I review and rate albums on a potency scale of different drugs. The more POTENT the drug the BETTER the album. Always keep this in mind.
"WHO'S ON THE CORNER?" My favorite part of Rusty Jabbz where I get to listen to various independent artists and projects and decide whether or not they will get the priviledge to be reviewed and rated and later posted to my blog for the world to view. On this segment of "WHO'S ON THE CORNER?" feature the ep of "THE RECAPTURE THE ESSENCE By Jonathan Thomas & Midi Marc and the ep/dvd collaboration of "THE NEW WORLD SIDE ORDER" By CONCEPT, Crazy E and Dj Quazzar.

2.5 JABBZ
A collaborative effort of dope lyrics and beats. Jonathan Thomas coming str8 outta B'More and MIDI Marc coming outta South Cakalak. Following the old hip hop tradition of 1 MC/1 Producer. "Intro-No Money Down", is a lyrical preface of the emcee. "Wonderful Game", the song is a mello beat, kinda humdrum, no real lyrics not a good start for this ep. On the song, "That's How It Is" is where the artist picks up the pace, its the 3rd track on the cd, although the beat is wack his lyrical concepts on the song make you 4get about the lame beat and focus on the lyrics only. On the song, "Do I Have", the 4th track on the cd is where the ep hits it BIG with a stronger subject matter and a way betta beat. So far what I'm hearing is this artist still got a long way to go to be concerned with becoming THE GREATEST EMCEE! He is on that that right path. "Recapture The Essence", a str8 up lyrical gunplay explaining the concept on the title track about the title track. On the song, "The Symptom/The Now", the artist does an excellent job on this track which maybe the best track on the ep. Actually it is the best track on the ep. On the "Outro", the artist is shouting out all his gratitudes and thank yous toward some of his family and friends. The Recapture the Essence Ep is a good listen for the boomboxes and the ipods.

Phat shout out to Concept and Elaine on their next step in their lives. Congratulations to the both of you. All the best and may y'all two have a blessed marriage life.
Now onto to this hip hop marriage of CONCEPT, Crazy E and my very own Rusty Jabbz potna, Dj Quazzar creating a excellent collaborative album. Together CONCEPT & Crazy E spit dope lyrics with ill concepts and thoughts. A brief ep/dvd thrown 2gether 4 what I thought was on a humhum but the 2 show seriousness as if this is an official release. It goes to show that tru hip hop is not to be taken lightly but tightly. I've heard so many MINDspray collective work. I neva say one project is better than the other. Every project is something different leaving listeners satisfied & wanting more. I knew Concept and the MINDspray family for quite sometime. I never really focused on Concepts and Crazy E's rhymes before. However, there was this one time I seen Concept perform live on stage at Lafayette Grill down in Tribeca. I liked what I heard. I normally feel MINDspray and its other members usually as a solo or duet efforts. This is one duet effort that caught my eye. The overall packaging of the cd/dvd release, the first thing that grabbed my attention was the cd casing in black n white glossy cardboard cover. The artwork of the aliens/martians I thought looked good as if I was a child. "PEEP GAME!" wouldn't it be so ill if an artist releases an album with black n white artwork more often or every once in awhile to allow fans and supporters to use their creativity and color in between the lines creating their own type of cover for the artist. I recently gave my little cousin the cover of this cd and a pack of sharpie markers and we sat around and colored in the characters on the cd cover. It looks so cool the way we did it. I think its a good idea. I hope other artist reading this will take heed and give a thought to it. Anyway, back to the cd itself, "THE NEW WORLD SIDE ORDER". I'm not quite sure of the science behind the ep but you can listen to it and make several guesses and come up with your own final diagnosis of what the ep is supposed to be about. Whatever you come up with it will be good. This ep and dvd is another MINDspray classic to be added to their archives. Concept, Crazy E and Quazzar keep doing what yall do best. Yall betta hit the streets with the fulllength album don't come up in here with a great ep and then leave us hangin'. If they do I want be surprised just like MINDspray always leaving the crowd wanting more.
