Blidge on 'There's Only One' and the occasional appearances by the Flipmode Squad, as well as production work from Pete Rock and Dr. Diddy's turn on the dramatic 'Pass the Courvoisier', Mary J. Busta Rhymes can also make a good dance song, like the hypnotic 'What It Is', a fractured funk anthem that features robotic female vocals from Kelis and a slow beat consisting of clicks and snaps. 'As I Come Back' is a good example, featuring a sustained keyboard note droning on throughout the chorus with Busta rapping in his raspy style.
On Genesis, the beats seem darker and more synth-oriented, giving it an edge reminiscent of the bass-heavy G-funk sound. The fourth single from the album, 'Pass the Courvoisier Part II', peaked at #11 on the Billboard Hot 100. Released in 2001, the album debuted at #7 on the Billboard 200 and ultimately sold one million copies in the US and was certified platinum.

Power in Numbers picks up where their previous album left off, with a short double bass sample playing the same riff that the last song on Quality Control, "Swing Set", ended with. J5's sophomore major label offering does a good job at extending their sound. Two years after Jurassic 5's 2000 album, Quality Control, proved that B-boy-oriented retro-rap doesn't have to be corny, the group released their third studio album (second on a major label) Power In Numbers.
