Article RR Listening: Jadakiss The Last Kiss

One_Yaself_Hater · 03-27-2009, 07:03 PM

Reported live from the house Russell and Rick built:

1. "Pain & Torture"

When it comes to producers, Buckwild's a name you can trust. And on this booming track, Jada talks greasier than a can of WD-40.

2. "Can't Stop Me" Featuring Ayannna Irish

Not even the Ashford and Simpson-penned sample (Ross!) could get this track high enough on the charts.

3. "Who's Real" Featuring Swizz Beatz and OJ Da Juiceman

Putting Jada and OJ on the same track is like mixing vodka and milk. Yuck.

4. "Grind Hard" Featuring Mary J Blige

It's a 914 thing. The track has an electro bounce to it and meshes well with Mary's vocals.

5. "Something Else" Featuring Young Jeezy

Dark and moody guitar strings back Jason and Jay. But honestly, it's better suited for the Snowman with lines like: "See these blood diamonds, my chain African." Yep, ignorance is bliss and I'm cheesing from ear to ear.

6. "One More Step" Featuring Styles P

Off the first listen, it's not as good as their previous back-n-forths.

7. "Stress Ya" Featuring Pharrell

Average at best. Skateboard P croons on the chorus and at the 2:48 mark, blings the track with the Neptune sound.

8. "What If" Featuring Nas

Jada and Nas question the game of life, with lines like "What if Jordan went to Portland" and "What if a brick was a misdemeanor." Dope record, even if 50 already beat them to the punch.

9. "Things I Been Through"

Here is a true gem. With a Luther Vandross sample on the hook, Jada gets introspective. When addressing his deal with Roc-A-Fella, he says "I'm just another employee that's on line." Job security is a muthafucka these days.

10. "I Tried" Featuring Avery Storm

Heavy cymbals + drum machine + Avery Storm= Filler Fail

11. "Rockin' With The Best"

This is another cut that caught my ear. Expect to hear this on a radio station near you.

12. "Smoking Gun" Featuring Jazmine Sullivan

A conceptual record featuring the window breaker on the hook. At the end each verse, Jada references using a burner to get his point across.

13. "Cartel Gathering" Featuring Ghostface Killah and Raekwon

Can't trust those pesky tagged internet leaks. Pretty Tone spits his game, on the version I heard.

14. "Come And Get Me" Featuring S.I. & Sheek

Jada, Sheek and newcomer S.I. go in on this sinister cut. S.I. sings "...You can get a fresh buck 50/ We got guns, money, liquor, drugs/ Right here 'til they come get me ."

15. "By My Side" Featuring Ne-Yo

This track is still wavy.

16. "Letter To B.I.G." Featuring Faith Evans

After Jada's kite, the whole game ran to the mailbox.

17. "Something Else (Remix)" Featuring Young Jeezy, Snyp Life, Bully, AP, Boo Rossini & Blood Raw

Too many niggas. *presses button pointing to the right*

18. "Death Wish" Featuring Lil Wayne

Jada comes through, but Wayne's Marvin the Martian flow is less than desired.

Bottom line, Jada is an A-list lyricist that produces B-list albums. If this is indeed his Last Kiss, expect to walk away with strep throat. What? It's just my thoughts, man. Right or wrong.

pDASH · 03-27-2009, 07:39 PM

Purdu · 03-28-2009, 10:05 AM

Looks like it's gonna be an ok album, I think I'm gonna buy this..

GMNRecordsCT3 · 03-28-2009, 10:32 AM

Hopes it's better than that...

IronCro · 03-28-2009, 12:54 PM

Jadakiss is so talented on the mic imagine if he had the work ethic of Wayne always putting out music and always recording he would be one of the best in the game. Instead he is lazy and does not put out a lot of material and puts together so so albums. I wonder how many tracks Jada recorded to make this album, from the review it sounds like not many. Still gonna cop it but I was hoping it would be better than this review I will just have to judge for myself.

YoungKR07 · 03-28-2009, 01:01 PM

Jada did a song wit oj da juiceman, did not see that comin @ all and hov should be on the album
