Can't believe she's got a grammy and she's 19 and a new artist. Amazing!! Her family must be so proud. She seems like such a decent person. Just shows age aint nothing.
I fear that a lot of the appeal of these sessions recording lies in the directionality and super wide stereo soundstage.. Usually if you were to press it on vinyl the lower end should be mastered to be almost mono to reduce the risk of needle skipping. I don't know how prominent this would turn out but the music that sounds really good on vinyl usually is mastered with that in mind as well. They could release HQ versions in digital streaming services but these videos actually don't lack much. If it's the pretty physical object youre after hmu in private, i'll make a **cough** bootleg for ya
Often, the Tiny Desk performance is exceptional - frequently even better than the heavily produced album versions. I too would buy the Tiny Desk versions of MOST artists.
@@kerrie790 i dont disagree with you lol Koffee fully deserves her success but we cannot ignore the fact that the way reggae is set is up its really hard for females to break through. However as a result of koffees young following, her unique look, her unique sound and the blessing of the male reggae artists she was able to break through
She’s not shy. She’s an Ardenne Graduate....well trained for public speaking. Jamaican education system makes sure the children are ready for global experiences.
0:00 Raggamuffin 5:05 Rapture 8:06 Toast 11:36 W Just leaving this around as I tend to come back to this video a lot, these versions of these tracks just get me every time
Self-made artist! Rejected by music school, posted her tribute to Usain Bolt and BOLTED into fame! First female to win a grammy in the reggae genre! Amazing young talent!
Just wanted to make a short notice that she thanked everyone a total of 24 times, if I counted correctly (I didn't even include the amount of thanks she expressed in her songs) and to be clear I want to give her a bless you in the same amount back...and put a million bless yous on top of that. We don't deserve her!
As a fellow Jamaican I’m so honored to see the youth them doing amazing tings. I’ve been watching Koffee since “Burning” and was like dis girl a go buss soon she bad man, she remind me of when Chronixx started out! So proud of we culture. Thank you NPR tiny desk concert for such a one of kind platform. 🔥🔥🔥🔥. 🇯🇲
So true, she and her team are just so humble.. Its refreshing... I'm loving watching her grow.. I would love to see a collaboration with Miss Koffee, Anita Jaxson & Poptain... That would just be electric.. 🔥🔥💯💯 Loving your true and positive vibes... Anything you talented underestimated natural dedicated artist produce UK, and the world are loving it. 😍😍🇿🇼🙏🏼💕👌🏼.. Keep doing what your doing. Make those dreams real.. And reach higher👆🏼than the stars ✨✨👏🏼👏🏼👍🏼💕💕💯🔥🇿🇼
I’ve been listing since early 2018 and let me tell you, her music specially “TOAST” saved my life. It ceased my depression- she’s a blessing. Love her energy ❤️ 🇲🇽🙌🏼💐
The bright obsess side of the idea become so attached to plan view of growth towards cable history & styles of solid sounds that glide with epic events and destined interlude that are Intel cermon interesting.
The band was soooo tight, an immaculate performance by the musicians & backing vocals. A moment of higher spirit and soul from Koffee. Well deserved first female to win a Grammy for Best Reggae Album!
You going places koffee. Thanks for good music and the entire band is great. I'm proud to be a Jamaican. You're such a humble soul. Blessings to you and family.
I think it strikes a lot of people as strange to call Patwa (Patois) a language. Because it seems like a slang dialect. But it's been around for hundreds of years, and it has its own rules. I would say that even though it's mostly based on English, it's at least as different from standard English as Spanish is from Portuguese. And those two are called separate languages.
Can't believe as young as she is so wise beyond her age, truly an organic artis so young black & gifted she is, this small beautiful island call Jamaica has produce some of the most incredible singers song writers creative musicians, big_up_to JAMROCK!!!🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲 thank you Mama jamica !!!
Her Clarity, Her Style, Her Voice, Her Lyrics, Her Flow, Her Sound, Her Breath Control, Her Background Vocalist, Her Musicians....EVERYTHING WAS AWESOME🤧🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️I LOVE THIS YO🇯🇲
Wow - this is real music, and so rich in culture - Wicked.... NPR is the new MTV, the only music channel worth watching..../listening. Awesome, engaging, captivating... I might need a translator to understand the lingo, but that's ok, just shows how credible the music must be, that on the rhythm and melody alone, the music stands with integrity.... I absolutely enjoyed this. Might be the most rewarding NPR video I ever watched and this was my 1st introduction to these well integrated musicians. Refreshingly satisfying.
if you can read and understand english you can read and understand the lyrics even if you're not able to hear and understand. patois is an english dialect. don't miss out on the powerful lyrics, my dude.
