Her highly esteemed music, vibrant style, and in-your-face visuals seen in her music videos such as “BOLD”, “DOUBLE DUTCH”, “WOO!” and her latest release, “BBM” are tokens for each and everyone to borrow some confidence from as she hopes to inspire her fans and listeners to be progressive and unperturbed in being their true selves in any given circumstance.
