Angie Martinez was really feelin herself back in the day with this music sh!t

[Michael's Black Son]

i guess being at Hot 97 in the 90s was probably the dream non-rapper/singer job in hip hop back then, but who the fukk convinced Angie that rapping was a good idea?

Peep these struggle bars and that Jay-Z feature and then she got a Dollar Tree Jay-Z for the joint with Lil Mo





What record label thought it was a good look to have her put out TWO albums considering she had no history as an emcee?

Contigo (if I could go)

Take you home ft Kelis da Gawd

Ladies Night Remix

All my sh1t!!! So whatever

 

[Heafcliffe]

Yeah, that "Contigo" joint was pretty decent considering.....

Plus, Lil' Mo virtually murdered that shyt.

She was big time at Hot 97.

I don't know how much NYC radio people make, but I thought I read something about Power 105 tripling her salary...and she was making something like 200k at Hot 97.

 

[King Poetic]

Radio DJs are the worst

And she was one of them

 

[SheWantTheD]

If I could go was her?! And man she was lookin' good back in the day

I just wonder what made her think she could do a whole album. At least with Miss Jones, she was a singer first and then jumped on the radio thing

 

[Taadow]

This is the thread I hoped I WOULD NEVER HAVE TO SEE.



You forgot "Dem Thangs", bruh...the Neptunes Stimulus Package.



...aaand the muthafuccin' cut on The Tunnel tape, with the WORST BEAT EVER.

Word to my sig - SHE HAD TO DO IT.

All kinda DJs was making tapes...and on top of that we had that Latin Wave kinda blow up
after Pun, Nore, "La Vida Loca", "Mambo Number 5", and J-Lo poppin' off. It was a perfect imperfect storm. lol

 

[KravenMorehead™]

Suavemente, besaaameeee

 

[Big Blue]

Which is funny because she hates talking about it now. She acts like it never existed.

 

[Pinyapplesuckas]

she had 0 swag at all. it was pretty funny when she started rhyming out of nowhere. she mighta had a chance if J.Lo didnt start her music career around the same time.

 

[Ol’Otis]

She needs to release that unreleased 2pac interview

"If I Could Go" was solid.

That song randomly pops into my head for no reason at all this long after the fact.

I think I actually thought of it when there was a thread about rap carbon copies (Desiigner/Future) and I immediately thought of Sacario from that song.
