Review:
G4 JAG has been sprinkled throughout my Hip-Hop catalog for the last two years. He's been featured on the majority of the music I've recently been bumpin'. Usually, when I'm already listening to great emcees, others follow eventually with collaborations.
Prior to this album, I've been listening to two other albums this gentleman has put out this year. And I haven't reviewed them yet, because I'm really going back and forth with them. Meaning, I like the artist greatly, but it seems like he's still finding his groove on production. With that deep Godly voice, it's tough trying to blend with a beat and not stand out. Most of the time, I'm focused on his vocals and lyrical content. By time I listen to the beat, I'm like, I have to rewind to remember the beat. Not, with this project though.
He's found his groove with Dirty Diggz on this project. There amazing together. I'm demanding another project this year from the gentlemen. This is how good they are on this album. It feels like he married those beats, then fucked those beats and then spit out about "Octo-mom" Hip-Hop classic tracks.
Every track sounds like it was hand made for Mr. Jag. It was like Dirty Diggz was watching G4 Jag since birth and made eight beats about it. The music alone will have you in good spirits in the car, around the house or on that treadmill in the gym. All of the tracks have me going back and forth with them. I've had this album in rotation for 48 hours. I didn't leave my home because I was listening to G4 Jags entire catalog, not Corona Virus.
Now, I'm always in disarray when I stumble upon an emcee that makes me rewind the track. And when I say G4 makes me rewind, my index fingers are suing G4 right now for abuse. This MC is incredible talented. I know he's new to many, but I'm betting my next four kids on this dude. His word play has me contemplating whether he's a 5 MIC emcee. I'm debating back and forth like the Aaliyah song. I was debating back and forth like Black people listening or not to R. Kelly music. #FuckRKelly
This is a great year for music for G4. He has two of the greatest albums so far this year with "Still Surviving" and then this one. And then he has the release with The Musalini with "Scriptures in the Sky". Go peep both of those projects and his other projects as well. You wont be disappointed.
G4 JAG, if your reading OR watching my YouTube video review, I'd just want to say thank you. Your verbal warfare is dangerously glorifying and you have great taste for the music that marries it.
I'm rating this album a #hiphopclassic. The points don't add up quit yet, but the entire album is pretty much flawless. This emcee is new to the game and is one to watch and listen for. Official rating is a 4.83, but it's arguably 5.0 MICS. I'll let time tell.
And who or what's Loyalty OR Death? It's just artist/producer Flee Lords record label. And if I had to take a wild guest, G4 is down with Flee Lord and his circle of artist.
