Mixtape Review: MaryLiz “The Princess is Here”
I’ve been hearing about Ms. MaryLiz for quite some time now and was anticipating her mixtape, (especially since DJ Frosty was hosting it). I was finally able to listen to her mixtape on Wednesday (Nov.4). From the start, I was really happy for her b/c I can only imagine she was excited to record, and finally release this project. Throughout listening, my opinion is, it was an average mixtape. I think she needs some more work with her pitch and rhythm. There were times (more than so than not) where she wasn’t on beat so-to-speak. I wouldn’t have advised her to do “Run this Town” as a remix. It’s very hard for new artist to sing “familiar” tracks b/c you’ll always be compared to the original artist. Rihanna is an amazingly talented artist, and to remake one of her songs would be quite difficult. I don’t think Mary Liz is awful, however I do believe she needs to continue at her craft and perfect her imperfections. I do not rap nor do I sing, however as a consumer of Rap and R&B music this is just my opinion of what I heard. I wish her much luck, success, and fortune. I hope this isn’t taken as a “diss” because it is not. We all are up under the microscope at different times in our lives. In order to help one another, we must be honest with one another. Again Mary Liz I congratulate you and I wish you the best.
