I agree. I like some of the new music ok, but there's nothing like a classic song with great music and lyrics. Vulgarity and profanity not needed. That is what stands the test of time.

@Tre4045 жыл бұрын
I SO feel ya, man... it just couldn't happen, though. And let me explain why: There were SO MANY OFFERS coming in to L.A. and 'Face to write and produce, and it took ALL of their resources to make all those hits for everyone else! It was EXTREMELY LUCRATIVE. FAR more lucrative than merely writing and producing albums for The Deele. It was a no-brainer, actually. Their question was, "Should we spin our wheels and have middling success on the R&B chart (and next to NONE on the pop chart), continuing on with The Deele? Or do we heed the deluge of calls from the MAJOR LABELS WHO WANT US TO DO WORK FOR THEM FOR MANY THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS, and in doing so, ADVANCE OUR SIGNATURE SOUND TO ALL THE WORLD??" You and I both know the answer to this; history has shown it, in fact.
