Rapper Trina hopes to pick up where Lil' Kim, Da Brat, and a host of other potty-mouthed hardcore gals left off, rhyming about sex and her ability to go at it all night and her quest to find a man willing to do the same for her. By the end of her debut album, it all gets a bit monotonous. Only so many sleazy sex rhymes are tolerable before they become weary. Da Baddest Bitch is at its best when Trina steps out of the gutter and cops a Miami bass beat aimed more toward the dancefloor than the bedroom. The title track and "Off Glass," as well as guest performances from Trick Daddy, Twista, and J-Shin, keep the momentum relatively steady. ~ Michael Gallucci

Spin (6/00, pp.149,152) - 7 out of 10 - "...[This] hardass hopeful comes with tight rhymes slung perkily over the poppiest in South Florida deep-bass quakebeats....[She] is here to satisfy our jones to finally get inside the mind of one of those previously pimp-scripted Miami freaks..."
Entertainment Weekly (4/14/00, p.75) - "...Boldly positions [Trina] as the new queen of randy hip-hop tales in which sex is a contact sport. Spare Miami-bass beats provide the apt low end for her below-the-belt rhymes..." - Rating: A-
Vibe (5/00, p.172) - "...The relentless tales of prowess...are guaranteed to drop your jaw. Over consistently fast-paced beats and with a tough-as-nails attitude, Trina [delivers] sexually explicit tales riddled with braggadocio and vulgarity....so off-color she's amusing..."
The Source (4/00, pp.206,212) - 3 mics out of 5 - "...a thugged-out, bassed-up version of the Spice Girls' girl-power concept....powerful, rude and raw. And baby, we like it raw."
