Mann - Cupid R.I. P.
Artist: Mann
Producer: J.R. Rotem & Fingazz
Album: Senior Year
Label: Mercury/IDJMG
People react to difficult breakups in a number of different ways—some feel confusion, others relief, others a desire for revenge. After a series of ill-fated romances, L.A. native Mann is feeling all three emotions. Relieved at being free of women who have done him wrong but confused as to why he always seems to fall for Ms. Wrong, the emcee’s decided to obliterate that pesky flying baby with an arsenal that drawn his puny arrows; in other words, you can expect tomorrow’s headlines to read “Cupid R.I.P.” Label boss J.R. Rotem teams up with veteran SoCal producer Fingaz to put together an electric-guitar beat that just screams “late-summer hit.” Seeing that the Booth staff chose Cupid R.I.P. as the best of three potential exclusives, it’s a good bet that the track will meet a warm reception from our regulars—here’s hoping the positive reader reviews will convince Mann’s label team to choose it as the lead single off the artist’s debut album, tentatively titled Senior Year.

Attention all program/music directors: we have a hit on our hands. You cannot deny the catchiness of this record. Everything works.

This just screams corny pop tune to me. This sounds like a pop punk song (at least on the hook) disguised as a hip-hop track. The gun shot sound effects and the scream of "click, clack, bang!" is waaaay too childish and corny for my tastes. I can see the appeal, though.

My last name is Mann :D
Doesn't mean I overally like it though, sure it's catchy en a good beat. Mann with the auto-tune tho? Aint doin' much for me sorry to say... Doesn't have that Kanye saprk, I agree with Z though, a potential hit, but to me just an average hip pop song. |

This is different! I think it could work! Has a rock edge, it has a good vibe to it over all, I'm not a big rock fan personally, but the mixture of his style (a mixture of old school LL and Rockin Weezy) and the rock beat make this worth listening to. F CUPID by the way,

Juanito_88 - you are usually spot on with your ratings but you are way off here. The Booth doesn't post 1-star rated records. Period!

WoW! This dude was all about "Ghetto Girl" on his last booth feature and now we hear his version of white-boy-punk-rock-rap ....
Its different... it might catch on to be a HIT ... I guess the rock and roll aspect of this track is innovative... It is a slickly produced, base heavy combination of punk rock and hip hop ... Lyrically, well, lets say Mann is aware of his listeners' age well enuff. BANGER!!! |

You know, it seems like a lot of rappers who try to write pop-punk songs end up accidentally channeling The Cars (a la "My Best Friend's Girl"). Which is great, and I wish they'd go further in that direction.
I felt the same way about "Hot Revolver," back when that came out. |
