Never praise any woman, but her femininity should be looked upon with great desire, I’m sure she would never attack anyone if she worked at a restaurant and was told “my fries are cold”
+Dwight Stewart I'm not in his head, but when she was younger; she looked African american/Asian; but as she's gotten "older" she looks "Asian" (I got it)
This is proof that this woman was way ahead of her time!! EVERYBODY knew that Beyoncé B-Day album was inspired by the sound of Amerie. She deserves so much more attention and was on her way, but she's too damn smart for the industry. Keep up the hard work Amerie!
airmix08 crazy in love as well she heard amerie samples and started to working with her producer and he gave Beyonce amerie’s sound that she herself created , one thing was very tumultuous for her the record label wanted to take it away from her and she published herself
If you don't know about Amerie listen to her very first album! Y'all I swear it's like one of the very few albums that I can listen to with no skipping songs. That's a classic album for real! I love her!
It's Tabaitha and on that album i swore she was the next Mary J.. hell all 3 of her albums you could listen to from the 1st to the last track with no pause/skips! So underrated as an innovative artist!
Your absolutely right, she beautiful , she's kind , very smart ,and I feel they are not listening to her , she is explaining and the two guys I am Not liking how they are throwing out questions to her,the lady who is a radio announcer is more kind to her.
she came before that in 02 she just had that 1 thing song and she was hot in the scene after but paid her dues also best songs were features number wit berg and life wit royce da5
Well with her I think they wanted her to answer wheather the rumors were true or not because they feel what we felt that someone trashed her career. I feel thats what they wanted
She's not boring as some have commented below. She's just not getting trapped by certain questions and is very intelligent. She is not trying too hard to sound smart and informed....she just is. Amerie articulates very well, expressing her thoughts clearly without hating on another, using profanity, getting shamed into not doing interviews again, sounding like a robot or coming across like an empty, bubble headed numbskull. She seems to really enjoy engaging with others. It's nice to actually hear her talk. I can def follow her thought process. Keep it up, girl!
I love Ameriie!! I'm glad she left the music scene for a while, even though she's not on top with the A list stars she still comes back and does the damn thing then leaves like nothing happened! Lol. It ain't about the fame with her, it's all about the art! She looks like she's loving life... She's aging gracefully!! She's so humble and successful... Great interview! 💕 #teamAmeriie
Stephen Pamphile keep you eye out for women like her!! This means put yourself in places where these women may hangout or attend. Go out to new places that you may not have been used to using and you will meet them!
I don’t understand why Charlemagne can’t get over the fact that this woman can do other things other than singing. Him asking her over and over why she left is so annoying.
Ameriie. your a great role-model for younger women. Intelligent, well spoken and strong, your an amazing person. Congratulations on your achievements, music and now writing.
I Perfectly understood the "brick in the wall" metaphor.. allow ppl to use their brains.. stop dumbing things down.. speak with analogies and metaphors to train the user/consumer or listener to use their brains. This is the problem with music in our culture...Smart ppl sound dumb to a dumb nigga.. after being desensitizing brainwash dumb people sound smart to dumb people. I love this type of woman.
+DocHicksTV Analogies and metaphors are only tools to assist in explaining your thesis or concept. She had a hard time getting her thesis across because, I believe, she's OCD. The analogies became useless because she didn't have a coherent, cogent thesis.
Triune Mind Production I totally understood everything she was saying. He was trying to pull a answer out of her that wasn't there. He was also trying to create a negative narrative about her absence. You can't give people the answers they want to hear or believe within themselves. Along with chasing headlines and digging for a answer to why she left the Industry, Angela Yee was the only one who asked any question that had any research behind it, I respect your comment however I fully understood everything she said.
I don't think she had a hard time explaining, but it was just like another commenter said in that char was trying to get her to water her own explaination down and for what? People need to put on their thinking caps and think!!! Lol I love love love Amerie and never knew her in this way. I'm so pleased to see this!
I absolutely love Amerie!! She's so classy, smart, extraordinarily beautiful and talented!! I want more Amerie in the industry and the world needs this type of vibe today
"Talkn' to Me" was and still is my jam! 🙌🏾 she also had legs for days in that "1 thing" video made me want to do some leg curls, dead lifts and lunges after watching it. 😊
Earl Mells One Thing was noisy because it was a sample from the track "Oh Calcutta" by The Meters. It was a 2 bar loop....almost untouched. Way before Go-Go was even a thought....know before you speak.
