Her career never took off like it should have but if we just talking pen game I never heard a female MC better. Till this day I dont get why she never blew. Beyond her crazy pen game she has charisma great beat selection and made some really great overall songs. :yeshrug:









:salute:

One of my favorite albums was 'attack of the attacking things' which was kind of amateurish sounding but charming and full of personality. I've enjoyed her recent stuff with Quelle and other albums.

You wonder why more rappers don't be more honest and direct in their lyrics like her. So many rappers want to portray an image or act cool. It feels like shes so open with her life, it's the way rap should be.

Rapsody is real dope but Jean I’m her prime is my favorite.

you heard the joint they did together? I love Jean on this.

you can’t hack it like a lumberjack with blunt axes :wow:


Jean ripped this joint. Jean was a better lyricist... no question about that

Jean album wise not on Rapsody's league tho.

I think she good looking. Though maybe I just find her whole package attractive. Her being super nice on the mic, with charisma and if you ever see her interviews she super goofy which I like :manny:. But maybe shes not first sight attractive. I dunno.

And we are factoring in influence and impact obviously there are way more female MCs that have far more. If we just talking skills though. Shes the GOAT. She rocked with Black thought and held her own :blessed:
