the way jacka an hus be singin an rappin....that shits new to mainstream liteweight....

barney

[DippedinButter]

jacka's first nationwide release? when is it? i dont know cuz the jacka aint made no kinda noise outside the bay. at least i havent heard much. he needs to be in XXL's SHOW & PROVE

 

[I-ROCC]

all of jaka"s albums have been natinwide releases

 

[Gas One]

when is it? i dont know cuz the jacka aint made no kinda noise outside the bay.

...i knew about jacka by him fucking with an east coast rapper named cormega...i didnt even pay attention to mob figaz back then..

 

[RealRich]

He's a good look for the Bay.

 

[Really Treal]

i dont know cuz the jacka aint made no kinda noise outside the bay.

Shit i was hella suprised when some of my family from the east coast called askin about him.

 

[el!te*]

it said it in an article on his myspace. . .he says it himself. . .tear gas is gona b his first album off fontana/universal records, n its gona b his 1st nationally distributed album

 

[Kapricorn45]

Mob Figaz should come out wit a national album cuz all of them together juz vibe betta than anybody out there right now

 

[Golden Mean Frank]

I think Jacka meant that this album will have more promotion into it than ever. I mean promotion on a national level, which his name will be out there more than ever. His last album was released nationwide. Look for a huge promo push with Tear Gas.

...i knew about jacka by him fucking with an east coast rapper named cormega...i didnt even pay attention to mob figaz back then..

Life with cormega yeah.

Jacka is versatile, he makes all kinds of songs. And he makes good songs for the ladies too, that should help mainstream appeal. He sings and raps, that's better than anyone else can.

 

[Gas One]

he also put out a mixtape with lil keke from houston.

i think hes had more visability than alot of bay area rappers, IMO

 

[DippedinButter]

my fault, i didnt know folks in the east knew bout the jacka

 

[leftcoast415]

I can't wait for that next album....The Jack Artist is my favorite album of all time.

 

[martin_07n]

The Jacka one of the few cats thats holding it real good for the bay area rap scene.

 

[fillyacup]

cuz he remain on that MOB SHIT.....

even on a hyphy track he still MOBISH

 

[Music Nfluenced]

Hopefully Jacka will get recognized big on this album. Jacka on a Neptunes beat! He'd kill the fuck out of it.

 

[Gas One]

let me ask all you bay area residents a question.

i wanted to make a thread about this but ill put it in here.

if jacka, or even hus, was to release a "best of" album on a mainstream level, would you be mad? like the fact that youve heard 70 or maybe 100% percent of the songs?

would you talk shit?
or could you respect it?

edit: i in no way make decisions for any of them, im just posing a hypothetical question here.

 

[Music Nfluenced]

I'm just outside the bay, I'm not if my opinion counts as much on this one but it's 50/50 for me. On one hand it would be good for bay area music in general and the Jacka/Mob Figaz promotion. On the other hand, he wouldn't be underground anymore. You'd hear fools on some "Oh I like that NEW rapper The Jacka" once he's played nationwide.

 

[germmtz]

So long as the music doesn't lose touch with the mob mentality.
