Remy Ma Opens Up About Her Miscarriage

... and I feel like something needs to be said. Like how can I use my health insurance to take life, but I can’t use it to get life? How? It’s just like the weirdest shit. You wanting to say something about miscarriages reminds me of the song “What’s Going On” from your first solo album, where you rap through your conflicting feelings about having an abortion. That came out in 2006, which seems crazy to me now. No one talked about that stuff in public then, especially not in rap. You know, when I did that record — it was something that I was really going through. It’s the same reason why I opened up about the ectopic pregnancy: People don’t talk about these subjects. You wouldn’t be in a group of women, like yeah, I had that abortion over the weekend. It’s something you do privately. You slide past the protesters outside and you do whatever you do and then you go home and you’re in pain and ...

Have you seen any in theaters recently, or watched at home. You guys must have eyes on me! I went to the movies last night. I'm a moviehead and my movie selection is related to my book selection.

Remy Ma Pushes For Private Prison Reform

While she was surrounded by a strong support system who visited her almost every day, she noted that many of the women around her didn’t receive the same support. “The backbones of these families are women because a lot of the men are either gone or in prison for that matter, so seeing these women thrown away like trash just bothered me.”.

We Have To End The Private Prison System

... in there writing something crazy." And I'm just like, what? First of all, you don't have all this free time. Second of all, you feel horrible. It is the worst mind-state to ever be in. There's no creativity in there. You're drained. If you could go back, knowing what you know now, and tell '06 Remy anything, what would you tell her now. You know what. I would just tell her treat your music and your career like your job. I'd treat it like a job. Then it was just like fun. And I tell this to any artist that I meet that hasn't really been through anything like that. I tell them, "This is your job." If you worked at a office — a blue collar job — would you bring all of your friends and your family members to hang out in the break room? Would they come to your office parties? No. Only the people that work there go. That's what I would do. I would definitely tell her to take this serious. This is not for everybody. You can't try to give your ...

Remy Ma said she doesn't understand how a Bobby Shmurda affiliate ended up with a 117-year prison sentence. Last month, a  Bobby Shmurda affiliate got slapped with a 117-year prison sentence after refusing a plea deal which would have shortened his sentence to 15 years.

"If I commit a crime that warrants 15 years and you're willing to give me 15 years, that's it. There's no way after trial I should end up with 117 years. And I'm very passionate about it. Not just because I lived it but because I've seen it.". After spending seven years behind bars, Remy Ma has rebounded with great success. Her two-time Grammy nominated collaboration with Fat Joe  "All The Way Up" translated into an acclaimed full studio album.  She confided that the prison system has had a negative ...
