Tina Presents - Let's Ride (Album Sampler) (2003) (Mixed by Don Won)

Here is the second Album by Tina, 6 years later, still try to do her thing round the way. still on Independent Record deal, 'Lynch By Lynch Records' (not sure if she was still on 'J-Town Records' when she came out with this second album).

anyway, for my personal comment, i would say her second album is less catchy than her first one which was dropped 6 years before her second one, we can definitely hear the evolution btw boths albums, and the productions are differents & less with that hip hop influences that the 90's era use to be. there are some great jams as 'I'll Light The Candles' or 'Ladies' Night' which proves that 'Tina' still got it, but the songs are the same and we feel like it's been set on repeat, well sang, but the melody of the instrumental not really catchy, same for the words of the chorus. but that doesn't means it's not good at all, it's still great quality for an independent artist !
