Jurassic 5 - Work It Out

[jdmasta289]

Featuring Dave Matthews, it is the first single from their new album Feedback.

"What's Golden" and "High Fidelity" were decent tracks from their 2002 album.  I've never listened to much of their earlier material; but I realized that they have made quite a name for themselves on the Warped Tour and Lollapolooza over the past several years.

This doesn't do much at all.  Sounds tailor made for AAA and, possibly, Hot AC.  It could hit top 40 as soon as next week.

WOCL was playing this during a lot of the summer. I didn't think I'd like it much knowing Jurassic 5 is a rap act, and whenever it would start to come on, I changed the station. Having never heard any of their previous material, even with or without the Dave Matthews influence, once I finally listened to the entire thing, I realized its a decent song. I'm sure it will do well if put on the pop format.

I've listened to this a few times now and I'm still totally unaffected by this song. I don't think it'd do very well as a pop song because it's not really the type of hip-hop that pop is looking for; it's boring, it really doesn't have a hook that they can make a ring tone out of, and pop could care less if it's artistic or not.

I liked "What's Golden?" quite a bit and the DMB was the band I grew up with. Too bad.

(ps. jdmasta, you linked everyone to a Ladytron song.)

Link fixed - why do I always seem to have a problem with those? They didn't have a direct link on AllAccess, so I had to change it myself

Nobody's mentioned its Bush administration-bashing video yet. It's clever and funny the first time, but I was surprised how quickly it got old to me.
