First off she is pop music the equivalent to BRANDY, second off, this effects the bay how? Its not like she's reppin it! the bitch grew up in the OAKLAND HILLS people, c'mon, get a grip. as far as "can actualy sing", so can millions of people and its mostly all studio shit dumbass. look at j-lo. if you gonna spend money on a album seriously go for someone who has some real effect on the bay, all her CD money is going to some big mcdonalds company. i do not remember her out here doing shows like the hungry people are doing out here, i dont see her supporting us, and i dont care who shes related too.
