I remembered buying the cassette at a mall in Augusta, Ga. and hearing it several hours later in Atlanta in summer 1992. This was after Jump finished its long 8-week run at No. 1 and when Warm it Up was starting off. This was a solid first album for them as they had a unique rap style. Sometimes Daddy Mac was better that Mack Daddy on the rapping. The music was very catchy, especially Jump, but I liked the funky Warm It Up and its rollicking sound and bass. It's one of Jermaine Dupri's best produced songs and ranks right up there with his current songs for other artists. Dupri gives such dynamic music for Kris Kross for this effort. One other song that stands out is the danceable Party at the album's very end. I would have done away with the silly I Missed the Bus. And Dupri even samples an Ice Cube song with Cube's "Drop an old school beat!" line. You just can't miss that moment when you hear it on the album! The album's very Atlanta driven and really represented the hip-hop sounds from there several years before Lil' Jon and Outkast took over. I thought the backward jeans style was a bit much, as a lot of young people were wearing their clothes like that for a year until it got played out. Kris Kross' voices changed on later albums, but it made them better. This is a good first effort that sold very huge in its prime. It's another unique album that came out in the 90s.
