Ya ? was in middle school and I was in my late teens/about to enter my 20s working nyc clubs and record stores.
This was a colossal dissappointment and people only tried to save face till Jigga himself disowned it shortly after. Only song that ever got any burn off this ? in NYC clubs and parties was Body. Not even Get This Money caught on like they wanted it to. And believe me Flex tried.
? was trying to make it happen by bumping it in their whips. That lasted like a week then when they saw their girl wasn't with it they moved on.
03 Bonnie and Clyde and Excuse Me Miss saved Jay on the party scene that year. Those were his bounce backs but that period between Ether and Blueprint 2 he was hurting for hits of his own and that was when 50, Dipset and them really was getting these NY streets like that.
I heard Jay more on Scarface, Free and Cam songs that year in the streets and nightlife scene than anything off this album. Which is crazy cause this was the most mainstream of them all. Straight dud and the so callled reunion in '04 was a mistake from the get.
The combination of a mediocre package of content coupled with the Kellz controversy destroyed it damn near immediately. Didn't even become a cult classic just another failed vanity project.
It's crazy how people try to make this ? seem hotter than it actually was retroactively lmao -
What killed the 1st album's buzz was the sex tape ? . The 2nd album was a disaster. This ? was just a money grab, straight up.

Thread made me break out the R Kelly albums

its clear that they didnt even believe in the project even before the beef .Why let the trackmasters handle the whole project
I believe it was the trackmasters idea for them to make the album, I believe they were working w both artist heavy separately at the time -

Didn't Kellz say the album was supposed to be him and back in the mid-90's too? or at least he had an idea of doing a collab album with pac
"Kelly recalls a 1996 meeting with 'Pac in front of a hotel frequented by rappers and other music industry types. He says they planned to release a collaborative album at that meeting, but the idea came to a tragic end after Shakur was murdered later that year."

I seen to remember pepper spray and a stun gun?
From my recollection, they were touring to promote the album and there were some gang members in the audience throwing up gang signs. Kells got shook and walked off stage. -
