Title: N E 1 else think new Truth Hurts is...
Post by: Quadruple OG on March 08, 2002, 08:40:47 AM
wack as fuck?  The beat by Quik was a little dissapointing to me.  It was great to hear Rakim, but Truth Hurts ruins any chance of this song sounding decent.  I don't know why Dre wants to waste his time with this act when he could have worked on and put out a classic by Rakim, or (even though I think he's an average rapper at best) put out Hittman's album instead.  Truth Hurts doesn't appeal to me, and I'm sure many of u as well (although since some of you like everything Dr. Dre touches, you'll probably think it's the shit).  My prediction for Truth Hurts album is it is going to flop big time (like The Wash soundtrack) unless she gets on MTV, which I highly doubt.

I agree, Mack.  I'm not feeling good about this.  But let's be hopeful.  There was a pretty cool thread (check link below) about this track being posted on WC2k (Lil Jay'z Site)  There's some good feedback from other board members you might wanna check.  G-Look'n.  Pz

Well I hope your not giving up on her after once song from her album.  Y'all didn't feel "Benefit Of The Doubt"?  I just think it will be real interesting to hear her album.

The production sounds like Quik sampled an Indian song which I heard before...I can't really tell if Truth Hurts is wack or not by this song but Rakim came tight and I kinda like the beat...

Man ,       fuck this shit  ..........

this song  is   incredible .         i took  world music in college and  was   very   intrigued  by    music  of   india  and other middle east  countries .      then i hear this  quik beat  and im like   >>>   :o

and  truth hurts   fuckin  kills  it !!     her sound and voice is in a league of  its  own .     which could be a  bad thing  because  people  might not be ready for it  !!  

do yall wanna  keep hearin these same old   piece of shit   R&B    joints  with    Destiny Child  beats   and    some bitch singin    about     payin her bills  or   her  baby   daddy   or  scrubs and pigeons ?      how bout   that   "neo-soul"     erika  badu  ,   jill scott   shit  ?    which personally    puts  me  to   SLEEP!

its all about  takin this music thing to another level .       i remember   mellowman    stating in  one  of    Dr.Dre Detox posts  ..........   " YOU WANNA  HEAR THE SOUND OF THE FUTURE  .......... COME ALONG FOR  THE RIDE ..........  IF NOT  STAY  IN THE PAST "

The  future  is     upon  us

Yeah, I definately think it's wack.  Yall think Quik's being all revolutionary with that mid east beat, come on now.  I coulda done better with some pots and pans.  Have yall EVER listened to Eastern music?  It does'nt even have a 4/4 beat, so how can you 'sample' it correctly?  To me, this song doesn't sound inventive at all, it repeats over and over and over and over, Truth sounds incredibly monotonous, she doesn't even hardly sing on it.  If you'd listen to some Sitar music, you'll see what Eastern music CAN be, this is really, really not very mature musically.  I say Christina Aguilera blows her out of the friekin' water.  Just my opinion though , I could be wrong ;)

IMO this shit is WACK, and I wouldn't be surprised if this LP flopped. Dre needed to get RA out instead! ONe

It's not wack... but it's not revolutionary either...

i'd have to say i think it is totally wack...although ive not heard it in mp3 so it must be a little better than that.
