Hey Odub, So I relistened to my old Jeru

And he is not as tight as I remember. Big L on the other hand, much tighter. I rescind my earlier remark that Jeru was the best rapper to flow over a primo track.

    and no, he doesn't touch Jay in his prime neither. But Soundbombing 2 is still the best mixtape ever sold commercially, and come clean is still essential.

    first two albums were at times amazing (come clean, statik, ya playin yaself, d original), with some misses (revenge of the prophet).
    after that, we don't even need to discuss

    We really don't need to revisit the whole "jeru: hot or not" thread.

    Bottomline, dude had a moment which has long since passed. And he was never really as good as we thought he was.

    Did he ever release a 3rd album??

    I'm asking seriously.

    Yeah but without Primo and not on Payday/London.

    I love how there's a general consensus here on certain artists/records that everybody kind of just accepts as gospel truth. Is this the real "soulstrut effect?"

    btw: I like Jeru.

    I like Jeru too. It was just ridic however to compare him to Jay or for that matter others who rapped over primo. But you are definitely correct that there is a taste mafia on the strut. Some people have a problem with the roots, common or mos def. To me that's crazy.

    I think he produced a lot of his own beats on that album if I remember correctly.

    My mistake: Missed the earlier post.
