I really had high expectations for Queen Pens second album "Conversations With Queen" to be a good album because her first album was pretty good. I think way too many people are making the album seem like it's horrible I just feel Queen is trying to be too hardcore where as on the first album she wasn't as hardcore. I feel she has changed for the worse and not the better and I hope she gets her mind right and tries again.But yes their are some good tracks on the album such as my favorites "Revelution" and "Ghetto Divorce" and "It's True" which was on her first album but this time Chico Debarge sings the hook. Decent songs are "Baby Daddy", "Warn U" and "For You". But I think this album is really wack so please if you want a hot female rappers cd check out Foxy Browns "Broken Silence" because it is blazing. Oh Yeah the first single "I Got Ya" is a very bad song because Queen Pen represents herself like a fake and phony female rappstress, so take my advice skip this album because it is not worth your time or money.

please, another wack attempt for another female rapper to enter the main stream. queen pen should have gave it up all the way back in 1997 when her wack r&b influenced album My Melody failed to sell gold. she is nothing, sure she tempted us with an amazing verse on "no diggity" and after that failed to do anything. and she is seriously confused. she talked about having sex with men and women on her debut album and now shes back saying shes str8? wuts going on?

pros- thru the album's weak presentation the pros are few and far between. the pros are the first single's ("i got cha") infectious beat, though that can't be said for the song or the lyrics. thru the many problems of this album, the light at the end of the tunnel can't even be reached by the amazing aray of guest artists (cam'ron, amil, dj clue- which is suprising) and their appearance on this record is career damaging.

cons- now she comes off dissing foxy brown & lil kim for saying they are to sexual and unclassy women, but then manages to say "the dope styles ya'll kicked was mine". hmmmm ok whatever. she has wack tracks "...ain't for free", "baby daddy", "warn u", "for you", "its true", "cold cold world" and practically every other track on the album. their are 3 pointless skits on the album and 13 pointless tracks. the girl ... str8 up.

i don't even think that queen pen should have came back. it was so pointless. shes a mother now so she should focus on keeping her child from growing up and spitting wacker rhymes then she did if thats even possible. i think that queen should step away from the music industry and leave it up to the truly skilled pros, because she is WACK. ery body knows that outside foxy brown, lil kim, amil, angie martinez & rah digga that NO other female rapper can spit and thats y they are the best. all the others are a waste of industry space and money.

This album is mainly held together by okay tracks. There aren't really any highlights, just different shades of lowlights. The problem is some of the ryhmes don't make sense, such as claiming that rappers that came out well before her stole her style, she spends way to much time trying to attack other female rappers that are out of her league (Foxy Brown and Lil' Kim), and brags about having a life style, and reputation that she hasn't built. Her flow is tight at times, but her ryhmes never seem to hit there marks. There are a couple tracks that may get your attention, but none that hold it.

She can rap, but the songs are boring. Maybe it is because I do not like her. She tried to diss my girl Foxy Brown on this album subliminally. I mean if she is so hardcore why diss someone subliminally. Queen Pen is very fake. She could rap. Instead of dissing Foxy and Kim, she need to be more concerned about her and her career because her album sales are low.

I wonder how self-realized Queen Pen was when she titled her second album "Conversation With Queen?" Once this disc hits your CD Player you'll know that no one's listen to this album for the beats. In fact, I'm more than positive the average hip-hip fan has heard hotter beats coming from their old plumbing. What salvages this album from being an shoddy coaster is her above average flow and the "conversations."

