Nyne West ft. Mario - Overdrive

Nyne West - Overdrive

Featuring: Mario

Producer: Kovas [for Ghetto Beat]

Album: Beauty in a Beast

Label: A-List Music Group

Whatever your feelings on certain prominent female hip-hop artists whose names start with “Nicki” and end with “Minaj,” (I’m a fan, myself), it’s getting harder and harder to ignore the wave of talented femcees who have been hitting the scene of late. Introducing herself to the Booth with new single Overdrive, Massachusetts’ Nyne West is yet another hip-hop chick not afraid to jump in the driver’s seat and dominate a track. Over the synthy, pop-appealing boardwork of Ghetto Beat rapper/producer (and exclusive freestyle series alumnus) Kovas, the artist explains just how much she enjoys a good, uh, ride with a guy who knows how to treat her right. Appropriately enough, Nyne delegates hook duties to a prominent prominent R&B fella; Mario rounds out this freaky cut with a characteristically smooth chorus, as well as dropping a few flowed bars for good measure. Like what you’re hearing? Keep it locked for all the latest on West’s Beauty and a Beast LP, which has yet to receive a solid drop date.

dillon_68 Tastemaker Total Ratings: 1337	Rating: dillon_68's Top Rated Songs Mario was tight as hell, but it's very apparently from the first verse that she is a Nicki Minaj wannabe. Her flow and style is almost identical to Nicki. That's not what's up.

Nathan S. DJ Booth Crew Total Ratings: 2476	Rating: Nathan S.'s Top Rated Songs It's a sad truth that all female emcees are going to get compared to Nicki - but I have to agree with dillon - while her flows a little more Trina-esque than Nicki-esque, it's close enough to make comparisons inevitable, and not for the best. Just couldn't connect with this one. Maybe if I heard another track where she brought a little more energy?
