nice little 12" from the same label, which brought you the three brass tacks records.
canadian mc j.a.b (pronounced j.b), member of the guilty crime posse (gcp), released this three-tracker at the age of 19 in '98. productions by james stang, of which i had never heard before. i don't know what he had to do with brass tacks besides the same label, but they get a shout out in "serious".
"The first G.C.P album “The Turf’s Hot” followed with JB and his best friend and recording partner Toba Chung as the main features. He also executive produced the album, funding all of the recording and pressing and securing a PMD deal through Nuff Entertainment. The album was sold nationwide at major retailers.The deal resulted in appearances and performances on MuchMusic, and the release of their first video for the single “Crime Hits.” Shortly after, everything was shelved when a number of the main members of G.C.P went to prison. During this time, JB. released a number of solo tracks. Television and film producers also came knocking and several of his recordings were featured in Canadian and US productions."
jb is still out there and even released a track called "fire in ya eyes" with the game, which is pretty cool too:
i like all three tracks on this 12". definitely a good 12" to own.
J.A.B 12" '981. SERIOUS
2. MOVEMENTS
3. GHETTO FLOWS
enjoy
