Supposedly to radical/ not market-able. I was thinking did you listen to the 1st album. He was leaning to a altenative funk, soul, free soul sound. The song "second born first"... for real. Straight to this direction. They lost out. Fans, we got love for it. Plays a lot of song from the album. Seen him 8 times, i never complained
bilal DOES that shit. praise to sa-ra for writing this. ....LOVE for SALE is a perfect example of why we all lose in the end when the music biz gets its way. that album is classic.
And I only send this song to those who need to hear it...... And trust me, I feel where you are coming from. Because I'm right here where you're coming from.🎉🎉🎉Detroit Hollywood same shit 😂
one of my all time favorite songs! Especially the "lost version" done by SA-RA. Same song, switch on lead vocals and some added effects to the background singing... PERFECTION
Mastermind!! Love this joint! There is a particular Live version of him doing this song in NYC where he is killing it on the vocals. So melodic and perfect with his "2" female background singers! You all HAVE TO peep that video performance of Bilal! BANANAS!!
At the time Love For Sale was supposed to get released, Bilal was a bigger name than Sa-Ra. They could've blown up off this song together if it'd been released as a single. GJ Interscope!
I have a thing for narratives, whether in film/TV/song for the city of Lost Angels. It's such an intensely complex city and I love it dearly. One of my favorite moments from his sublime 'Love For Sale' album ♥
Unfortunately I didn't discover this song OR lost album that the record company REFUSED to put out because of the leak. Man.....the leak don't mean everybody had it! 😠✋🏽 That man worked hard on his music. I personally think this is his BEST album right beside A Love Surreal. Took me a while, but I fell in LOVE with that album. Anyways. This song/project is dope.
the album is boss it sucks being a singer when your label mistreat your work they know what their doing thats why some singers need to go independant record/distripute ones own music
marshall ray II 🙏🏾 recently rewatched The Wash after all these years frm when It first came out. Love the film like first time seeing it over again! & listened to the soundtrack... Bring 2 by Bilal🔥🔥🔥 such a classic slept on song. This man truly deserves way more recognition! Than he’s gotten over the years...
i swear i heard the hollywood hollywood yeah part sampled by dilla i think right? anyone kno what song? it might be on jay stay paid or maybe one of the beat tapes
No, it's kinda old actually. The label never released it *smh*. I think this would have been a nice release for the Soul genre, I guess they felt different.
@SoAmazing9177 Because they ultimately wanna control what they put out there as the so-called "REAL" music. I'm not on no conspiracy theory tip, but how else can it be explained. Check out the quality of music out there & ask ppl they're opinion(s) & they'll agree that music these days is terrible. So why hide a gem like this from the ppl that want/need this goodness - CONTROL that's why....
