Jungle Brothers - J. Beez Wit the Remedy

Sick Good

Totally experimental. Beats change smoothly. Bridges go on too long in a good way and become vamps. Choruses come in at odd moments. A couple songs at the end are sick freestyle. There are great soul moments, funk moments, reverb/echo moments, turntablist moments, and even pure noise moments. Check out unprecedented "Spittin Wicked Randomness" and "Jimmy Weighs a Ton." This is genius stuff for sure. May 24, 2007

experimental old school sound

this album make mi the same effect when I heard the second album of DIVINE STYLER spirr..1992.The direction that take JUNGLE BROTHERS in year 1993 was a surprise but it function I think it's the more underground album of JB's and the strangest for the hears electro sound very speed this is an old school def jux also if you love this style tcheck releasing hypnotical gaces of ORGANIZED KONFUSION

a bold new step

this is one of the weirdest and most experimental rap albums made in the early 90's. J. Beez Wit The Remedy is a bold and daring record that was way ahead of it's time and no doubt left many mainstream hip hop fans (and many Jungle Brothers fans) scratching their heads in confusion. this incarnation of Jungle Brothers featured the insane hip hop artist Sensational in their ranks and that might explain some of the less than common styles represented here. the production of tracks like "Spittin Wicked Randomness" and "For The Headz At Company Z" seem to hint at appreciation of experimental industrial music and contain a very hallucinagenic affect. it sounds like De La Soul got trapped inside a nuclear chemical plant. a very underrated and underheard album.

Still Way Ahead of It's Time

J. Beez Wit the Remedy is an incredibly interesting mosiac of samples, ryhmes, and styles. This record was originally produced by Bill Laswell, however the initial recordings were so experimental and off-kilter that Warner Brothers felt the need to re-record some of the tracks. I have heard some of the unreleased recordings on the 10" 'Crazy Wisdom Masters' which is totally sick, but this final version of the record is still amazing. Brooklyn MC, Sensational, even appears on the record under his original moniker, Torture. This is one of the most entertaining records I have ever heard...even though it is missing some of the orginal tracks. May 7, 2005