Koffee can sing the alphabet and I'll support it 🔥🙌🏽🔥🙌🏽🔥. She never disappoints. I wish I could've been there. Shout out to the band and the other singers as well 🙏🏽 Thank you NPR 🙏🏽
She is handling fame so well, being truly grateful for everyone who has helped her get to where she is and giving credit where its due. Not to mention she just has some raw talent.
@@Nottotv I said she CARRIES herself like a man.. which anybody with eyes and a working brain can see. She in not femenine, she likes standing next to girls as if they is her woman and she styles herself in male attire. Whats confusing to you?
I'm standing here, at the other side of the computer screen, and I'm clapping my hands with the audience. You are blessed, Koffee. Thank you for your message, thank you for all you do for the humanity.
I saw her live in Philly when she opened for Daniel Caesar. She just brought this amazing energy to the place and her voice sounded just as perfect when she was dancing
I watch this almost every morning before school. Or I just put "Toast" on repeat. Otherwise I feel like a crazy person. Koffee's music has invited so much love and gratitude into my life.
I’ve seen this guitarist with her from the stuff online to live at Glastonbury and he’s been amazing every time. I also have to big up the backing vocals as they truly have brought something new to the vibe that I’ve not seen before. The whole vibe is so infectiously blessed x BIG UP KOFFEE EVERYTIME!!
@@John-wg7qx ouch...kinda harsh man, they add to the performance too, like a Christmas tree, if without the lights/decorations, it would be pretty boring tree.
Freek Eigenraam Forgot she had braces and for a split second was like: Wow Koffee, you changed! Got some fame and got some grills to be more hype 😳🥺. Then remembered she’s just wearing her braces and felt bad for doubting our humble Queen.
The sheer flavour this performance displays is for the ages. Every musician happy to contribute their part, zero ego, all teamwork starting from the singer.... Great work!
The energy flowing through the whole band is insane. I can’t stop coming back to this video. Incredible mixing from the NPR sound engineer, the crowd having a genuinely good time, and of course Koffee’s immaculate vibes. Looking forward to seeing her this August in London.
Maybe it's because they (keyboardist, drummer, and bassist) grew up together in Ghana and are actually like brothers who have played together for years.
D. Yes, but she sounds like she’s getting conceited. There’s no need to brag or talk or mention certain things. Otherwise, she sounded very nice and never miss a beat or fumble. She’s very talented or gifted. As for her style of dressing, that’s another story.
@@eahayes100 no. the rule is that when talking about God in the context of religion i.e Christianity or Islam the first letter is capitalised because it's a proper noun whereas when speaking about a deity outside of your religion it's "god".
hate to ruin the mood, but i'm pretty sure she sold her soul to the devil. It's cause she's does illuminati signs, especially with covering one eye. She's still a good artist tho.
This is the most beautiful, spectacular, and captivating Tiny Desk ever! Koffee came out of nowhere and I knew I loved what I heard, but watching this brought that to a whole new level. The joy on the faces of her bandmates, her humble acknowledgement of each and every one of them(and lyrics about NPR), lyrical content, and just the overall performance. I don't even know what to say... Took my breathe away 💕💕💕
It used to be that way, but it was cheaper to use electronics... bands phased out, and artists that once were known for also being engineers, producers, etc. became the norm.... I wanna hear live music ALL THE TIME
this proves that we need to invest into music again, instead of downloading and listening evrything for free.. how should they effort to pay a band record and all this time that goes into it?
She's like Chronixx little sister who watched her big brother for a long time and really wanted to be like him. And she practiced and practiced and he helped her a bit and finally something absolutely unique happened and paid it all off. She's grown even bigger. Best npr, best female voice and future for the entire genre! Big Up Koffee!
Kornel Kaczmarek yesss! Chronixx is my favorite reggae singer and then when I saw that he had a part to play in her being where she is now I’m like this makes so much sense!
@Star I think Chronixx was/is a big inspiration to Koffee but we all know she just greatness that's all. We know she dope but the truth is networking can get you far in addition to being musicaly gifted. 😄
She is one of the most humble humans I have ever seen. I don't see fame getting to this girls head at all. More people need to take note of how she acts because this is true righteousness.
I get really emotional listening to Koffee's Tiny Desk concert and I can't nail down why. There's a purity and a joy in this group that is just so honest.
She writes on guitar , amazing lyrics.. but also has great voice and is one of best emcee’s I’ve heard in a while. She’s spot on. I love her music and she is a Lady how she conducts herself. A positive female role model .💚💛❤️🇯🇲
Top 3 Tiny desk EASILY!!! Koffee sounds as close to the actual songs as can be. Her breathing techniques are phenomenally impressive. And those background vocals are a perfect marriage. On repeat!

