The Bottom Line hustles for the dough.

These tracks are only extracted from their sophomore albums, "Kiss Of Death" and "I'm A Hustla".

Rap priorities are things such as style, personality, abilities, life, even past things such as upbringing and the expenses of it. Some emcees are blistered with vocals that aren’t as entrancing as they need to be, and other predicaments such as similarities through a style can deflate others’ careers. Every occasion that makes your promotion hover is usually something turned towards the original fans; and it’s more likely a controversial video or insincere emotional song that something that matters. And Jada and Cass got those. But the main thing is that Jadakiss and Cassidy’s styles are nearly attached to each other. Flashy flows, over-one-syllable rhymes, and assuring the fans that they’re awesome. Their vocals are both recognizable, although Cassidy’s voice is empty from the rasp Jada has. Many of their songs are little “head implants”, catchy songs with subject matter refilling the antique cup that’s been in hip-hop with all of the subjects that so many use.

Subjects & Personality: Comparing Recent Tracks From Each

Cass has encouraged the black community (“The Message”) through a lyrical alert, and many wouldn’t think Cass’s capabilities are manageable through this kind of introspective hip-hop. Jada has wondered “Why” people do what, connecting ranges of queries in a questionnaire that fluctuated in subject, but what emcee could do that sort of track perfectly? And the partying/ladies tracks are dense from both of them. From Cassidy, ferocious synthesizers ascend in B-Boy Stance with lyrics that aren’t ignorant and intolerable, but decent enough to be a good mainstream song. And Jada’s U Make Me Wanna adds to the huge bankroll of hip-hop love tracks with Mariah’s unstoppable pitch interrupting the Scott Storch melody, but it still ain’t bad. It’s practical to mix all of these tracks together, but his edgy delivery and multies says “I attempted to make a rap I-love-you-boo track without the clichés, and I did it okay.” Jada’s fable of friendship is By Your Side with a sample trespassing through the tiny keyboard bliss; and even though his rhyming gets exasperating sometimes it’s still a tight tale. And even though Cass really doesn’t have a track exactly like that, Can’t Fade Me pushes away the smirks of the haters with a smooth piano and a few howls that drape the production with a tense, dramatic melody.

Subjects & Personality: Contrasting Recent Tracks From Each

Not all dimensions of these artists are similar, though, considering Jada came out with Puff in the nineties and Cass recently entangled himself in the mainstream. Their subject matter, although both often used in rap and by many other artists, are different. I hear Cassidy’s lady dedications more than I hear Jada’s gangsta grinning into the mic (such as the wild “Shoot Outs” which involves production horseplay brimming with gritty guitars and unrhythmic gunshots). The emotion in your voice tends to the outcome of the song, so if a too-confident vocal prospect prohibits a track from sounding serious and sincere, it’s the vocals lacking a tone. There are signals of sincerity from Jadakiss and Cassidy though, especially when they have longing or determination – either from trying to get into the game (“Kiss Of Death”, the guitars that infrequently bash through makes it more experimental than usual for Jada) or reminiscing about your girl until the relationship ended (“So Long,” with Mashonda’s hook and a piano). I enjoy each song that the emcees provide, but many just keep refraining from any idea that they can work through the normal scenery of radio hip-hop. Potential is a pleasant fragrance for hip-hop listeners but if it works depends on where you plug it in; you should instead get something more reliable.

There are quotes from each rapper that would stun you in different ways and make you think “He didn’t say that, did he?” whether the tone is negative or optimistic. These rappers are different rappers, yep. But what they’ve done and each of their possibilities are comparable. And if they eliminate the flab, they can go under a lot of maturation and evolve to turn into flexible, creative rappers. Finding your faults is necessary for the improvement of them, and respect is required for praise and compliments. Pinpoint your opinion on them by listening and realize if they may have a good amount of hope for this generation, or cannot fix the defected holes nor be domesticated for people to understand them.
