1.0 out of 5 stars Inventor is to blame for the death of pop!, June 6, 2002

The Remix...Oh, the fabled remix.

What true talent must it take to steal a little from someone and little from someone else...and walk (strut) with pride for giving the old-schooler's their "props". If P-Diddy wants to take credit for the lack of originality in music the last few years, let him! Pop music is already filled (and has been filled) with dancers and bums yelling, "remix" and stinking up the airwaves. Maybe it's the [people] out there starving for anything radio stations play, but it's who's feeding them which is truly to blame.

3.0 out of 5 stars Slips Up....., May 20, 2002

This review is from: P Diddy & Bad Boy Records Present: We Invented the Remix (Audio CD)

Sean "P. Diddy" Combs is the master of the remix true, but he definetly didn't invent it. This album is missing a great deal of the infamous remixes that Diddy has recorded over the years, including a number one hit (Mariah Carey's "Honey" remix), current radio hits ("Lights Camera Action"), classics ("Only You") and others that he recorded with artists like MC Lyte, Gina Thompson, Total, Dream and so forth, that put them on the map. Though some of these are old school songs, It would be great to hear them again, and they wouldn't be out of place on an album with some old school Biggie.

The album's best track is easily "Special Delivery", where G-Dep, Ghostface Killah, Keith Murray & Craig Mack invent themselves a hip hop classic, because they absolutley KILL this track. P. Diddy's "I Need a Girl Part 2" is hot as all hell, and is easily better then the original radio hit. Faith Evans "You Gets No Love" is fantastic and so is "Thats Crazy", Black Rob's answer to "Whoa".

The album may have these smashes, but the rest of the album lacks. The highly over played "I Need A Girl Part 1" is on here (a track I never liked), and the same can be said for the highly out of place "Unfoolish" by Ashanti. The 112 remixes on the album are conjoined, which is terrible because "Dance With Me" is one of the best remixes of all time and its only Sigel's verse and then cuts immediatley into "Peaches and Cream". Cheri Dennis' track "So Complete" doesn't change at all except a verse from Diddy, "No More Drama" is a discrace to the tear jerking original & "Bad Boy For Life" is just plain stupid.

This album is missing the remix of "Lets Get It" with the new Bad Boy rappers, anything by Total, Ma$e, Dream, and Shyne, yet includes remixes by non-Bad Boy artists like Ashanti & Mary J. Blige. I was expecting a little bit more out of this album, but hopefully the second edition will be better. Diddy is one [heck] of a remix master, but this album does little to nothing to reflect that.

1.0 out of 5 stars P Did dy. Honestly. What the **** is wrong with this guy and the radio pop rap of today?, March 9, 2006

There used to be a time when rap was not synonymous with the likes of Hillary Duff. No longer is that true, if you call this rap. Puff wasn't that good to begin with, and I never owned any of his cds but I knew of him...anyway, by the time I heard he changed his name to PDiddy, I about laughed until I pissed myself.
