“I like how he do what he do, but I’m too P, I’m just keepin’ it cool (Keepin’ it cool).” Noted, Flo Milli (Tamia Carter).  The rapper brings the cool vibes in her single, “Throw That Money.” Flo and producer Lil Ronnie (Ronnie Jackson) wrote the brief, two-minute song.

Despite its brevity, “Throw That Money” has its fair share of pros. I adore the smooth production.  Those warm pads and synths are NICE! Even with warm accompaniment, the drum programming bangs. Flo Milli matches the smoothness with her pitched, melodic rap vocals.  Even with the refined production, Flo still gets nasty and naughty with the shee-it! “He say this body a meal, got me a nigga don’t play with his food (Huh),” she raps in the verse, and adds, “I put this pussy all on his veneers / Know how to ride and I ain’t off a pill.” Ooh-wee! The chorus is the crème de la crème:

“Love how you throwin’ that money on me, I feel like a dancer (Yeah)

Throw me that money (Throw me that money)

I make him throw me that money (Ah).”

My, my, MYYY! Ultimately, “Throw That Money” is a vibe.  It’s enjoyable. Flo Milli has her fair share of great moments.  The rub? It’s bite-sized – a bit skinny on substance.  Although I would’ve enjoyed more song, Flo does enough to catch my ear.
