Mika Means - Everybody Knows Me
Artist: Mika Means
Featuring: Lil Wayne
Producer: Meco The Great
Album: Untitled (TBD)
Label: Universal Motown
Back in October of ‘08, Universal Motown signee Mika Means introduced herself to the Booth with Spend Ya Money, a track that earned largely unfavorable reader reviews thanks in part to the ATL native’s left-of-center, androgynous vocal style. Fast-forward to ‘09 and Mika’s back on our frontpage with the hopefully-named Everybody Knows Me, a buzz cut which finds her ditching the voice box and… rocking a slight weed-smoker’s rasp? After a joint-sparking intro, Means gets down to business, partying the night away over a simmering synth-percussion beat by Meco The Great and offering fellow clubgoers the somewhat dubious advice, “If you ain’t makin’ it then fake it, no matter what the cost is.” Weezy F. takes over on the back end, capping the track off with a little game-spitting and a dash of off-kilter wordplay. So, does Mika Means’ distinctive brand of club-pop sound fresher the second time around (and a year later)? If you think so, keep it locked to the Booth for more info on her forthcoming studio album, which has yet to receive a title or a solid release date.

Not bad, nothing special about this at all. I don't even think this would get a decent club rotation, and the vocals weren't even that enjoyable. The chorus was lame and Wayne wasn't even that hot here. He must have gotten a big pay check to jump on this.

This is actually the best material I have heard from Mika. I know I know, that might not be saying much. But, this is spinable (and the Wayne guest verse doesn't hurt. I am going to give it a 2, but isn't not bad at all.

nah, nah. I gave her a 2nd chance now. I will pass on this artist next time...too generic, no special songwriting, no special voice and I hate already alone the fact that Lil Wayne is featured

This song is boring as sh*t. Vocals are weak and the production was nothing special. Wayne was aight but I will never listen to this song again. 1.5, but I'll round it up I guess.

It's actually ok!!
Hook needs work though and maybe change it to "you need to know me" or "nobody know me" cuz none of us know you!! Wayne was the best part of this.... |

sorry for the silly question but is it really her who's singing? I thought the pic was wrong...she sounds like a man! By the way I expected an awful song. I like it, instead! And to me it goes in rotation

That was not a women singing. It couldn’t be. LOL
The beat by Meco was alright, though he has done better in like "Buy U A Round", and lyrics were simple, but the chorus and her voice were annoying as hell. No replay value. @Z - "This is actually the best material I have heard from Mika." Hahahaha ... |

Well, Lloyd does sound like a girl too, and that doesn't stop him from singing, so go for it Mika! :p
But the vocals were a bit too raw and careless... if used right, her "different" voice could work in her favor. |
