Today DubCNN adds to it's growing Reviews section with another fresh addition. This time we have critiqued the recently released Jazzy Jeff project, "The Return Of The Magnificent." The album offers a generous dose of conscious Hip-Hop, and sees Jeff tale helm as producer. "The Return Of The Magnificent" also boasts high-profile appearances from the likes of Method Man and Kardinal Offishall . In this review we decide if such collaborations are ultimately worth checking out.

"The Return Of The Magnificent" receives the Dub Quotable: "Jazzy Jeff may be immortalized as the person hauled off the Bel-Air property, but those who refuse to take ‘Jazzy Jeff, the Hip-Hop honorary’ to heart are doing themselves a great disservice."

Don't sleep on this release. In my opinion, those looking for well crafted, substantial Hip-Hop should definitely pick up this.

Good review, although I would probably have mentioned Practice using the same sample as Main Source's 'Looking At The Front Door' in the verses, as this, in my opinion, is what makes it an incredibly enjoyable old school throwback, almost as much as the subject matter itself.