I really enjoyed this interview. Not because of the questions but because of who she is as a person. I could listen to her talk all day because she's so intelligent and well spoken. Such a breath of fresh air!
They tried to bait her so many times to get the sensational sound bite but she answered every question superbly. She didn't fall in the trap. Her albums were crazy dope and I believe like she said timing was the thing. She was one the first to have the harder rap types beats that were loud like One Thing. She was under-developed and under promo-ed.
actually Jhene, her sister Mila J, and their other sister had a group around the time Immature was out. They were signed to Chris Stokes back in the day. I used to have the posters lol
Ameriie is so underrated. All of her albums went hard and her first two were soooo good. She effortlessly blended Hip-Hop and R&B with the best production.
OH. MY. GAWD. I swear Ameriie has such a beautiful soul that it is beyond me. Like I am taken aback. She expresses herself with such optimism, insight, and grace. And I love how she is so focused on timing and making sure things are always in alignment with her vision: It tells me that she is a very spiritually cultivated woman. This lady has literally inspired me to delve into my creative mind. Everyone in that room was harmonized and this is by FAR my favorite Breakfast Club interview ! And also, her husband is SO LUCKY ! ! ! He should be thanking the heavens like every single day !
What a refreshingly classy Lady. The industry probably couldn’t handle a beautiful, intelligent, and self-assured woman with a strong mind. The interviewers were unable to ruffle her, and she brushed off their crudity in a very lady-like way, while re-directing the conversation back into an interview. She wasn’t there to be joked on.
+devyvalentino man i had a blasian just like her, only chick i ever fell in love hard for, i fucked up so bad losing her, treated her like shit smh, worst mistake i ever made
Ameriie is very humble and down to earth. She will never admit Beyonce took her producer and her sound... while AMERIIE isn't Beyonce... she was Beyonce before Beyonce went solo.. Beyonce stronged armed her (check her sound) Ameriie had that "Crazy in Love" sound from the very beginning of her career people... Ameriie could dance, sing and had the image... HOWEVER... Beyonce had all the power and took her sound, her swag and her career. Check the facts. Check out Crazy in love (which is one of her top 3 songs) and DeJa Vu (all Ameriie sound people). She will remain uncomfrontational and drama free that's why she won't feed into Charlamagn and The rest of the questions. She's very smart but to a fault. I think she should really speak up and own her sound... Beyonce took it... point blank. #word!
Shea Shine wow... "Ass face"??? Lol. Ok. I swear I'm not making it up. It is just the truth. Beyoncé took what she wanted... It's really no biggie... It's the industry way. The big fish eat the little fish. So... Because of my age though, I won't put on my clown suit with you... Rogue remarks in an opinionated discussion is classless and shows a low level of intellect to have a thoughtful conversation. So.. Yeah.
Lol... Go back to ameriie first album bro. She's always had that DC sound. ONE THING was her last hit. Also look at who produced those hits.... Also... Look at where Ameriie is now bro. Trying to wrestle with doing EP''s??? She was stripped into submission. She didn't want to play those industry games and fight with execs over whether she she go more edgy like Beyoncé who had all the momentum and power in her corner. Come on now...Work with me. You can't see the writing on the wall????.
^ I think we all need to start speaking out against her ourselves lol. She can't do shit if we're not known and lay down the facts in a persuasive/cunning way.
Yess Ameriie. Soo happy to see you !!! I lived when i heard you on the breakfast club that morning. I cant wait to hear amd READ your new works. Many blessings !!!
Let's be clear on a couple things here because a lot of you are young as hell and know nothing on what you're speaking. Amerie's debut, All I Havs, was IT. That album is EASILY one of my top five favorite albums and this is coming from a Beyoncé Stan. I had the pleasure of meeting her years ago and she was EXTREMELY sweet. When she released Touch, she was still working with Rich Harrison, who infused a lot of the go go sound that many of you hear on that album. Rich is the one who offered Crazy in Love to Bey and from my understanding, Amerie and Rich had a falling out because she felt that he gave her sound to Bey. Bey didn't "steal" sh*t. In my opinion, Rich is to Amerie what Dark Child was to Brandy or what Timbaland and Missy were to Aaliyah. Remove that magic from any of those people and you're not likely to have the same material from the artist. Amerie is beautiful, extremely talented, and I still believe she could have a music career if that's what she's pushing for.
