a bonus track as single.

I don't think people understand the topic.

Rud is talking about albums that DIDN'T have second singles. Obie had a second single in "Set Up" With Nate Dogg. 50 had like 3 singles. C'Mon people!

The set up was a great second single. Better third was needed.
