Yeah, listen to the lyrics We are the ones prophesized to return My main concern is for all of you to learn How to live, yes through the lyrics I give and send my friend This age is coming to an end Not the world, but the age is ending Ending, listen to the astrological message I'm sending I'm sending, tell em Truth is truth, whether or not you like me We are living now in the age of Pisces When Pisces is over, at the year two thousand When the Sun of God, changes his house and enters the Age of Aquarius The Sun of God as man is hilarious (okay) When you think of Jesus, think of the Sun The flaming Sun, that's where they stole this concept from Stop believing and read your bible logically The new testament is really old astrology Jesus is the son of God no lie But they might be talking about the Sun up in the sky The Sun, that hangs on the cross of the zodiac The zodiac with twelve signs to be exact Each sign is a house, and you should keep in mind Each house equals, a period of time The time, two thousand years and that's a fact It's called an age or a house in the zodiac The twelve disciples, are twelve months of reason The four gospels signify the four seasons When Jesus fed the multitude with two fishes It signified the Age of Pisces, not fish or dishes If you read the bible astrologically it's clearer (no doubt) The next age will be the age of the water-bearer It's called the Age of Aquarius (word) When logic and truth will take care of us So in this age, of spiritual dignity You'll see a rise in femininity and creativity, meshed with masculinity You got to get with me, this is your true her-story (rrryyy!) Do you wanna go higher...

I've been reading about MC Search over at Press Rewind if I Haven't Blown Your Mind and I got inspired to do a little introspective. Today I wanted to focus on a little known producer/emcee you've probably heard before but didn't know anything about him. I'm talking about Jesse West also known as 3rd Eye. He's one of those guys that often gets overlooked when people reminisce about the golden era of hip-hop. He started out in '89 with his solo LP "No Prisoners" on Motown which you'd think would have done well due to the fact he had 3 singles off it "I Saw You", "No Prisoners", and "Renegade". Alas it didn't and from there he moved onto work with The Genius and then to the Bad Boy Camp. What blows my mind is he did one of the dopest hip-hop beats of ALL TIME and I was sleeping on the man.
Anyways back to The Genius. West did the notorious track "Come Do Me" which...wasn't really the GZA's style. Genius went into it a little bit over at Oh Word. After that debacle he popped up on a dope dope Heavy D and the Boyz LP called "Blue Funk". Pete Rock naturally did a couple joints on the album as well as Primo.

After that he got mixed in with Puffy and worked on a Mary J. track called Reminisce. The joint has that early R&B cheese vibe, but he flipped it with the T.R.O.Y. horns and CL drops a dope verse on it to compensate for any wackness. Look for ithere. From there he remixed Super Cat on a cut called "Dolly My Baby". He did 2 different beats which Puffy 'helped' on. Puffy on a remix is always suspect so I'll default toward giving Jesse the credit.

From there he collabed with PMD, Nine, and Ill Biskits which I won't get into. I'm curious about the group 24/7 with him and Nine. Don't know a whole lot of info about that. If any body has any info drop hit me up! It seems like he really slowed down after this and didn't drop much material. He did the classic KRS joint and then one of my favourite Xzibit cuts ever "What You See is What You Get".