(Cont) but based on this interview, I can tell that she does it when she wants because she loves it and would rather not be driven by a machine. It should also be noted that while I can't vouch for her and Rich's falling out 100%, it always made perfect sense to me because after Touch, she started being all over the place with her sound. Rich, IMO, brought the best out of her. Anyway, she and Kourtney Kardashian are clearly twins. Amerie, you're the shit. Keep rocking!
+DeJah La or I could just be one who pays attention to shit rather than making broad assumptions or generalizations based on what I "want" rather than what is.
Well she also calls DC her home so of course go-go is inbred in her. Side note my older brother was in her 1st video "Why Don't We Fall In Love" and I got to meet her on set. Even though she wasn't famous yet she was super cool and hung out with me and my mom and brother and sister during those 2 days of shooting & stayed friends with my brother and mother for years until they passed away.
EVERYTHING about this comment is accurate. Her and Rich had a falling out and he started working with Beyonce, but also Ameriie started reaching out to other producers for her 2nd album. Rich was like her Darkchild, I used to think the same exact thing for years. And yes her debut can be played front to back. No SKIPS.
That was real tacky the way Charlamagne kept throwing Beyoncé in her face. He was CLEARLY trying to bait her into shading Bey so the pesky ass fleahive will go on the attack (with their no life having asses). Luckily she was too classy & mature to take the bait. I respect that. #TeamClass #TeamMaturity #TeamUnbreakable
My wife put me up on Ameriie first album the songs nothing like loving you and show me. That album is a slept on classic, all of you who haven't heard it check it out you wont be disappointed trust me.
OMG! I love this woman. She reminds me of myself in a way. Especially in terms of not taking herself serious and not wanting to do what others are doing or not just taking a deal because of money without even knowing if the product you're representing actually works. She seems great.
Shes a Dime Piece that is Ambitious and Full of Life I love that about her and she can really sing and dance shes incredible live...She deserves more credit for vocal talent
You know she is a good girl. That is why you like to see her play bad. Her performance at world music awards with Sheila E is an all time classic. One day many years from now she will have her late moment and get her flowers. And that record „Man Up“ with NAS was among the best ever recorded.
+prehatredism p for real though, I accidentally had some of her old hits shuffled into my playlist and then ended up putting them on repeat wondering where she disappeared to. Happy to hear she got some EPs coming though
Absolutely still love Ameriie. Shes gorg, super smart & so cerebral. Im so glad she's still doing her thang! She blows Bey outta the water biggly! Personality, she writes her music, books, movie (she mentioned), plus shes awesome performer... best of all is that she dont crave attention nor validation coz she's got a good head on her shoulders! Bless yu gal. Keep doing ya thang! Like she said, the timing wasnt right for her back in 01- 06... She still got it. She still got it all.😍🖤💕
This interview was amazing. Y'all asked her great questions and she's usually hush hush about her personal and professional life. Great to see her happy and releasing new music and books! So talented!
she had true genuine talent. No auto-tunes - just pure raw singing ability. Her dancing was classy not disgustingly disrespectful. In my opinion she was highly over looked on purpose. People flocked to Beyonce and all these other fakes.
She's right about if you read books a lot, you may lack people to share it with. This is painfully an issue in the black community. Too many of us don't read a lick. That's one of the reasons why we're so vulnerable to those who understand psychology and use it against us and whitewash our history because we don't research ourselves to know better.
"Why don't we fall in Love" is thee summer anthem in my eyes. It's like how Will Smith's "Summer time" is the "ok/acknowledgement" button in which you know summer is here , same with this...Summer love, fun..etc
She's beautiful. There is just something about Blasians that brings out some beautiful people! Karrueche, Ameriie, Jhene Aiko, and Cassie to name a few.
Wow I just became a fan! She is such an interesting artist and overall person. And very smart, strong and confident. Versatile! She writes songs AND books! What a fantastic mind.
Exactly 5 years today and I stumbled on this video...hmmm. After listening to her talk and getting to know her, I checked her birthday and I am not surprised. Love to see more of her, her talent is remarkable.
women like her don't get praised enough..
cant go wrong bein urself and I never can find them
That part!
her latest eps are amazing. have you heard them?
She needs way more songs to make it as a singer, but okay.
Never praise any woman, but her femininity should be looked upon with great desire, I’m sure she would never attack anyone if she worked at a restaurant and was told “my fries are cold”
Every shady comment just rolled off her back. She is just on another level.
