Besides some dope MCing here, you’ll notice the tension between me and the femme fatale. Yeah, unbeknownest to me, Jean Grae has been mad at the kid for a long time. She said I gave her a Negro Please back in the day and she came up to office one day and waited several hours to beat my ass. You see Benzino wasn’t the only one!
Anyways, we hugged it out like
Ari Gold. And I promised her I’d post her contribution to the Cookin Soul/DJ Drama’s Biggie
mixtape.
Jean Grae “Hypnotize”
{mp3}17 – jean grae – hypnotize{/mp3}
Wale, in this track, shows once again his ability to blend different genres. He doesn't limit himself to hip-hop, but enriches it with R&B nuances, creating a familiar sound. This fusion is not only an exercise in style, but serves to intensify the emotional impact of the song. And then there is his ability to rap. Wale is a master at playing with words, creating complex rhymes and modulating his voice to best express his emotions. In 'Blanco', his rap part is an explosion of words that intertwine with the melody, creating a hypnotic and relaxing effect. His ability to go from moments of pure energy to moments of deep introspection is what makes this track so engaging; it reminds me of when you would slow dance, hugging your woman.