I really appreciate how she keeps expressing how thankful she is for everything she’s got.
Sweet girl❤
Gratitude is a must !
Me too. Being great and humble is a beautiful thing.
Rastafarian 101
her positivity is contagious
Everyone's skin in this video looks like BUTTER, sheeeeeeshhh
Yep every one of them...nice and rich!
RIGHT?!!
I'm saying can we get a skin care drop for the after NPR vid lol
Whoo! Can't stop staring at the dark skinned background vocalist.
Melanin popping
i just can’t believe she’s 19 years old, so talented
Can't believe she's got a grammy and she's 19 and a new artist. Amazing!! Her family must be so proud. She seems like such a decent person. Just shows age aint nothing.
Wait what!
Imagine that she's amazing
She won a grammy when she was 18, the youngest artist to win the award.
I was just telling my man she can't be older than 19 Amazing Talent
Oxygen
Koffee: What’s that ?
Musical coffee with a twist!!!!
Thanks, sound engineer!
@@sethewing15 In fact... a excellent engineer and job!
ikr
😂😂I had to breathe for her
2024 anybody 🔥
We need to put out an APB on her, she hasn't posted on Instagram for 2yrs
The backing vocals are tight. Loved this fresh sound. Lotsa talent here.
for real, for real!!
yeeesssss
Dont it?????? and them from yaard tu
📀 + 💝
For real
The happiest band that’s ever been on Tiny Desk.
You didn't watched Mac Miller tiny desk for sure.
Or the free nationals, that smile
Idles were really happy too
I was going to say Tank and the bangas.
I think it's because she is appreciating everyone in the band
All of NPR tiny desk is a hidden gem
Yeah I'm sure no one has ever heard of Mac Miller or Tyler the Creator lol
Reinier Sandtke mainstream artists are only a fraction of their content.
@@birdi3beez yeah I understand that, but the guy said: *ALL* of NPR tiny desk is a hidden gem. That's why I made the joke.
Reinier Sandtke fair enough
not macklemore xD
How does she manage such confidence at 21?
Also, her breathe control is amazing.
At 19 here too! She’s incredible
DREADLOCKS POWER!
JAH bless
Gen Z
Just being who she was born to be 🖤
I love how the band is smiling at each other and genuinely feeling the music. They’re truly feeling it. Love it.
OH YES !!!!!!!!!!
Nice teeth/smile with black skin 😍😍😍
Lorenzo Sanchez Love that!
I've written a few songs and I'll tell you there's nothing like doing reggae songs. The bass lines alone gon make you smile
That’s what happens when the music grooves and everyone locked in
0:00 "Raggamuffin"
3:56 "Rapture"
8:03 "Toast"
11:37 "W"
and of course 6:58 Big up to the band ! ^^
Thank you 🥰
InsomaniaKal you’re a Legend🙏🏾
InsomaniaKal thank you
InsomaniaKal thx
Biiiiiiiiih those background singers didn't come to play.
Right?
I just thought to myself those BGV are on point they not missing a beat!!!!
Jamaican girls don't play. They get it done
Moarashad Gibson Period!! ❤️❤️🙌🏾🙌🏾
For true.👍👍
Jeez... so refreshing to see so many musicians so unselfishly in love with the music...the vibe...the energy!!!
Hi dear I want you for collaboration
Wish NPR would release these on vinyl. Could even pair artists, one on side A and one och side B. Chronixx & Koffee.. I'd buy it any day of the week.
Yes
I fear that a lot of the appeal of these sessions recording lies in the directionality and super wide stereo soundstage.. Usually if you were to press it on vinyl the lower end should be mastered to be almost mono to reduce the risk of needle skipping. I don't know how prominent this would turn out but the music that sounds really good on vinyl usually is mastered with that in mind as well. They could release HQ versions in digital streaming services but these videos actually don't lack much.

