Trina’s latest studio creation is titled Still Da Baddest. Trina seems to be a real cool chick….but her music…..ummm no. Materialistic, hood, raunchy and parental advisory are perfect descriptions of this album. For whatever reason, I was under the impression that this album would be different from her passed projects. This is her 4th CD, she’s 29, and she’s had a couple of serious relationships…so I was expecting a more grown up Trina…but I guess this is just who she is musically. I do like a few tracks on this CD, like “Single Again” and “I Got a Thang For You”, which she did with Keyshia Cole. But the rest of it….I mean, ok Trina, we know you think you’re the baddest b*tch. We know you have a big butt. We know you like to have sex ( who doesn’t). But do you have to repeat these things over and over and over through the WHOLE album, WE GET IT, TRUST ME. Is there nothing else to talk about in her world? She has talent, pretty as she want to be, and living in one of the most popular cities in the U.S.! What happened to being a lady?! I read an article on her once and she was saying how she didn’t want to be looked at like a sex object any longer. Uh, Ok?? And don’t get me wrong, Trina seems to carry herself pretty well, but when she’s in the studio she apparently has a one track mind. All though, I have to give her credit for track 11. “Phone Sexx” is one of the sexiest songs I’ve heard in a while, she did her thing with that one. I just can’t wrap my ears around the rest. I mean, I like (love) the things she’s rapping about probably a lil more than the next chick but Trina is off the chain with it! She makes me blush, and that ain’t easy. I like Trina so I’ll still keep hope alive for the next album. Until then I’ll just keep tracks 4, 6, and 11 on repeat.
I’m out like VCRs yall!
