Girl Interrupted (album)

Girl Interrupted is the only studio album by Pennsylvania-based rapper Ms. Jade. It was released through Timbaland's ill-fated Beat Club Records, an imprint of Interscope Records on November 5, 2002.[1] The album was produced primarily by Timbaland with other contributions by The Neptunes, Joe Staxx, Don & Jay and Maurice Wilcher. On the album, "Ching Ching" is the edited version despite the album's parental advisory sign. An explicit version of the song was only available through the promotional or official vinyl single release.

Allmusic gave the album a two and a half out of five stars and said that Ms. Jade "benefits from Timbaland's signature, laid-back beats."[2] Miles Lewis of Blender compared Ms. Jade to fellow Philadelphia rapper Eve. He also wrote that the song "Ching Ching" (featuring Nelly Furtado) is "contagious" and praises Timbaland's "expert production".[3]
