She’s got a cool voice but how’d she get this far?

Jhené Aiko paved the way

She’s a cool and popular r&b act whose biggest initial look was from her generation’s rap goat. Then there’s the fact that her musical tastes often mirror the same sensibilities that rap goats value. Hence, the natural inclination to collab

Beautiful voice

She has a great voice

She sings better than most the r&b girls and she still has mainstream appeal

she got pipes NIGGA

The same reason Mary J Blige blew up. Their music is R&b but also kept their vibes and music rap-adjacent at the same time.

she raw asl

songwriters find songwriters

drake put her on the map, built leverage for herself, label connects her with other artists, she proved herself thru the music, probably got better at her talents too, etc

i used to feel the same way till a shawty couple years back say my ass down and made me listen and i actually really liked it. she a relatable songwriter and at the end of the day those are the most successful.

shes talented as f*** and hot as f***