Bloody vinyl hipster
Often, the Tiny Desk performance is exceptional - frequently even better than the heavily produced album versions. I too would buy the Tiny Desk versions of MOST artists.
I had the same thought, yo. This would sound great on the stereo
The first female reggae artist to ever WIN THE GRAMMY FOR BEST REGGAE ALBUM.
BLACKBONO LALA and also the youngest individual to win the Grammy in that category 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
@@juggernautmjae3970 yes u right
how many female reggae artists can you name tho?
@@daniaa1602 That's the point no? Reggae is largely a men's club so to see a young woman in the genre and win awards for it is great.
@@kerrie790 i dont disagree with you lol Koffee fully deserves her success but we cannot ignore the fact that the way reggae is set is up its really hard for females to break through.

I love Koffee so much. She seems so shy and humble. Shout out to the singers and band. Every member is beautiful.
That bass man had such a nice smile.... in case you noticed!
ItsMissChas5 I did lol
She’s not shy. She’s an Ardenne Graduate....well trained for public speaking. Jamaican education system makes sure the children are ready for global experiences.
Michelle Campbell that’s awesome !

Rapture should be 4:05
❤tysm
This gyal is a bundle of talent. 'Rapture' never sounded better.
Godwin Chiazor girl stop it
Chanelle Nikkita ???
I'm so confused 🤷🏾
Everything sounds better live with a bad band behind it! 😎
Koffee's breath control is unmatched. Wheww!
I thoroughly enjoyed this
Makes it look like nothing
AMAZING!! She is such a Gift!!👏🏾👏🏾💜💜
Honestly. I keep looking to see when she breathes and I don't know how she does it.
I noticed that as well. I was looking for when she took breaths
Her breath control is insane!! The background vocalists! You ladies are amazing!
Background women; your absolutely STUNNING! Such beauty, energy and filled with the holy spirit!
Self-made artist! Rejected by music school, posted her tribute to Usain Bolt and BOLTED into fame! First female to win a grammy in the reggae genre! Amazing young talent!
She’s so polite and sweet and grateful to the crowd and her band. Makes her that much authentic and flyyyyyyy :)
Much love 💗
She’s like a musical breath of fresh air.
A caribbean breeze

I agree totally except idk bout you but I totally and graciously deserve her artistry and the jewels she drop👑🔥
Well said
Jah bless
Exactly what I loved about her. Even if I didn't love the music (I DO.) I would want to support her career. What a beautiful soul.
Koffee just exudes humility and pure talent, and the band was 🔥. Respect 🫡.
Koffee has a really dope cadence and ad-lib "Uh huh"
sounds exactly like her "mentor" chronixx uh huh
Wicked solid ad-libs
😍😍😍
As a fellow Jamaican I’m so honored to see the youth them doing amazing tings.

Jamaica gives so much to the world
The way Jamaicans speak English is a joy.
I have hear almost everyone said try that about koffee that her vibe is very like chronic. I say really? I have to listen to him....THEY ARE RIGHT
Proud like a mi cousin!
She is just natural, she not cursing anyone or dissing anyone
essence and purity...
Exactly she pure to this!

The flow on "Toast" is everything I love about music. Such a timeless track.
Fully convinced that the background singers are robots. THEY DONT MESS UPPPP

The Caribbean spirit is strong.

I'm proud to see my brothers from Ghana🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭 making it big out.
The Composers
Wow good call I didn’t even recognize that was the composers
Those backing vocals are tight. The whole band in fact, one of the best I've seen at Tiny Desk. Congrats
It’s the breathwork for me. She has such control over her breath it’s crazy.
She's a stoaner
She's willddd🔥
This point right here..... Pure musician and lyricist.
I love how pure her voice is
The bright obsess side of the idea become so attached to plan view of growth towards cable history & styles of solid sounds that glide with epic events and destined interlude that are Intel cermon interesting.
Koffee has a gifting that is beyond her peers. People with this kind of gift are 1 in a generation. Very rare and precious!
Saw her last night opening a Harry Styles' concert at Mexico!! KILLING IT KOFFEEEEEEEEEE!!!
Wow!!! Sounds like an amazing time!
The band was soooo tight, an immaculate performance by the musicians & backing vocals. A moment of higher spirit and soul from Koffee. Well deserved first female to win a Grammy for Best Reggae Album!
You going places koffee. Thanks for good music and the entire band is great. I'm proud to be a Jamaican. You're such a humble soul. Blessings to you and family.

