Jean Grae - Underground Legend or just another Femcee?

IP: 39C2 8F9E

For those of you who are not familiar with Jean Grae, I don't blame you. She's managed to stay underground (signed to the overlooked Babygrande record label) for quite sometime. You may have heard her on The Roots' "Somebody's Gotta Do It" as the smooth-flowing female on verse 2. Her first album "Attack of the Attacking Things" is a slept on hood classic - you might call her a "female Immortal Technique". I'm posting this 'cuz I'm curious as to what you all think of her - hot or not? Personally, if you can outshine Talib Kweli ("Phoenix" from Kweli's The Beautiful Mix Cd) you've earned my respect. Hit me back with your thoughts people.

If you want a good example of Jean's solo work, check out "My Crew" and "Block Party". (The lyrical content of the second title is quite irrelevant, yet I can't complain...Ma's got mad skills on the slow flow)

Drop an honest vote, gimme a link and I'll return the favor.

Bro, I can't find any links right now, but I'll hook you up when I do. In the meantime if you got an extra $10 laying around, head out to Best Buy and pick up "The Bootleg of the Bootleg EP"...Jean rips every song, with some pretty good guest appearances to back her up.

Come on folks, we need to close these battles already:

www.jean-grae.com
after it's done loading, click "listen"...it's a clip of "My Crew", one of the tracks from "The Bootleg of the Bootleg EP". And yes, Caliph, you can get it in stores, I got my copy at Best Buy. I'll work on getting you guys some mroe links, but until then enjoy.

Drop honest votes folks, 'preciate it.

Yo, I got another audio link for y'all. www.babygrande.com/
When the site loads go to the audio bar (under the bar w/ artists, boards, etc.) and click the button that looks like "eject" upside-down. That'll bring up the track list, #4 is "Plan A", a Jean Grae track over G Unit's "Gangster Shit" beat. #7 is Dj Sharkey's "Summer in the City", feat. Jean, and she just rips the whole track. Tell me what you think of that shit people.
