I like Ms. Jade, but she's being seriously overrated here.
1) She never really had a hit. The music was dope, but she didn't have a legitimate hit song.
2) Comparing her to Tink or vice versa at this point is pre-mature. Ms. Jade has an album and a few mixtapes. A lot of people have only heard 1.5-2 songs of Tink's while Jade has more material.
3) It's funny that after all these years and of all the discussions on female rappers, Ms. Jade all of sudden becomes topic after another Timbo produced female rapper gains steam.
dawg, in bulk and volume over time passing..
tink actually has way more work than ms jade.
especially, considering how mismanaged and delayed the actual ms jade album was.
as it was thrown out there with no real pr after a horrific delay.
one of the worst outside of paula perry on the female emcee side.
for a hopeful highly skilled female emcee, with a commercial appeal and mainline direction to draw from timbo.
plus, considering how much work.
tink has in comparison to ms. jade with no actual ramp up in skill like that.
let alone on jade's level at any point in jade's career.
it is easy to ascertain that jade is better.
plus, if tink was an actual prodigy as an emcee.
instead of just another bobby brown/ricky bell mca type model singer who raps.
like some female warped version of a single force md's.
erroneously, given a false claim as the next goat of the female rap game..
she would have been light years ahead of every timbo rapper, ever.
including ms jade, bubba and an rnb fueled missy.
when, real talk,....
she does not write rnb records on missy level at all, and never will.
nor, does she even rhyme on ms jade's level.
she does not even rhyme and construct records consistently as well as nyemiah supreme.
the actual real talent with timbo.
her content based record that is about ferguson is cut and past variation of lauren hill's cadence on that thing to the biter t.
this is coming from the only person to recognize tink's first grassroots hit.
before anyone even in the city was on it.
let alone the actual board,.....
there is no metric or showcase of skill to show that tink is as good as the bandwagoners have said.
tink is not even as skilled as the best new female emcee from the noisey/drill pr infatuated era.
who is viscious v, and viscious v does not have any of tink's resources on any level at all.
yet, visious v is a way better emcee, than tink.
this whole shyt, is all just because of a feature with ross, and jay.
two anemically skilled rappers.
one, who was never dope and a early third cycle incarnation big impersonator/impressionist, and biter.
the other in jay, big's biggest biter and the biggest style/morph unoriginal biter in rap history to chart.
who has not shown or killed't a verse on par with what would be connected as jay being skilled.
jay has not been skilled since volume iii.
as we don't know when or where lupe picked up the pen game slack for jay.
as first and 15th was operating when bp dropped.
plus, the black album,..was written by lupe.
so, this whole infatuation with tink is all bandwagon semantics and bullshyt.
you can't fool,...
