    Different For The JB's But Not Bad

    By Paul  Jun 19, 2000

    Although J. Beez Wit The Remedy is a watered-down version of their unreleased Crazy Wisdom Masters LP, it is still good. It's quite a departure from Done By The Forces Of Nature and Straight Out The Jungle, but it works most of the time. Play "40 Be...low Tropper", "My Jimmy Weighs A Ton", and "Book Of Rhyme Pages." The best track though is "Spittin' Wicked Randomness" which is one of the very experimental tracks from Crazy Wisdom Masters that was kept on ...Remedy. This is out of print, so look hard for it.

Pro Reviews: J. Beez Wit the Remedy

  • All Music Guide

    Willfully difficult, ceaselessly sarcastic and playful, Jungle Brothers had more talent than virtually all of their contemporaries in alternative rap, but often squandered it taking detours that did little to endear them to hip-hop fans. Four long years after their Native Tongues family had emerged with the success of De La Soul's 3 Feet High and Rising, Jungle Brothers finally returned with their third record. Expectations were very high, from fans and their label (Warner Bros.), but if the JBs didn't exactly bring the remedy with this one, they still featured an obtuse playfulness sorely lacking in hip-hop. Mike Gee and Baby Bam didn't have as much to say as A Tribe Called Quest or even De La Soul; most of the songs here are loved-up sex raps or weed fantasies, and the group deliberately blurs the lines between the two, getting dangerously close to objectifying a woman on "Spark a New Flame," but speaking lovingly of marijuana on "I'm in Love With Indica." The chorus on the hilarious...ly titled satire "My Jimmy Weighs a Ton" (a clear Public Enemy reference) skates back and forth between a sweet diva and a hardcore jam. The productions, virtually all of them by Jungle Brothers alone, are freewheeling and unpredictable, but vary in quality from intriguing to downright misguided. - John Bush, All Music Guide Read more Less

Biography

Jungle Brothers

Although they predated the jazz-rap innovations of De La Soul, A Tribe Called Quest, and Digable Planets, the Jungle Brothers were never able to score with either rap fans or mainstream audiences, perhaps due to their embrace of a range of styles -- including house music, Afrocentric philosophy, a James Brown fixation, and of course, the use of jazz samples -- each of w... Read more
