FLASHBACK BABY!!! TQ

TQ…..Most people think he was a bit shit.  Or at least think he only had one good song (Westside)….what they don’t realise is that his debut album “They Never Saw Me Coming” was actually a late 90’s slept on classic (swear down).

TQ - theyneversawmecommin

People who haven’t heard the album always just look at me a little strange, like I’ve just called their mum a horse or something. Always an element of disgust in their expression….BUT…I stand by my statement.

The album reminds me of secondary school sooooo badly. It dropped in about 1999 and it was somewhat of a treasured classic in my year at school. We all knew the album word for word…very strange. But true, oh so very true.

Sick album that had some heavy guest features in the form of E40, Too Short, and Tha Dogg Pound. Here are some of the hottest tracks off this severely slept on album.

***TQ FACT – Jazze Jazze “>Pha featured heavily throughout the album as a producer…old skool Jazze Phizzle!***

*please note TQ made no more good songs after this album…and he was once signed to cash money….that worked out brilliantly for him*

Obviously “Westside”

& Bye Bye Baby

…but this is when the album became heavy. The album tracks were sick!

“When I Get Out” - fuck what you say, incredible slow jam

FLASHBACK BABY!!! BIG PUN…

I was going to do Big Pun Ft Miss Jones “Punish Me” and just rave about that but then, I saw “It’s so hard”….”Deep Cover”…..”Still Not A Player”…damn!

FLASHBACK BABY!!! JERZEE MONET FT DMX ‘MOST HIGH’

FLASHBACK BABY!!!! MASE FT THE LOX, BLACK ROB & DMX “24 HOURS TO LIVE”

I was just talking about Mase on Twitter (note to Mase, if your gonna jump on the hottest record out there (Drake) please don’t record through a fisher price microphone or whatever the fuck you recorded it through….parr…sad thing is, your bars were classic mase….sad times), and this song automatically came to my head. ‘Harlem World’ was a big album.

This tune killed it for me! Jada’s first line…

“If I had 24 hours to kick the bucket, fuck it……”

Not to mention, DMX completely tears this record to pieces…I miss good DMX

FLASHBACK BABY!!! DANTE THOMAS FT PRAS ‘MISS CALIFORNIA’

I have no idea why this song popped in my head just then, but it did…

random rnb from the late 90’s.

Pras was a parr

FLASHBACK BABY!!!!!! THE ALKAHOLIKS FT PHARRELL ‘BEST U CAN’

Hands up the DJ’s that played this on the X.O Experience vinyl album sampler…

This is such a sick club banger. RnB & Hip Hop club bangers just ain’t what they used to be…..

FLASHBACK BABY!!!! 702 – GET IT TOGETHER

Tuneage…702 were heavy back in the day. All the new RnB girl groups are whack now innit; Cherish (oh wait they’ve split up), Sophia Fresh, Dear Jayne (actually Dear Jayne are alright…), Electrik Red (dream, what are you thinking???)…I could go on….but most are swag.

702 were good…
