Nepotism??? Is she really that great??? Good,yes. But more than that?? Questionable. Nice tune though.

i like all the unspoken sfuff in the song and video. Thw red black and green eyes. the red gols and green coloer over the red jumpsuit. and all th ehistory in the backdrop! is she talkin bout H.I.M(his imerial majesty)?

She’s got nice pipes….but this song is not well put together.

Plus, are we now gonna start having singing females trying to use the motown sound to get over???? It’s not a ‘shortcut.’ Not everyone can do it as well as raaphael saadiq or mark ronson.

LOL! She does look like Diana Ross! Anyway, I have to give her credit. She’s doing her own thing, and she’s not trying to sound like her big sister, Beyonce. She’s clearly making an effort to be her own artist without being known as “Little B.” The song’s not bad.

I dare not question her talent because I don’t have the answer to that riddle…
The feeling I get from the progressions and the notes makes me feel terrific!
I absolutely love the videos… Their totally cosmic and multilayered! That’s so missing!
beautiful pieces of work. It’s cool that she allowed herself to be a vessel for these expressions!

I know when someone is trying hard and she is one of them.She only pops out records when a trend is hot.I’m not buying into this bull crap.
