Jim Crow was a rap group from Atlanta made up of Polow da Don, Cutty Cartel, and Mr. Mo. [1] [2] [3]
Their debut album peaked at No. 99 on Billboard's Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart. [4] Its first single, "That Drama (Baby's Mama)", featuring Too Short, peaked at No. 25 on the Hot Rap Songs chart. [5] [4]
Slick Rick and Sean Paul were among the guests who appeared on the group's second album, Right Quick. [6]
Vibe called the debut "exceptional," writing that the group "come off lovely in the lyrics department, rocking rushed conversational flows and tight rhymes that are often filled with satire." [7] The Atlanta Constitution deemed it "a debut outstanding in its near sample-free production and well-rounded in its storytelling." [8] The Republican concluded that "there's a synchronicity to the rapid rhymes of Mr. Mo, Cartel and Polow, a solid flow that adds depth to tracks like the tough-talkin' 'Bandits', and the dope 'n' drink groove-fest 'Low, Low'." [5]
Billboard thought that "the group's controversial name is a tip-off to its secret weapon—they're serious jokesters ... Not for the light-hearted, Crow's Nest is an amalgam of bluesy beats and tragic parables." [9] The Cincinnati Post awarded the debut an A+, and determined that "Mr. Mo, Cartel and Polow display dizzying rhyme excursions draped over inventively thumping beats packed with soulful hooks ... The group comfortably alternates among raw hard-core, party anthems, comical tracks and thought-provoking fare." [10]
