Shortly after Jay-Z announced that he planned to release his newest album, American Gangster, rival rapper and true Harlem-native Jim Jones proclaimed that the great HOVA had no right to release such an album (Jay was born in Brooklyn). In response to the project, Jones hooked up with Jay’s former partner at Roc-A-Fella, Dame Dash, and recorded a mixtape entitled Harlem’s American Gangster. After hearing the project, however, Koch Records (who owns half of Jones recording contract) decided it was far too good to be released as just a mixtape. The lead song from the album, Love Me No More, has been remixed by DJ Khalil and added to the fray is West Coast giant, The Game. The project is set for release on February 19th.
Haha. A Jim Jones album being described as "far too good"? I gotta hear that..I always thought his rhymes are SO corny. This isn't bad though. I like the hook a lot, and that Game verse is crazy.
The Game a legend... I disagree. His raps are serviceable but not great; all he really has is bravado and a good rapping voice. I like this song though.
ANYONE WHO DOESN'T HAVE THIS MIXTAPE YET, GO OUT AND GET IT ASAP! Harlem's American Gangsta is an excellent CD! This is just one track from that album and the rest is damn good as well...Better than Jay-Z's American Gangsta in my opinion. This song is sick...I wish game wasn't on it, but its still sick!
I knew Blaze couldn't go more than a week without starting some sh*t... "Jim Jones' American Gangster is better than Jay-Z" is going to get this board going...
After "Ballin'" I have been waiting for a hot track from JJ. His last album--P.O.M.E.--was good, but it didn't have that many mainstream songs. This song should carry his name for a few months.
this is crazzzy sick!!
I can rate songs like this easy, I got know problem Game bein on this joint!
I don't know the whole drilly on him and 50 but, Its seems like "he don't take shit without give in some back" (
I like Jim Jones, something about him, I dont know what it is, but I love him. I wish he was more mainstream. I love this song and I like the guy singing.
I didn't think American Gangster was all that great either Blaze. I haven't heard "Harlem's American Gangster," but I like this song here better than 3/4 of Jay Z's CD.
