She’s been around like 10 years bruh. If she don’t ain’t a star by now she never will be. Again I love her man. She’s one of my favorite artists. People be having millions of followers on Instagram and barely sell 100,000 records. What more can she do to get live out here? I mean people were literally on her post saying they don’t like the new song. She be threatening to leave social media and all that. We are talking about an era that made Sexyy Red a star… people getting hit songs off TikTok and get mad when people only know the hook to that one song lol. It’s crazy out here man. She should already be a star by now.. she already put out her classic that I think she will never top(Shea Butter Baby)

Her music is whatever

Like @Rhapscallion Démone said they spent too much time marketing her as baby badu
I feel like she'd be better off trying to pursue acting for now. She has that Quinta Brunson, Issa Rae, Donald Glover type sense of humor. Musically she should follow the footsteps of her good friend Durand Bernar. He's been having a really great year

I would be interested if she collaborated with somebody like Questlove on her next project. I can’t really see myself checking out anything less than that. I’m just not a fan of the way her songs are written and songs composed.

I feel like she’d be more enjoyable over classically composed Jazz, Blue, or R&b records. No synthetic anything, no stupid ass trap&b beats, just real session musicians, and collaborative writing with depth.

You're absolutely right, she would eat and leave no crumbs if they gave her some old school Jazz, Blues or R&b compositions. Dreamvilles budget for her probably doesn't cover session musicians though. They got this girl touring with drill rappers and getting water bottles thrown at her while on stage. She's out of her element
