King Eric is apart of Off The Cuff Radio is a North Carolina based Internet radio show(on blog talk radio) set up to give extra promotion for up and coming artists. Best believe had he added this with the best cuts off Kiss of Death that he would have had a 5 mic classic on his hands. This still stands out in the midst of time as Kiss’s best work to date.
This is where Kiss shows that he can actually write songs and he asked the questions of WHY occurrences such as corruption in politics, the rap game, and within life’s struggles.Įven though its short and sweet. The album’s best track no question is also one of the best song Jadakiss’s ever wrote is WHY. Check out the tracks 40 Bars of Terror, My Buddy and Carry Ya Casket. The Yonkers Kid with the raspy continued to swing for the fences and prove why he’s one of the rap games prime spitters. It’s even a opener to Warren Ballentine’s Radio show. The Champ is Here which was heavily influenced by Muhammad Ali’s boast of glory remains as one of Kiss’s best tracks ever. What made The Champ is Here stand out amongst as one of the greatest mixtapes of all time is how he set the theme off as a hungry boxer in the Rap game. Jada knew that when he’s planning retail releases that he has to cater to more bosses but on The Champ is Here this is Kiss as his finest. His anticipation for his Sophomore album Kiss of Death was growing once again and Kiss served up the streets with a classic mixtape titled The Champ is Here. The album still went Gold and was successful enough to keep him relevant.His price demand was still up for whenever an artist needed a cool 16 or a feature on an album. He tried too hard to please different demographics and the album despite its gems turned out to be a disaster.īut that didn’t stop Kiss. Despite the fact that he had a monstrous buzz, hit singles,and every co sign giving him the credibility as the next rap star to blow, The direction of Kiss the Game Goodbye was misguided and fired all over the place. Provided you can stomach the Will Smith version of Cassius Clay proclaiming "The champ is here!" about every 30 seconds (Jada's cackle could've been kept in check a little more, too), you should find that it's actually superior to this fine record.What was considered the most anticipated since Illmatic turned into a critical disappointment for Jadakiss. For further proof, listeners looking to go deeper are strongly advised to seek out The Champ Is Here, a teaser mix presented by Big Mike and Green Lantern. No matter the number of bright moments, you can't help but feel that Jadakiss has his best days ahead of him. These issues aside, Jadakiss makes good on his promise to become a rounded lyricist and receives some valuable help in the form of tight production work from a handful of pros - surprisingly enough, Swizz Beatz's work on "Real Hip Hop" tops anything that producer did for Cassidy's debut, and the Red Spyda-manned title track (bizarrely tucked near the end) is Jadakiss' most vicious track yet. This, along with a particularly ill-suited "soft and smooth track for the ladies" featuring a carted-in Mariah Carey as well as a too-familiar-sounding Scott Storch production, is thankfully the only outright blights on an otherwise satisfactory showing. The most startling thing about Kiss of Death is that Jadakiss dumped a bunch of Neptunes productions and kept only "Hot Sauce to Go," one of the record's poorest tracks.
