His albums suck because he never stays true to himself. He should've just got it through his head that he's not a commercial rapper and stuck to making grimey NY street shit and catered to his target audience. But every album after his debut was full of different regional sounds, R&B hooks, and mainstream features that left his album sounding like bad compilations.

Jada has a ton of talent, but he's like Joe Budden. Like Crooked I. Like a lot of these Mixtape Rappers that are dying to appeal commercially. They think rapping over a Club beat will sell more records. But, that's not when they're at their best. Their best is straight spitting and nothing else. It's funny that you bring up Fab. Fab is probably the only Mixtape rapper that actually makes crossover tracks and doesn't sound corny doing it.
Agreed, Fab still falls into the category of having trouble putting together a quality album though.
Jadakiss > Joe Budden and Crooked I (I know I'm gonna catch some slugs over Crooked)
Fab and Jada have the same problem with making albums. Although atleast Fab out out a really dope album in Street Dreams. The more I think about it, Jada is only good for verses, Lox is perfect for him. Somebody wake me up when Jada or Crook can match or top Mood Muzik 3 or 4...
If you gonna tell me all the time you Top 5 DOA, damn it I want to hear some DOA quality shit. Still waiting
Nobody doubts Jadakiss talent. But he's certainly never realized his potential. Probably the best work he ever did was the work he put in for the Puffy's No Way Out album back in 97. That was a classic.
fuck Timberland. Your either West Coast, or you are conscious, or you are grimey. If you aren't either of those 3 things then you contributed to the downfall of hip-hop/R&B
i love jadakiss but he ain't seeing Crooked
