R.J. met his future band-mate, Technique, in a sophomore honors math class where Tech, a spoken word artist at heart, spotted R.J. writing lyrics in class rather than taking notes. The two quickly realized they shared a growing passion for music, lyricism and respect for the art of emceeing; a bond was soon formed and the two agreed to start making music together.
Over the years, both artists have honed their abilities and as a group, developed a unique and eclectic sound. To achieve this, the group uses powerful messages, raw storytelling abilities and thought-provoking lyricism while never sacrificing their sense of humor or ability to rock a party. Coming off 2010's well received Crash Sanna, the Windy City duo's most recent full-length project, Gosu, showcases the group's ability to evolve their sound while still maintaining a sonically cohesive album.

Cherry pie back
Pull up with the gat
Percocets on my ass
I just smoked the gas
Roll up out the bath, Tussionex on me
And I'm scratching on my ass
I just smoked the gas
And I'm scratching on my ass
I just smoked the gas
Roll up out the bath, Tussionex on me
And I'm scratching on my ass
I only smoke KK
My dick like a AK
Cut these hoes like KaySlay
Duck these hoes like Day Day
And then come back like layaway
Fuck her on the first night
I don't do no day dates
I drive old schools
No Wraith, VIP we hold weight
AOD we blow K
Smoke and kill OJ
Big G you a lower case
Get jammed, lawyer throw the case
I don't know the name, I don't know the face
Uh try me that's a no-no
Fuck around, goons be on your top just like a Go-Pro
Them pounds we gon' blow those
We count it all then throw it up in slow-mo
I'm riding in my low-low
Molly Jackie Tan
Cherry pie back
Pull up with the gat
Percocets on my ass
I just smoked the gas
Roll up out the bath, Tussionex on me
And I'm scratching on my ass
I just smoked the gas
Roll up out the bath, Tussionex on me
And I'm scratching on my ass
I just smoked the gas
Roll up out the bath, Tussionex on me
And I'm scratching on my ass
Yellow banana purchase it with Phantom
Jackie Tuss hand me a booth from Atlanta
Bust your shirt open like Tony Montana
Maison Margiela boot right up in Manor
Wiz Khalifa da reefer, smoke by the pound
Drunk on Juicy J like I'm on the brown
Touching that Hi-Tech, I sipping on Actavis
Back to the future we triple-cup now
Flipping in Mr Blue Benjamins
Sir with that scrappin' we double down
Ferragamo buckle, buckle down
Jackie Tan but I ain't Bobby Brown
Buy some term, trap that Chinatown
Hit the road I'm trapping in your city
Tussin that pint he sipping it
Pocket loaded with Blue Benjamins
I'm gon' buy another kidney
Rolling Stone, Bobby, Whitey
Gas batch got us pimpin'
Pop the shit Oprah Winfrey
Stepping the star them Givenchy
Jeffrey bad, Mr. Benson
Dropping bags off in the trenches
Doing the dash in the Bentley
Longway bitch
Molly Jackie Tan
Cherry pie back
Pull up with the gat
Percocets on my ass
I just smoked the gas
Roll up out the bath, Tussionex on me
And I'm scratching on my ass
I just smoked the gas
Roll up out the bath, Tussionex on me
And I'm scratching on my ass
I just smoked the gas
Roll up out the bath, Tussionex on me
And I'm scratching on my ass

Purple punch
Getting lit

Talking money
OG killa skunk
No crack no dutch
Niggas know I smoke them papers

Ain't no shortcuts with me,
If you ain't working that ass
Things in life don't come free

Two mill in the house
A hundred stacks in the sofa

Ten racks is a coster

The lyrics to “Jackie” by R.J. and Technique are about drugs, money, and violence. The song often references a variety of drugs, such as Molly, Tussionex, and Percocets, with Jackie Tan being slang for crack cocaine. The lyrics also talk about driving old school cars and holding weight at VIP clubs, indicating that the artists are involved in illegal activities. The themes of violence are evident in lines about pulling up with a gun and ducking hoes.
The repetition of the hook “Molly Jackie Tan, cherry pie back” reinforces the drug theme and contrasts with the talk of money and violence. The overall message of the song seems to be about the lavish lifestyle that comes with illegal money and the dangers it can bring.