Nikeisha Joseph she isn't easy to manipulate. She is taking the interview in the direction she wants it. She is smarter than everyone in the room .
Yes! I LOVE IT! ❤️👏🏽
Yeasssssssss
@@dharmony7644 That's right she's got something to say and she's gonna be heard!
Shade is being thrown at her, but LADIES don't respond to pettiness.
I like everything about this girl! From her mentality to her look... all of it.

+legba eshu weird!!!!
Y'all know why Ameriie didn't have a household name. She didn't sell her soul. Stay indie all of your fans got your back.--PY
Thank you. They keep asking why she left. It's pretty obvious. We all know what you have to do in order to be a prominent artist in the higher ranks.
@Ranetta Maxwell they were both signed to the same label and Beyonce was the bigger star so they put all their focus on her instead of Amerie
Right! The industry can be grimey. She stayed true to herself.
Amen!!
@Patrick Yarbrough Jr. Exactly, that goes without saying, she refused to sell her soul which is why she is not as big.
This is proof that this woman was way ahead of her time!! EVERYBODY knew that Beyoncé B-Day album was inspired by the sound of Amerie. She deserves so much more attention and was on her way, but she's too damn smart for the industry. Keep up the hard work Amerie!

Victor Jimenez Crazy in Love came before 1 Thing. Ameriie used Bey’s producer AFTER CIL
@@An-eb8uk Wrong
Crazy in love came out in 2003, 1 Thing came out in 2005
Amerie worked with Rich Harrison first & was working on this go-go sound before “Crazy In Love” was even thought of🤷🏾♂️💯
Her first album " All I Have" was a straight through classic. She's so underrated to me.
All I have still have me catching feelings.
Definitely a classic🎇🎇🎇Amerie is a staple of nostalgic early 2000s💫🌟
Art
Absolutely
So unique and so nostalgic
If you don't know about Amerie listen to her very first album! Y'all I swear it's like one of the very few albums that I can listen to with no skipping songs. That's a classic album for real! I love her!
It's Tabaitha FOR REALLLL
Yup
Real deal rnb
I like "Touch" better.
It's Tabaitha and on that album i swore she was the next Mary J.. hell all 3 of her albums you could listen to from the 1st to the last track with no pause/skips! So underrated as an innovative artist!
She should've been 10x as popular .. She's special. Way ahead of her time..
Padre-D Productions She should’ve been 5x times as popular than Lady Gaga, Taylor Swift, and Katy Perry!
Very special
Now this is a good role model for girls and women.
And unfortunately that's why her career didn't go as well as it should've
They want her to be messy and she doesn’t do mess. She’s a lady.
Your absolutely right, she beautiful , she's kind , very smart ,and I feel they are not listening to her , she is explaining and the two guys I am
Not liking how they are throwing out questions to her,the lady who is a radio announcer is more kind to her.
Are you a lady too?
Isn’t that what shanaynay would say I don’t do mess cause I’m a lady 🦹🏾♀️
Amerie is so refreshing and humble, and she's not over exposed I love that about her! She's level headed, almost perfect!
Her intellect speaks volumes, her calling is beyond the music industry. Could listen to her speak all day.
I love the fact that she's intelligent, sophisticated and beautiful. I've been a fan of hers, every since she came out in 02.
Aaris Gage where is the name Aaris from? It's very nice.
she came before that in 02 she just had that 1 thing song and she was hot in the scene after but paid her dues also best songs were features number wit berg and life wit royce da5
Me too
Breakfast Club is so messy. It's sad, you have this eclectic, beautiful, intelligent woman, and they want shade from her.
Jordan Clemons I’m sure she prepared herself before
Jordan Clemons, And are shading her 😒
That's why I'm always torn watching these clowns. They're trash but their guests are always on point.
Well with her I think they wanted her to answer wheather the rumors were true or not because they feel what we felt that someone trashed her career. I feel thats what they wanted
Jordan Clemons they don’t know anything but drama I’m sure she frightens them
This is the girl you bring home to mom, marry, and start a family with.
Izzy Jaxon hell yeah
Facts
Say. It. Again.
yes indeed
Absolutely, and she’s always been this way

Rogue remarks in an opinionated discussion is classless and shows a low level of intellect to have a thoughtful conversation. So.. Yeah.
+B Hutch Crazy In Love came out before One Thing...it was Beyonce's sound. Amerie was doing regular R&B.
