Produced by Chicago’s Tony Baines.
BBU wrote “Jumpers” in response to being told that they had to relocate to NYC in order to make it by “industry professionals” after their hit “Chi Don’t Dance” made waves in the blogosphere last year. Says Epic, “We left that meeting like, ‘Um yeah, there is no way in hell we leaving Chicago. TREATED!” He raps, “The recipe to success is to roll over / move to NY and claim that you a New Yorker / I’m from the ‘Go homie, home of Hoover, not Hova.” Over handclaps and a bluesy, twangy electric guitar sample, BBU’s poignant rhymes and “go f*ck yourself” attitude convey each member’s different message, while staying on the same wavelength and proving them to be a unique force to be reckoned with in the hip hop world.
