audio review : Immortal ( album ) ... JT Money

JT Money is Immortal in the sense of being a permanent part of “hip-hop history”, but he’s more of a footnote than he seems to realize. He’s known mostly from Poison Clan; a duo; Debonaire actually drops a surprise verse here; turned group known mostly as a protégé of Uncle Luke. Now, like too many OGs in the game, he’s more concerned with making Mount Rushmore lists than making good songs.

audio review : OG Perspective ( album ) … JT Money

audio review : OG Perspective ( album ) ... JT Money

JT Money’s appeal as a member of Poison Clan, what made him entertaining, was his blatant misogyny. Now that he’s older and more mature, he’s less interesting. He says he still Hate Hoes, but you wouldn’t know it listening to this album, which he suggests will be his final. There are even a couple of earnest “love” songs.

The main problem with OG Perspective though is that it’s simply lacking; not just the quality of the verses but also the hooks. Even the beats, typically the redeeming aspect of a rap album, are weak. The one good song is How Ya Move Out Here, on which he gives good advice about not bringing too much attention to yourself.