Lol... Go back to ameriie first album bro. She's always had that DC sound. ONE THING was her last hit. Also look at who produced those hits.... Also... Look at where Ameriie is now bro. Trying to wrestle with doing EP''s??? She was stripped into submission. She didn't want to play those industry games and fight with execs over whether she she go more edgy like Beyoncé who had all the momentum and power in her corner. Come on now...Work with me. You can't see the writing on the wall????.
B Hutch she won't ever admit that. everyone knows what happens when you speak bad about bey
^ I think we all need to start speaking out against her ourselves lol. She can't do shit if we're not known and lay down the facts in a persuasive/cunning way.
beautiful and intelligent, these
are the type of women a lot of men are

+BVDD CHXD lol@ all tree of them
Even her speaking voice is silky and smooth. I LOVE Ameriie and cannot wait to hear some new music. She's super dope!
We need more Amerie!!!! 2023 Comeback with a hit!
She’s the type woman you chose over an instagram model any day
"Skinny Minny"!? Wtf? Dj Envy asks the stupidest questions. She's 35 years old , he should've atleast said "a slim woman" . Smh
She's 36 in this btw
@@tomisinosabia967 oh Lord. You really felt the need to say that like there's much difference between 35 and 36 🤣😂😭😭😭😭
She has the best legs ever!
MK i remember in her hayday she said she insured them for a million or someshit lol
Yes she does 😍😍😍
Can't forget those legs. Wow
@MK You are really beautiful.
Her legs are AMAZING 🤩
Charlamagne od'd on the Beyonce questions. Ameriie handled herself very well
Yess Ameriie. Soo happy to see you !!! I lived when i heard you on the breakfast club that morning. I cant wait to hear amd READ your new works. Many blessings !!!
She had one of the best singing voices I ever heard
Her vocals on Nas 'Rule' is classic.
YEEEEEEES!!!
Also on Nas “The Rest Of My Life” 👏🏽
ColtraneMusic HER VOCALS ON EVERYTHING IS CLASSIC!.
@@WesleyCornelio timesless song smh

🙌
+Omar Scruggs 2nd year of marriage and seen her and was like damn.
mannn I was in 8th grade but it was still fire ooooo smooth
+JKirv hell yea but it was my last year 8th grade finna enter high school
I always loved Amerie she didn’t sell her soul that’s why I loved her good artists don’t need limelight they got it
I love her and glad she's back with music! She's a beautiful, creative person inside & out which is amazing
"it's so hard for girls to control their own image" this sentence should be eternalized.
Let's be clear on a couple things here because a lot of you are young as hell and know nothing on what you're speaking. Amerie's debut, All I Havs, was IT. That album is EASILY one of my top five favorite albums and this is coming from a Beyoncé Stan. I had the pleasure of meeting her years ago and she was EXTREMELY sweet. When she released Touch, she was still working with Rich Harrison, who infused a lot of the go go sound that many of you hear on that album. Rich is the one who offered Crazy in Love to Bey and from my understanding, Amerie and Rich had a falling out because she felt that he gave her sound to Bey. Bey didn't "steal" sh*t. In my opinion, Rich is to Amerie what Dark Child was to Brandy or what Timbaland and Missy were to Aaliyah. Remove that magic from any of those people and you're not likely to have the same material from the artist. Amerie is beautiful, extremely talented, and I still believe she could have a music career if that's what she's pushing for.
(Cont) but based on this interview, I can tell that she does it when she wants because she loves it and would rather not be driven by a machine. It should also be noted that while I can't vouch for her and Rich's falling out 100%, it always made perfect sense to me because after Touch, she started being all over the place with her sound. Rich, IMO, brought the best out of her. Anyway, she and Kourtney Kardashian are clearly twins. Amerie, you're the shit. Keep rocking!
+DeJah La or I could just be one who pays attention to shit rather than making broad assumptions or generalizations based on what I "want" rather than what is.
Well she also calls DC her home so of course go-go is inbred in her. Side note my older brother was in her 1st video "Why Don't We Fall In Love" and I got to meet her on set. Even though she wasn't famous yet she was super cool and hung out with me and my mom and brother and sister during those 2 days of shooting & stayed friends with my brother and mother for years until they passed away.
+DeJah La no problem! No offense taken boo!
