    • Classic Flashback: Shades – “Tell Me”

      Written by The IPS in Blogs, Videos on Sep 30, 09


      ROFL does anyone else remember this joint!?

      I remember they signed to Motown, and I always laughed at the line “cause ain’t nothing goin on but the rent” and she held that rent out into the longest run EVER. Good times.

      As far as I know, they didn’t have another album. I think the dude who works with Trey Songz now, Troy Taylor, was involved with this album/song too. He’s done a bunch of stuff over the years though…

        I remember this song, this was my jam back in the day!

        Coco this was my jam too!! I haven't heard this song in years though…IPS you took it BACK with this one!

      3. October 1, 2009 Donovan

        I'm familiar with this song but as LL Cool J featuring Total's Loungin (Remix)… never heard this so I guess it was the original

      4. October 1, 2009 Twizzle

        Motown threw out bout fifty-leven acts around this time, and didn't nan one stick!

        Shades, 7669, Ladae, Whitehead Bros., Taral Hicks, etc . . .

        I bet every single last one of 'em is workin' at the local Piggly Wiggly these days . . . Andre Harrell almost DESTROYED Motown, single-handedly. The crazy part is that the acts weren't all bad. What a shame!

      5. October 1, 2009 RUNAWAYSLAVE

        I remember this cut too. It was weird because it was out around the same time as the LL/Total joint. Both songs were sampled from an old New Edition cut.