You may remember Queen Pen from her 16-bar guest spot on BlackStreets "No Diggity." Pen writes all her own material and you can tell because her rhymes are shallow and totally droning but admittedly better than most of today's Femcee's material. Unfortunately, Pen stretches her material so tight if you bent this disc over the seam would bust. By the end of the disc if you haven't figured out that Pen thinks she the realist female MC, been knocked up a couple time, is broke but somehow rich and thinks thugs want her like she has hundreds stuffed up in her pants, then you're deaf or not too swift. Pen's debut album "My Melody" proved that she can write a hot rhyme when she wants to but the only tracks that really work on "Conversations" are the dis joints. The first (and only) single "I Got Cha" is the least amateurish track as far as production is concerned. It's a blazingly confident - but kinda wack - dis track aimed directly at B.K.'s illest femcee's Foxy Brown and Lil' Kim. "Don't bring them around me/It's my time to shine/That style, y'all kicked, was mine/Take away your writers, and try to spit a rhyme." "QP Walks" had the potential of being a great track but the beats sound like someone hitting a vacuum up against a wall. Guest spots by Amil (whose flow is so off you won't even know it's her), Cam'ron and Miss Jones are totally wasted. Jones' hook on "Ghetto Divorce" is embarrassingly bad.

I can't recommend "Conversations" because of the poor production. No matter how hot your system may be, these beats sound bad no matter where and what you rock them on.

I do not understand why people hate on Queen Pen.In my opinion ,the reason as to why people hate on her is because she went from doing pop-rap with a bit of hardcore flavour to hardcore rap with only a touch of pop-rap flavour.Why can't a person change their style a bit without receiveing backlash?I firmly enjoyed this CD.For once I can listen to a rap cd without the monotonusly boring mid - paced beats with very sparse melodies on every track.The lyrics on some songs could be improved,but the music is on point with the exception of the bonus track "WHO'S THE " where the music is ridiculously wack and features equally wack rymes by the guest rapper. My favs on this CD are: WARN YOU, the highly explict,near hip-hop/dance-pop song "P**** AIN'T FOR FREE",the retro sounding "QP WALKS","GHETTO DIVORCE","I GOT CHA", "REVOLUTION","FOR YOU","BABY DADDY","IT'S TRUE",and "WHAT Y'ALL WANNA HEAR".Anyone who enjoys female rappers,give this CD a chance.LISTEN CLOSELY!You may just like what you hear. SIGNED 17 YEAR OLD MUSIC FAN.

I admit to liking her first LP even though it was average. It had its moments. This album sounds like it was put together in a day. The only decent songs are Revolution feat Stephen Marley, Cold Cold World and It's True feat Chico Debarge(wasnt this song was on her first album already with someone else on the chorus?). I Got Cha wasnt the best choice for first single but its better than Warn U, P***y Aint Free, QP Walks and I Reps. Ghetto Divorce, For You and the absolutely retarded Baby Daddy are painful to listen to. Amil joins in one of the wackest collabos of 2001 on What Ya'll Wanna Hear. The skits are the dumbest skits I've heard since Khia's album. They consists of different idiots asking Queen Pen the dumbest questions. The album closes with the forgettable Who's The feat Made Men. Bottom Line: Conversations With Queen puts the nail in the coffin for Queen Pen's rap career. The beats stunk, the lyrics were uninspired and repetitive and the guests didnt add much to the album. Its a pity. When she first came out, I thought she had a spark too but this album proved that it was nothing. RIP to Queen Pen's rap career.

WHAT'S YOUR 20 TEDDY RILEY? THIS IS GARBAGE LIKE AMIL,LIL KIM AND ANGIE MARTINEZ but that "BROKEN SILENCE IS A CLASSIC" by FOXY BROWN. PICK IT UP ON JULY 17th. ONE.

Queen Pen's new album "Conversations with queen" is another album just thrown out there trying to grab your money. Don't fall for her imitations. Her fisrt single "I Got Cha" was wack. The video is wack, her lyrics are wack and she's definitely wack. She comes back form 97 now in the 2000 claiming she's the badest in the streets (lol) and she owned and started all the styles before anybody else. This album is a waste. I agree with CHRIS FILIPEE A 100%. Queen P better get her mind straight. Think before buying this album, your money isn't worth this garbadge. You should spend it on real albums from real artists like Eve, Foxy Brown and Trina.

I don't know why everyone thinks this is a bad CD. This CD rocks! The lyrics are phat but the beats need work. The best song is "I got cha" by far. I recommend this CD for all true rap fans!