Patois
Echo Trip i was thrown off by “jamaican language”. There was no ill intention behind that laugh.

Right, she is so cool that I thought they were grills too...until my kids mentioned that she’s still in braces. Oops 😬 😁
crazy
She is very young only 19 I think
Nz how you doubt someone for having a grill?? It doesn’t say anything about someone’s personality
The sheer flavour this performance displays is for the ages. Every musician happy to contribute their part, zero ego, all teamwork starting from the singer.... Great work!
I love her so much just dunno why...Keep soaring high GHANA is behind you.
Because she is a beautiful soul and young musical genius ❤
for real!!! 🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭
Ghannnnnnna 🥰
The backup singers SLAYED those harmonies HA-NEY!
They did not came to mess up...
The only reason to dislike this is because it ended
Big facts...
Trueeee
The energy flowing through the whole band is insane. I can’t stop coming back to this video. Incredible mixing from the NPR sound engineer, the crowd having a genuinely good time, and of course Koffee’s immaculate vibes. Looking forward to seeing her this August in London.
The version of Rapture on this is superior to all others 👌
Jamaica, Paris and London Represent💪🏾👑👌🏾
👊🏽🇬🇧
Maad🔥🔥🔥
Chrissi Brown huh
She is so FULL OF GRATITUDE. She said THANK YOU more than a million times in the course of this short tiny desk performance . Awesome HEART
Wow, this band loves playing together. So many little smiles and glances going around.
Maybe it's because they (keyboardist, drummer, and bassist) grew up together in Ghana and are actually like brothers who have played together for years.
@@yawacheampongadjei7517 whats their band name?
@@Genie3292 The Compozers
The tune is soul service
Love Koffee. She never disappoints. Also her braces looked good with her outfit, at first I thought they were grills 😂
I swear i did too lol
I love how she's always thanking God and showing gratitude in her songs, even when she's singing/rapping she looks up towards god. we love to see it!
D. Yes, but she sounds like she’s getting conceited. There’s no need to brag or talk or mention certain things. Otherwise, she sounded very nice and never miss a beat or fumble. She’s very talented or gifted. As for her style of dressing, that’s another story.
@@eahayes100 no. the rule is that when talking about God in the context of religion i.e Christianity or Islam the first letter is capitalised because it's a proper noun whereas when speaking about a deity outside of your religion it's "god".
Zawadiyah B hater.
hate to ruin the mood, but i'm pretty sure she sold her soul to the devil. It's cause she's does illuminati signs, especially with covering one eye. She's still a good artist tho.
good vibes Yh her videos have weird subliminal messages which did put my spirit off her but still an amazing musician
The percussionist though...He's having so much fun
TOO Much fun...
Y’all should hear the bass player 🔥 🔥
And white bwoy killing dem strings!!! 🔥
Sheree O'Connor defiantly a girl
They're all fizzing with joy. Happy crew - great vibe!

Shanice
u spoke my mind.
I’d never heard of Koffee, but this popped up on my TH-cam homepage this morning. INSTANT FAN!!!! PERIODT
Same
Get you some girl!🤗 Jamaica responding: Your welcome.
same here. definitely a fan now. great set. humble artist. amazing band
Bet you binged on her music afterwards?
Same thing happened to me. I saw a video on fb of her accapella in a shoe store in London
Koffee makes me proud to be Jamaican 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
Me to
there"s no reason no one should not be proud to be themselves
Cosmic Energy i am from angola,And when i meet Koffee every thing i wanted is be a jamaican😭
Big up to Jamaica from this Haitian gal 🇭🇹
Show the world we still have this beautiful style & passion in our music for sure 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
This is the most beautiful, spectacular, and captivating Tiny Desk ever! Koffee came out of nowhere and I knew I loved what I heard, but watching this brought that to a whole new level. The joy on the faces of her bandmates, her humble acknowledgement of each and every one of them(and lyrics about NPR), lyrical content, and just the overall performance. I don't even know what to say... Took my breathe away 💕💕💕
All this proves that...artist need to start putting live band version on their albums...we don’t need all that extra noise
It used to be that way, but it was cheaper to use electronics... bands phased out, and artists that once were known for also being engineers, producers, etc. became the norm.... I wanna hear live music ALL THE TIME
Seriously though, this is way better than the actual EP. Live instrumentation 🔥🔥🔥🔥
this proves that we need to invest into music again, instead of downloading and listening evrything for free.. how should they effort to pay a band record and all this time that goes into it?
@@MoechtegernPimP TRUTH
true. people long for a raw, authentic sound. our ears have been starved.
I didn't need more reasons to be proud to be Jamaican but Koffee really put the battery in my back over the last year. Big proud. No lie.

