Miami-based rapper JT Money has made a triumphant return to the music scene with the release of his seventh studio album, ‘Immortal’. The album, which dropped on Independence Day, marks the end of a three-year hiatus and represents a new direction for the veteran artist while staying true to his Miami bass roots.
‘Immortal’ is a 15-track LP that features an impressive lineup of collaborations, including Rick Ross, Trick Daddy, CeeLo Green, Trap Beckham, and a reunion with Poison Clan. These collaborations, some of which were 30 years in the making, showcase JT Money’s enduring influence and connections in the hip-hop world.
The album serves as a testament to JT Money’s status as a pioneer in the Miami bass movement, the first subgenre of Southern hip-hop. Tracks like ‘Big Gulp’ and ‘A$$ Back’ stay true to his iconic sound, with the latter even becoming the theme song for ‘MTV CRIBS’. The album also features a remix of his classic ‘Ho Problems’, reimagined as ‘Mo Problems’.
One of the standout tracks on the album is ‘Miami Mt. Rushmore’, featuring Rick Ross and Trick Daddy. In this song, JT Money boldly asserts his place in hip-hop history, asking, ‘How can you not say my name when you make your lists?’ and stating, ‘More than 30 years, a player done been through it. Out of 50 MCs, how many did I influence?’
The album also marks a significant milestone with the first Poison Clan record in over 30 years. This reunion, along with collaborations with newer artists, underscores JT Money’s goal of bridging the gap between old school and new generation hip-hop artists. This aim is further exemplified in tracks like ‘Been There, Done That’ and ‘Best Is Yet To Come’, featuring CeeLo Green.
JT Money’s return with ‘Immortal’ is not just a personal achievement but a significant moment for Southern hip-hop. As one of the best lyricists of the Miami bass movement, his insights into South Florida life have been a defining feature of his music. This new album continues that tradition while bringing his sound into 2024 with a mix of bass-heavy trap beats, street lyrics, and even a jook song.
The release of ‘Immortal’ comes at a time when discussions about the evolution of hip-hop and the connections between different generations of artists are particularly relevant. By bringing together established names like Rick Ross and Trick Daddy with newer artists, JT Money is actively participating in and shaping these conversations.
For fans of Southern hip-hop, ‘Immortal’ offers a unique blend of nostalgia and contemporary sounds. It serves as a reminder of the enduring influence of the Miami bass movement while also demonstrating its continued relevance in today’s music landscape.
‘Immortal’ is now available on all digital streaming and download platforms, allowing fans old and new to experience JT Money’s latest musical journey. As the title suggests, this album is JT Money’s effort to ensure his artistry and musical catalogue remain timeless, solidifying his place in hip-hop history.
