There's nothing about Remy! (2 and 1/2 stars) Submitted on: 2007-07-05 |
|
On the real when I first heard Remy on Big Pun's Yeaahh Baby album, I thought she was cool plus I heard some underground stuff of hers that wasnt bad. But the difference between the person I heard on Yeaah Baby and the one I'm hearing on this album is the one on Pun's posthumous album had potential, this person right here is just flat out lazy. Listen to the singles she released(Conceited, Whuteva and Feels So Good). Weak! The Good: She spits some decent bars on She's Gone and the David Banner-assisted I'm. She spits well over a sinister beat on Bilingual(which feautures Ivy Queen). Even though the morbid s*** she was saying on that track would make Eminem blush she put effort into it. On What's Going On(featuring Keyshia Cole), Remy talks about being pregnant and the stress she went through and Keyshia Cole wasnt too shabby on the chorus. Still is another track where tells stories of her problems with her baby father, her mother and stepfather. What's Going On and Still are the best songs on the album because they are something different from the norm that she gives you throughout the album. Honorable Mention: Thug Love(I could have sworn Lil Kim and Twista had a song by the same title) featuring Big Pun(RIP) and Guilty. The Bad: Tight is a certified snoozer. Even though the beat provided by Cool and Dre was nice, Remy's lyrics and that hook leave something to be desired. Crazy is another snoozer but this time the beat is just as weak as Remy's rhyming. Ne-Yo provides a good chorus for Feels So Good and the beat was fairly decent but Remy made the song weak with her incessant droning. Her first single Whuteva was doodoo, her rhymes on the track were lazy and lines like /Terror Squad aint Brady Bunch/ and I aint Marsha/ make every claim that she is the best thing since sliced bread seem laughable. The Ugly: Conceited is the worst track on the album! The corny beat provided by Scott Storch, the infantile lyrics provided by Remy and why does this track sound like a female version of Right Said Fred's I'm Too Sexy(Im too sexy for my shirt anyone?)? Conceited is twice as corny as I'm Too Sexy. Lights, Camera, Action is another throwaway track with stale commercial-type production and lazy lyrics. Secret Location takes the number two spot as the worst tracks on the album. Boring coke rhymes over a rinky-dinky beat. Priceless.
Bottom Line: File Remy Ma's There's Something About Remy under rightfully slept-on albums. Besides the songs I mentioned in the good section, she doesnt offer much but lazy rapping over decent beats. How many times does she mention wearing Pink Tims in one song? How many times does she mention a basement with a stripper pole in it throughout the album? Why all the hype around her when she doesnt sound as good as she did on Pun's last album or on her underground stuff? When I first heard her early s*** I thought she was was tight but after hearing this album and that garbage a** Terror Squad True Story album I seriously doubt that she wrote those rhymes. She's conceited, she has no reason! |

OK...Not To Be Conceited About Submitted on: 2007-03-08 |
|
| To be honest I was expecting more from Remy with her debut with all her buzz on the hit records "Lean Back", "Yeah,Yeah,Yeah", you would think she would have better marketing and sales. If she would've did a video with Neyo for "So Good" she would've at least hit Gold status. Terror Squad fail to do their job with promoting Remy Ma. Good luck next go-round. |

REMY ROCKS! Keep on "Rem-iniscing" with this album! Submitted on: 2006-12-04 |

| She's conceited, she got a reason... I LOVE Remy! She has really clever rhymes in her rapping - that's the reason why I also love Shawnna, Lil' Kim, and Rasheeda. I just love when rappers have found their own style of rapping and have found their nitche. Other rappers' rap styles and rhyming that I love and are clever are Pitbull, Jim Jones, and Ludacris. I hope Remy's around for a while, she's awesome. I LOVE the songs "Conceited," "Tight," "Whateva," "I'm," and "Lights, Camera, Action" just to name my top favorites. I'm glad Terror Squad gave Remy a good start, and now that Remy's released her 1st solo album I can't wait to hear her next one. This album is awesome but there were more slower songs than I would have liked (and I also don't care for the skits, which are really just filler), so that's why I gave it 4 out of 5 stars - no offense, Remy I still love ya! If more of the album were upbeat songs, then I would've given it 5 stars. Thanks, Rem - you rock and we love you! :) |

Just a fake Lil Kim Submitted on: 2006-09-22 |
|
| I had the diaster of seeing Remy Ma perform. She is trying to be a fake Lil Kim. She was cool when she wasnt free style but when she raps its all about sleeping with somebody else man. Lil Kim does that but in such a better way. Remy Ma is not going to be around for long. I couldnt stomach the rest of her performance it was way to much vuglar. I mean she cuss more than the guys. I think that she will not be around for long since Lil Kim is out!!! |