EVERYTHING about this comment is accurate. Her and Rich had a falling out and he started working with Beyonce, but also Ameriie started reaching out to other producers for her 2nd album. Rich was like her Darkchild, I used to think the same exact thing for years. And yes her debut can be played front to back. No SKIPS.
I love her😍😍😍😍!!! I bought each album twice. Whatever she put out I will always support. Love the interview.
her husband is definitely a lucky dude..
general67 Lucky
That was real tacky the way Charlamagne kept throwing Beyoncé in her face. He was CLEARLY trying to bait her into shading Bey so the pesky ass fleahive will go on the attack (with their no life having asses). Luckily she was too classy & mature to take the bait. I respect that.

I love Amerie been rocking with her from day one she is very beautiful and intelligent. GOOD interview
Amerie is so pretty, her song "Talkin to me" was my ish
My wife put me up on Ameriie first album the songs nothing like loving you and show me. That album is a slept on classic, all of you who haven't heard it check it out you wont be disappointed trust me.
I'm bout to cop me a physical
todd melvin “Nothing Like Loving You” is the jam for sure
One of my favorite RnB singers of all time...kinda underrated. She's a real nerd lol
Love her, she’s a great and even necessary role model. She never conformed to the industry ♥️
OMG! I love this woman. She reminds me of myself in a way. Especially in terms of not taking herself serious and not wanting to do what others are doing or not just taking a deal because of money without even knowing if the product you're representing actually works. She seems great.
Shes a Dime Piece that is Ambitious and Full of Life I love that about her and she can really sing and dance shes incredible live...She deserves more credit for vocal talent
You know she is a good girl. That is why you like to see her play bad.
Her performance at world music awards with Sheila E is an all time classic.
One day many years from now she will have her late moment and get her flowers.
And that record „Man Up“ with NAS was among the best ever recorded.
Omg I loooove Amerie. What a lovely woman.
A woman like her is worth marrying. Loves to read and write. Doesn't have the need to show off her body on social media for attention.
She’s so amazing! I love how she doesnt try to bash anyone
Damn. I been wondering where this woman was at. Good to see her.
+prehatredism p for real though, I accidentally had some of her old hits shuffled into my playlist and then ended up putting them on repeat wondering where she disappeared to. Happy to hear she got some EPs coming though
Absolutely still love Ameriie. Shes gorg, super smart & so cerebral. Im so glad she's still doing her thang! She blows Bey outta the water biggly!
Personality, she writes her music, books, movie (she mentioned), plus shes awesome performer... best of all is that she dont crave attention nor validation coz she's got a good head on her shoulders!
Bless yu gal. Keep doing ya thang!
Like she said, the timing wasnt right for her back in 01- 06...
She still got it. She still got it all.😍🖤💕
This interview was amazing. Y'all asked her great questions and she's usually hush hush about her personal and professional life. Great to see her happy and releasing new music and books! So talented!
she had true genuine talent. No auto-tunes - just pure raw singing ability. Her dancing was classy not disgustingly disrespectful. In my opinion she was highly over looked on purpose. People flocked to Beyonce and all these other fakes.
She's right about if you read books a lot, you may lack people to share it with. This is painfully an issue in the black community. Too many of us don't read a lick. That's one of the reasons why we're so vulnerable to those who understand psychology and use it against us and whitewash our history because we don't research ourselves to know better.
"Why don't we fall in Love" is thee summer anthem in my eyes. It's like how Will Smith's "Summer time" is the "ok/acknowledgement" button in which you know summer is here , same with this...Summer love, fun..etc
She's beautiful. There is just something about Blasians that brings out some beautiful people! Karrueche, Ameriie, Jhene Aiko, and Cassie to name a few.
It's because black don't crack and Asian don't raisin. It's the perfect combination 😏😂
+IRN REP Oh believe me Asians do raisin looool
+031ish Only Ameriie on your list is fine. Now a real fine blasian you should look up is Chanel Iman.
Kenny aka TI that's just a matter of opinion.
031ish Of course it is.
Wow I just became a fan! She is such an interesting artist and overall person. And very smart, strong and confident. Versatile! She writes songs AND books! What a fantastic mind.
She's on another level of intellect. She had some hits.
Exactly 5 years today and I stumbled on this video...hmmm. After listening to her talk and getting to know her, I checked her birthday and I am not surprised. Love to see more of her, her talent is remarkable.
She is my type of girl very beautiful and normal
I'm so tired of bad bitches
agree 💯👍
