This is my favorite Jean Grae song of all-time and I have thought of a concept for a music video for it. It would open up with the song starting and a slow motion shot of Jean walking into a medieval town as a bard (complete with a lute and music book with the album cover title on front of it in “Olde English text).” She is hooded and her face is never fully shown during the whole video (only teaser glimpses until the end but then only the bottom half of her face is shown). Then she walks into a tavern and everyone turns to look at her. The previous performing bard is booed off the stage (complete with tomatoes and trash thrown as well) as she walks in and she talks to the barkeep (and he eventually introduces her as the next person to preform). She begins her performance and the camera is first-person and we see the crowds faces and reactions as they go from non-entertained to enjoying her performance. While she is preforming the crowd members are also putting “gold or silver pieces” into her sack she carries her things in and it gets continuously full during the course of her performance. Near the end of her performance she bows after the cheers and picks up her full sack of coins and her things and leaves and right when she hits the door she turns around and flashes a mouth full of gold both top and bottom rows. And the camera freeze frames and that’s the end of the video.

Jean Grae's Jeanius Album Anniversary
Jean has recorded an unreleased album with celebrated North Carolina producer 9th Wonder, of Little Brother fame, entitled Jeanius. This unfinished record was leaked on the internet, and subsequently work was stopped on this album. However, at the release party for 9th Wonder’s Dream Merchant Volume 2 album she stated that Jeanius was still going to be released. This album was eventually released first through Zune Live Marketplace two weeks before its disc release on July 8, 2008. The album features the track “My Story”, about the abortion she had as a teenager. Her rapping on the album was described by Robert Christgau as “remarkable for its rapidity, clarity and idiomatic cadence. The writing has a good-humored polysyllabic literacy.”. Elsewhere, it’s been reported that her proposed fourth album, provisionally titled Phoenix has gone into production. It has been reported by several camp insiders that 9th Wonder will handle the lion’s share of the production duties with unknown UK producer Passion hifi and NY resident Clinikal providing a beat each. Read more about Jean Grae here.
