No matter how good an album Jenny Death turned out to be (this coming from a guy who thought it was pretty great), it never would have been able to live up to the level of hype that its absence built up to. It seemed like the perfect album that never existed in the minds of many DG fans, so its release inevitably grounded it in some sense of reality and brought it back to earth. Frankly, I'm not surprised that the hype for it died out so quickly. The up side, at this stage, is that you can take a step back from its legacy and notoriety and look at it for what it actually is as an album.
As for the album itself, Jenny Death is one of the few parts of a double album that I separate so clearly in my mind from the rest, partly due to its release and mostly to due with the music. It was such a huge step forward after Niggas on the Moon, it was basically Death Grips on 10. If not The Money Store, I could call it the go-to DG album for newcomers.
