About
That title might sound audacious, but in 2002, Jay and Kells were truly at the top of their games. Their first collaborative album toasts to their success, with freaky, futuristic beats crafted by the Trackmasters. The production duo’s signature Spanish guitar is the foundation for sexy club banger “Get This Money.” But Lil’ Kim steals the show on the handclap-happy “Shake Ya Body,” delivering not only the album’s best hook, but also its flossiest verse: “From car dealers to Macy’s, the cashiers embrace me.”
