Not too long ago, VH1 featured a show called Miss Rap Supreme. The show was supposed to focus on talented female artists, but plenty of hopefuls that didn’t make the cut claimed the reason why they were dismissed was the fact of them being over qualified. Nonetheless, the show didn’t help to fill the void when it came to women in Hip-Hop. In an over crowed profession, there is plenty of elbow space where females are concerned, the only problem is not too many women are credible—unless your name happens to be Jean Grae.
The lyrical femme fatal has been brandishing her compound wordplay under the radar for quite sometime, and now she has the backings of 9th Wonder to help solidify her crusade on her latest outing, Jeanius. Proving that she can be sexy while rhyming circles around most men, she out to quench her vocals with a simple ‘Love Thirst.’
My caramel mahogany fare tail,he gon’ do very well/ I’m fearin’ for the farewell, stay awhile/ We could just lay awhile, see me smile better/ Lean your chest on me, make you my sweater/ I want the rest of you/ Pressin’ me head-up, I need contact/ Your windows reflectin’ me back/later I ask where your memories at?/ Your face tellin’ me that, you need a taste/ Where the Hennessey’s at?/c’mon lace me, replace glasses with the tip of my Tongue/I won't front baby, lad
y is sprung/ And though relation is young/I feel us makin’ a connection beyond/ So that I (ssssss!) like a chick in the song/ No lie won’t I, take my time/let the bass unwind, claymation couldn’t mold a Better mind/you’re sick (sick)and I'll be the nurse/ And you be the patient, boy how insane could it get?/ (I’m so hot, baby)
