However, Jean Grae on her album This Week makes it look simple, substituting overly sexual lines with vigorous rhymes, especially in songs like "A-alikes" and "Watch Me". Don't think that she had to substitute her femininity to do this though. Take "Supa Luv", where she narrates her attraction over some "tall drink of water" while contemplating her future with him, similar to a romance novel. Backed by the soulful samples of 9th Wonder, Jean once again displays her remarkable talents for the world to witness.   STREAM "THIS WEEK" NOW   1. Intro (Feat
