View Full Version : I think JME...

22nd January '08, 04:44 PM
was doing big things in 06. He was moving in the right direction, making good music and built himself a large and varied fanbase (myspace work was alot). His releases in 06 did a lot for him and I thought he was heading for a lot of recognition, even breaking into mainstream.
I know he's been away making his album but anyone else agree the hype has just flopped. A lot of people who were raving about him when the mixtapes were dropin have switched now, including me.
Them simple as shit T-shirt bars/333 and constant repetition have pretty much turned him into a average second rate MC for me. Its like on Rinse, ud love Will, Trim, Goodz, GH to turn up and spit but if its just JME you think 'oh well, that will have to do then'.
Maybe the album will change my mind.

His hype died because he didn't have that much new material last year, the hype will build up this year when he drops his album.

Yeah hes not the best on the set
but hes the smartest MC out there.
if u listen closley to his bars hes content and intellect is above any one else imo
BUT his flow can be awful at times
and yeah his repetition nowadays is rather annoying but his album may just blow us all away.

I think he might be keeping the new album bars secret for until his new CD drops.
With someone with a mentality like JME, you know he's got a plan here.

whats_the_score?
22nd January '08, 06:10 PM
JME's ego is getting abit much for me at the mo, when he chats on the mic on Sunday it'd overly loooong. Which is a shame because I think in 06 he was fire and to be honest the t-shirt bars are letting him down. I hopw his album is of a very high standard, because I think he has got the talent to blow.
'nuum general
22nd January '08, 06:13 PM
you know when he releases another cd that the beats will be tight & there will be some decent concept tracks on there.

Back in '06 he was makin deep tracks and he seemed like a decent bloke. Now hes not doing anything (obviously working on the album) and hes gotten way too big for his boots and his attitiude is poor.

Yeah he would but he would not throw them on the floor in the first place.
I have never rated JME.
Some people have it some people don't and he does not have it.

hes hypes died down but hes still 1 of the biggest names in the scene. i think is album will flop with pure 333, and t-shirt bar like shit or (hopefully) be 1 of the biggest of the year with all the decent bars and beats hes been sitting on.
gingerchris
23rd January '08, 11:54 AM
I think he's gonna re up the levs with new album bars. Could the reason he keeps spitting the same old bars be cos he's saving his new ones for some fresh hype when the album drops? I hope so
S.Man
23rd January '08, 12:22 PM
When he came about he was ok.
He is smart but he is just the same as skepta, very basic wordplay.
I hope he is saving the gd stuff for his album but im not gunna get my hopes up!
GrimmyGrimGrim
23rd January '08, 12:23 PM
I can see this flopping, the expectations are so high.
Actually maybe he's dropping his levels on purpose so when his album drops it's better than everyone was expecting?
lol conspiracy therioes are alot.

JME has no hardly any talent.
People JME is smart because he told you he is smart.
The only thing JME is to me is a total blagger and hustler. and fair nuff to him.

I really doubt that his album will reflect on last year..
I reckon it'll be top 3 best material to drop this year to be honest.

He's trying to be TOO CREATIVE.
he needs to understand most ppl dont kno about all dis http/html/bandwith stuff.
I think hes trying to take grime into a place where its not ready to go yet.

jme's an entertainer still.
even if you dont like his music, you can still go on his blog and have a laugh and whatever, he puts alot of effort into his fans instead of mcs not saying alot incase they slip up and dont look like a badman anymore.
hyperfrank
24th January '08, 03:31 PM
Jme is doing his thing... ithink the overrrr exposure fucked him up a bit. Overall his mixtapes have been decent so. He's taken his time out to really get a proper fanbase and with that I think he has dropped levels BUTTT... for now I shall wait till I hear his album. I mean we don't know what he has in store for us.
D-Structo
24th January '08, 03:36 PM
jme needs to not turn up to radio and jus go away for a bit.
In most other genres.... you wont hear artists on radio etc all da time... dey make money off doing live performances *which jme DOES do* whilst working on a new album or after dere shows ae done dey start it.... being around a scene CONSTANTLY non stop makes people grow tiresome of the artist *highlightin hyperfranks point* . It's nice to let certain tunes sink in.... if you make a tune... and den u keep makin tune after tune.... they will become less memorable in my eyes.
I think devilman done sumin gd.... he went away and come bak **although its probably to do with other reasons** hes timed it well.

Which means that he is ahead of his time...
i believe this is true... esp in terms of his beats..
Wear my own garms beat >>>>>>>> most other grime beats

same with president t, big h and jendor.
i think jme's doing the right thing by saving his album and not playing it until it comes out, playing all the tunes before hand has ruined releases.
HypeKidd
24th January '08, 03:43 PM
He is more of an entertainer than an artist, i'm not being funny but he is the comedian of grime mcs. Who else plays Gears Of War whilst spitting on Tim & Barry..? Who walks around new york screaming Chipmunk and Griminal quotes at every person? Who else hangs on to a car going 40 miles an hour on roller skates and then shouts dun kno as he flies off? I still think he is sick but only because he is in my mind the most unique mc.

like skeptas.
he probably learnt something from that mixtape.
Hmm........i think i might have to start doing a blog lol..... it would help towards my journalism aspirations as well as the music ones.

24th January '08, 03:44 PM
exactly, but it probably got to the point where skepta had to put duppy on his album because it created such a buzz for grime fans he wanted it to spread further.

When did he say that?
I remember him saying, "WHAT DID HE SAYYY, Big up Griminal"
LOL At the guy who said Devilman did good going away and coming back, i Heard his diss for Skepta the other day, he used the same bars from 05/06 just put skepta at end of all bars
I think JME is Top 5 Grime artist, stop hating.

Not really, the important bit was he didn't realise the bars he were saying was P Moneys and not Griminals.
