Jean Grae’s “Love Thirst” Brings Form to the Splatter
For years Jean Grae has been the female champion on hip-hop’s underground. Not sure if she was not able, or never had the chance for a bigger stage, but “Love Thirsty” the single off her new album Jeanius reveals the kind of balance she would bring to the mainstream scene.
The video references Martin Scorsese’s Taxi Driver
Jean Grae “Love Thirst”
You know what I’ve noticed? Every artist has a different brush and technique they use to paint a picture on a musical canvas.
Some like Trina in “Take it Back”..
Eatin dis pussy ain’t a job now(snack) like it’s thanksgiving and it ain’t comin’ (back)
Collard greens (neck bones) Nigga chew dis ass
Boat hold a special don’t stop till it pass
Licky, licky, licky, licky, licky for a (hour)
I’m a make it rain for ya here’s a golden (shower)
I’m smellin like a (flower) My pussy is a (rose)
Come a lil closer I wanna fuck your nose
just throw it at the wall, watch it drip, splatter and say.. “tadaww!”
Others like Jean Grae can use the same sex theme and manage to come up with something with a little more depth and perception.
Take this “Love Thirst” single with you; it includes an extra minute and a half of verseless love in the making. Kinda reminds me of one of those Barry White/Issac Hayes joints I loved back in my crate digging days.
Very well done. Very well done, indeed. Hope for hip-hop artistry, this is it.