So consistent
I saw her in concert, best experience I’ve ever had. Such a talented artisttttt!!
Her live voice quality, clarity, breath control and band had me ABSOLUTELY mesmerized...wish to experience her live some day🥰🙏🏽🦋
I'm no music critic or musician, but I pride myself on recognizing talent when I hear it, and this is pure talent.
They had me at the first uhh-huh
C Gray yaaaaas
She's like Chronixx little sister who watched her big brother for a long time and really wanted to be like him. And she practiced and practiced and he helped her a bit and finally something absolutely unique happened and paid it all off. She's grown even bigger. Best npr, best female voice and future for the entire genre! Big Up Koffee!
Kornel Kaczmarek yesss! Chronixx is my favorite reggae singer and then when I saw that he had a part to play in her being where she is now I’m like this makes so much sense!
I love your interpretation big up yourself! 😇😍😚
Maybe she's just dope all on her own, love Chronixx but why attribute her success and musical stylings to a man unless she said so?
@Star I think Chronixx was/is a big inspiration to Koffee but we all know she just greatness that's all. We know she dope but the truth is networking can get you far in addition to being musicaly gifted. 😄
Wow thats sick
just incredible. i cant even put into words how amazing this girl is. she killed this
The background singer on the right is the most beautiful woman I've ever seen
Aswad Richards they’re both beautiful!!!!!
@@MoreMelanin1 they are both gorgeous but that's his opinion chill lol
On their right our our right? The BG singer on our left (Zena?) makes my heart skip a beat when the show her up close.
Don't go to Jamaica, you won't return home....lol
@@coachielala RIGHT!🤣
Tight band.
Backups lit and representing beautiful shades of black.
Koffee is excellent, such a professional, happy for her with all her successes.
Ms. Jack yessssss
She’s so humble aww
Iono why I'm just hearing about her. She soothing my earlobes wit her island vibes
She is one of the most humble humans I have ever seen. I don't see fame getting to this girls head at all. More people need to take note of how she acts because this is true righteousness.
A moment of silence to people who won't come across this masterpiece concert😭😭
👍
Ever
Could’ve been me but luckily I saw a post on insta and searched for the full video on TH-cam
Evelyn C Yuh lucky gal😂🥺
This something beautiful, good music
I get really emotional listening to Koffee's Tiny Desk concert and I can't nail down why. There's a purity and a joy in this group that is just so honest.
It has the same effect as gospel music.
I got emotional too. It’s performed from the spirit, for the spirit. No frills, no ego, no ... oh I dunno. Can’t nail down why either. But I feel it.
She's got the spirit of God all over her , that's why! I feel it too 💯
If you observe all the band members. They are all into it. They are enjoying themselves. They are feeling the spirit.
yup when toast goes on 😭😭😭
She writes on guitar , amazing lyrics.. but also has great voice and is one of best emcee’s I’ve heard in a while. She’s spot on. I love her music and she is a Lady how she conducts herself. A positive female role model .💚💛❤️🇯🇲
She’s just a breath of fresh air! I didn’t think anything could match up to “Toast” and then she dropped “W.” I listen to the song every morning !🔥🔥🔥🔥
Yeah, I just said that... I like W, but Toast is still my #1
olive okafor me too on my way to work❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Top 3 Tiny desk EASILY!!! Koffee sounds as close to the actual songs as can be. Her breathing techniques are phenomenally impressive. And those background vocals are a perfect marriage. On repeat!
Youngest reggae Grammy winner a rising queen indeed, she spitting bars
