Artist: Remy Ma

Representing: The Bronx

Mixtape And DVD: Shesus Khrist

411: The Queen of NY has even more controversy on her hands this week. Remy Ma, who is awaiting trial on attempted-murder charges, just released the mixtape/DVD Shesus Khrist. The cover depicts Rem hanging from a cross topless with a loincloth covering her private parts. Although she's been doing shows and appearing at parties since her arrest a few weeks ago, the former Terror Squad member has been on interview silence, so she can't explain. But we did speak to DJ Superstar Jay, who put the project together with Rem. He defended her choice of title and artwork and also explained a couple of the tracks. As for her problems with the law, Jay said, "A lot of people be like, 'Is this a publicity stunt?' Attempted murder ain't no publicity stunt. We did this mixtape before she got in trouble."

Joints To Check For:

* "Shesus Khrist." "The tape was originally supposed to be called The Last B---h Standing," Jay explained. "She's talking about how everything is going on in the industry and how females get treated in the industry. Then in one of her songs, she said, 'This is the BX savior, Shesus Khrist.' I asked, 'Where did you get that from?' She said she's the female savior and she was talking about all the things she was going through, like the Terror Squad and Fat Joe not helping her out on her album. Now she's on no label. Everybody is getting it twisted and thinks she's going with the propaganda of Christ. She's talking abut how females are getting crucified in the industry. She's a prime example. Her album was a classic — she spits crazy hard — but it didn't do the numbers it's supposed to do. She feels that people done stabbed her, jabbed her, not supported her.

"The video is graphic," he added. "She even got scared when she seen herself on the cross. We did it on a beach location. The police came and was like, 'I heard a lady is on a cross.' We had to shoot it real quick. The song was crazy. The beat arrangement. ... That was actually the last song we did for the mixtape. She got in the car and wrote the rhyme in 15 minutes and spit it right in front of me. 'If Jay is Jay-Hova and Nas is God's Son ... ' "

* "We Takin' Over" (featuring Lazy K, Jacki-O, Lil' Mo and Trina). "Pretty much all the females in the industry are going through the same thing," Jay said. "Before — in like '96, '97, 2000 — females were more respected. You had Lil' Kim, Foxy, Eve. They were selling the same amount of records as the males. Now you got the new females coming up, even Lil' Mo didn't get the respect she deserved. I think that whole lineup is talented, but Jacki-O doesn't get her due. Even Lazy K doesn't get her due ... I think they just came together and really said, 'We takin' over.' They did the female version of DJ Khaled's song."

* "Remy Time." "That was a beat from a track Jim Jones used called 'Reppin Time,' " Jay said. "Remy writes off of passion. As soon as she feels something, she writes it. When I listen to the mixtape, she's spittin' harder than the guys that are out."

I ain't feeling no one putting themselves on a cross. That's mad disrespectful, another bad move for Remy. No matter how much I like her, I can't co-sign that.
