HonkMagazine

Remy Ma is not one to shy away from what’s on her mind, and her recent performance was a testament to that. The Bronx rap legend joined forces with Trey Songz and Connie Diiamond for a high-energy performance of their “Ghetto & Ratchet (Remix)” on Thursday night. But it wasn’t only the high-energy delivery that was making mouths move in the crowd, it was one specific lyric that has the internet buzzing. Remy Ma says in the OG song, “Fk wantin’ ya na, I take him.” * But she added a little more bite to her latest performance, audaciously changing it up to, “If I want ya n**a, I’ll take him.” *

The energy instantly shifted in the room as soon as those words slipped from her lips, and fans were left wondering. Rumors and speculation about infidelity have surrounded it for months as the couple’s relationship came under public scrutiny. Although nothing has been officially confirmed, the tension has been impossible to miss. And now, with this lyric change, plenty of fans are convinced Remy Ma is doing just that. The reactions poured in on social media. Some fans were quick to read between the lines, interpreting the lyric as an obvious shot.

“Y’all know that was the line in that song right 👀,” wrote one user, while others directly questioned the intention of the performance. On the contrary, there are also some who couldn’t help but root her on, praising the confidence and fearlessness that Remy Ma displayed on stage. However, the biggest takeaway, perhaps, is that Remy Ma is still committed to her brash persona. Be it back through barb-laden lyrics or just the commanding way she runs a crowd, she knows how to seize a moment. Remy Ma ain’t losing her status as one of hip-hop’s wildest mouths.

Dian Sheng

Dian Sheng releases his long-awaited first English-language album, “Sid,” a genre-defying collection of songs that includes pop, rock, electronic, and jazz. “Sid” is a deep, meditative exploration of identity, relationships, and self-growth, spanning 29 minutes and 12 seconds across eight tracks. This album is a personal exploration of the complex emotions of mankind and the vitality and jubilation of life.

From the opening track, “Right Now,” Dian Sheng establishes a sense of urgency and reflection. The upbeat song “I Come From Far” examines the connection between the self and one’s environment. It has joyful beats and layers that make you think and feel like part of the narrative.

The jazz ballad “Undecided Love” delves into the complexities of modern romance, featuring tender vocals and instrumentation that showcase Sheng’s delicate touch as a songwriter. “It Will Be Alright” is an empowering anthem about overcoming life’s biggest obstacles, combining electronic beats with a rock influence.

“Seventeen” is bursting with youthful energy, and its production captures the restlessness and emotionality of adolescent life. Two introspective songs with similar atmospheres, “The Way Before” and “This Life,” match chilling melodies with moving lyrics that touch on bygone relationships, self-awareness, and the quest for meaning we all experience.

Feel the vibe with Sporty-O’s new EP “The P.L.U.R. Project,” a blend of emotions and sound

Sporty-O

“The P.L.U.R. Project” begins like a rush of light across a crowded dance floor as jubilant, purposeful, and very human. This seven-song, 29-minute journey from the EDM pioneer Sporty-O is a cultural reset built around peace, love, unity, and respect.

Sporty-O establishes the emotional timbre for the entire project from the first track of its lead single, “Spirit Higher.” The song is anthemic, its purposes well outlined despite a high-gloss production. It’s a centerpiece that establishes the mood of an intensive exploration of sound and self-awareness.

“The P.L.U.R. Project” is just as much about managing your feelings as it is about moving. Sporty-O creates each record with intention, writing things that make people think on the dance floor. Another high-energy song is “Happy Together,” with Lorme and Chris Willis, pulsing warmth and togetherness. “SOLD!” has a clean, feel-good sound that embodies the community spirit of EDM culture.

Sporty-O embraces a multi-genre EDM palette on the EP, fusing forward-thinking sounds with uptempo beats. Tracks like “Revolution” with Specimen A and “Geek’d Up” with Baby Sweet provide lots of energy and edge. “Piece Of My Mind” is more introspective, while “Cheveyo” features a diverse array of collaborators and culminates in a rich, layered sound, all while maintaining a global welcoming spirit.

What makes this project unique is that it serves both and reminds people of the origins of dance culture. Sporty-O aims to help people rediscover the heartbeat of the community. “The P.L.U.R. Project” is an EDM experience that reaches beyond the speakers, colorful and thoughtful about meaning in music-based culture.
