      Honestly, sorry but, everything about this song is good.. but her. I'm just not feeling it. And the video would of been great if the talent were there.. but sense its not.. it feels like an American copy and paste without the Spark!
      Nothing original to see or hear here, on top of her lazy flow.
      Like this video could be great, muted.
      Maybe she should an actress...
      Her presence is the best thing about her.. 🤷🏾‍♀️

      Jesus Christ wants a personal relationship with you through the Holy Spirit, not religion and blind faith. You see, we all have sinned, and have broken God’s law (The Ten Commandments). Wrong doing deserves justice and must be punished (just like how a criminal has to pay for the crime they have committed) but God saved us from the eternal punishment of our sins by sending His Son Jesus Christ, fullness of God in flesh, a perfect, sinless sacrifice to pay the penalty for our sins by dying on the cross and resurrecting, so that we may have everlasting life. It is all finished and now for you to accept the free gift of grace, you must repent of your sins and put your faith in Jesus Christ and Bible says that His Blood will cover all of your sins, you will be forgiven, saved from eternal punishment, and be given everlasting life. By faith you will receive the Holy Spirit, become born again, know Jesus personally and He will transform your heart and clean you from the inside out. Turn away from sin, read the Bible, pray for the Holy Spirit to fill you and change you, obey the Word. Much love and God bless you!

I might have to be one of those old heads at her concert when she comes in town. Extremely impressed by this and her body of work. When someone says hip hop is dead, turn them onto Little Simz.
