ANGIE MARTINEZ
Mi AmorUp Close and Personal0Elektra
7.0
Rap/NY/Thugged OutIn all honesty I would love to give Angie a higher rating, just because as a radio DJ she stepped up and tried to do her thing. There's no doubt the woamn can flow, but her album is disjointed.. I don't think she spenta lot of time with it to make sure each song was absolutely dope.. I also never got a feel for her as an artist. It was like she went literally from coast to coast and tried to fit in to whatever sound she was working with.. Some styles and sounds work better then ever. Angie needed to simply come off and do her thing and not try to be everybody's friend. She winds up pleasing no one.. She needed more cuts like Mi Amor and New York New York.. The down south and west coast stuff she should've left alone.
