I love how she changes up some of the words. Says “jigga” instead of “nigga”, and “yo” instead on “hoe”. It’s just little things but its noticeable and her voice is great.

The dude he great too, does the ill background singing, and is a beast on the keyboard. I love their vids

@Bena, Call me crazy but I didn’t know you needed “swag” to be able to sing. She genuinely has talent…she can sing her a** off. You must not be able to recognize talent when you see it.

@Jennifer, I Never Said She Couldnt Sing.. But Why Is She Singing A RAP Song! It’s Like Letting Lil Wayne Do A Country Song. It Just Doesnt Go. Like How The Hell Does This Girl “Sing” 6 Foot 7 Foot And Look At Me Now! This Kinda Stuff Just Kills The Actual Songs.
