After the New York underground outfit Natural Resource split in the late 1990s, Jean Grae took a few years to emerge and receive the proper industry recognition. Still, a substantial number of her solo recordings from the early 2000s failed to make it onto any LP. THE ORCHESTRAL FILES brings together the best of these cuts, showcasing Jean's talents for wordy, intricate rhymes. This deluxe edition features a bonus CD that includes a miscellaneous collection of Jean's many collaborations and appearances alongside such artists as Talib Kweli, Guru, and Da Beatminerz.

Album Review

Jean Grae, the seminal "Fem-Cee," offers this 2 disc collection of rare, unreleased tracks along with the best of her renowned guest appearances recorded during the Orchestral/Babygrande label years. Currently a Blacksmith recording artist (Talib Kweli's label venture with Warner Brothers), "The Orchestral Files" highlights Jean's fiery wit and fierce delivery. With cumulative career scans approaching 55,000+ units, Jean has been closely affiliated with the seminal Roots crew and has enjoyed unprecedented press coverage for an independent artist, including the cover of URB Magazine, XXL, as well as an MTV's "Advance Warning" piece and much more. Previously available in single disc configuration for a very limited time (and with spotty distribution), the deluxe edition is the definitive offering of this legacy piece, incorporating (and chronicling) for the first time ever the best of Jean's guest appearances during the Babygrande/Orchestral years. Truly a valued historical entry in an already illustrious career, "The Orchestral Files: The Deluxe Edition" presents a defining snapshot of raw skill and memorable delivery in advance of Jean's forthcoming Blacksmith/Warner Brothers major label debut.
