Mae Day “Somethin’s Gotta Give” reviewed

Tamara Warren of the Detroit Free Press reviews Mae Day’s Somethin’s Gotta Give - the Sick Notes artist’s debut album.

Her flow is infectious on bouncy cuts like “Like Hey,” which features the usual lyrical boasts: “It’s like ‘Cheers,’/ Everybody knows her name,” she taunts on the track that also features Tone Tone. Her vocals are breathy, and at times, she almost sings her hooks, a concept that works well on “Action,” where she is backed by the soulful voice of L’Renee. A samba beat sets off “B.A.B. Why?,” which has dance floor written all over it.

Mae Day has attitude, but her delivery is refreshing and light — a strong new voice from the Detroit hip-hop scene.
