The 23 year old, who recently opened for Beyonce, is from Barbados and reportedly good friends with Rihanna. She was recently signed to Universal Motown Records and you can get more info about the upcoming artist on her official website.

nice i love the song.
niiiiice
it’s the summer,
i’m a need her to come a little harder if she wants people to remember
but i can here a lot of school girls singing this at a talent show or something
it sounds like her other song……..n a lil pop-ish……its ok i guess, if thats what u like…she can sing tho…unlike some people
She has a really nice voice, and the song is pretty cool.
Besides that, she aight.
Its ok,,put me in the mind of robyn givens.
the song is cool and she can sing unlike some other people.lol…For the last time, she knows rihanna from barbados that does not make them friends.. can you please leave rihanna out of this post please.. let shontell shine on her own please.. she can sing after all..like her!!!!!!!!!!
she also kinda looks like tweet..
poor thang she still tryin
isnt this the same girl that had that wack as* single t shirt or somethin like that?
@ 3 It do sound like her other song “T-Shirt”. Its jst the beat basically. @ 6 its not all that serious. Shontelle is gonna shine on her own regardless ok.! Ugh.The video is pretty cool, could have been better, but heyy…im not the directer.
The reason why they said she’s friend’s with Rihanna is because Shontelle herself said she’s friends w/her and she was talking about the situation with Rihanna or whatever.
More like Shontelle brought Ri up.
Sorry.! Meant #7
I think she should change her eyebrows.
Umm…. I could’ve sworn that she released this video ages ago.
She’s bringing nothing new, nothing refreshing, nothing unique. The world will not be lost if weren’t blessed with her singing…so my verdict is she can sit her azz down somewhere…..I know it’s fair to give each individual a chance, but honestly, just cause you can sing don’t make you a singer…you gotta have something unique, a unique sound, or come with a unique something, this chick is giving me nothing, probably other than the the fact that she’s been able to work her way up to some big names in the industry and they trying to help her out….will that make me go out and buy her music, HELL NO…she can surround herself and be friends with the biggest names, i could careless!
Sorry, but i’m just so disenchanted with all the best artists either not selling or deceased, and all the bullshyt is just flying off the shelves….I hate the direction music have gone in, in the last 8 years…mostly a bunch of garbage.
jscene u aint never lied
especially bout what music is flyin off the shelves these days..
i dont know what happened which is why i still listen to music from the 90s when it was actually good
I see that you didn’t post that this song is on the Obama album?
=S
Shontelle opened for Beyonce? Well then, looks like I like her..lol..
I HONESTLY don’t feel like watching this so..um..I’m going to have to past. I played if for 5 seconds and kept dragging the “thing” across the screen and I concluded that the song sounds OKAY, the video looks OKAY and she is PRETTY. That = UNORIGINAL!
The beat is ok. The lyrics I like most. My brother used to get his lunch money taken for a while when he was in grade school. I had to holla at thise kids for him. Conversation and a talk with that kids brother worked. Bother finally learned how to take care of himself. Big Sis!
@JSCENE, I still stand by what I said, but I 100% agree with you.
#16, when it comes 2 90′s music……….you & me both hunny. I’m witchu on that one.
Yeah it’s okay, not amazing, but it’s nice.
I must admit her voice is 10x better than Rihanna’s. Plus she seems to have more charisma than Rihanna also.
video of course wack as fuck and song sucks lol
black music today anti black now and has become worse!
she’s ok. she seems a bit popular in the UK though… she should stick to that.
@ 21 …I seriously disagree Shontelle having more charisma than Rihanna….Shontelle can sing and is kinda cute but she is lacking personality and charisma to make it real BIG. Theres nothing to her thats interesting its all Blah to me.
SONTELLE IS SOO WACK
ESP @ WTF & ONITLIKESONIC
Funny to me how ppl are trying to take cheap shots at Rihanna when One Rihanna is not a horrible singer.
Like Your saying shes a better singer based off a video NOT a live Performance…Seriously lol They just really dont lke Rihanna.
they need to show Rihanna the respect she deserves for all shes accomplished..she aint do sh*t to yall!
Shes good nice voice cool song I see why she opened up for Beyonce but she should have showed a little Sasha Fierceness in the scenes where shes wearing the army hat I mean at least did some strong posing.
Shontelle can sing, but i’m not feeling the vid so much
she looks like rihanna! rihanna better watch out!
mmmm! the people always said that she is 23 years old… nop nop nop… she is more older than that… i remember that i visited her myspace around 2006 and i saw that she was 24……. 23 … but she is around 27 years old
The song was nice and catchy but I’m soo SICK of how this girl’s career is based on being a bootlegged cheap imitation of Rihanna. She looks like Rihanna’s uglier sister, sounds exactly like her but lacks Rihanna’s swagger and charisma, thus making her extremely boring. I just wish artists had the guts to tell their labels NO, i.e “no i’m not going to sing bootlegged rihanna songs just because she’s on a break.”
However Shontelle is doing okay in the UK (well in london) one of her songs got qute a bit of airplay when i was last in london, but i haven’t heard them play her stuff anywhere else. The fact that her career is based on filling the temporary void of Rihanna just means that when Ri comes back, Shontelle’s 10 minutes of fame will be up.
People keep on Sleeping in Shontelle, her last album was okay but she needs to go hard with her next album her label needs to get the top song writers and and beat makers , she will be successful I’m sure of it.
…fail
mediocre voice, average talent..why would anyone accept this level of mediocrity? Shontelle please sit down!
shontelle is almost 26….born in 83 not 85
@ jscene
UR such JOKE and , it seems like you think that u know the INDUSTRY . TRY doing this , ,,,,,,Shut the Fuck up ! fool
This young girl has more than Beyonce ass , she can sing .
Thats my opinion dudessssss
This girl has a better voice
More charismatic, probably more of a personality aswell
This is crap. I like the title and the idea behind the song. She seems too old to be trying to pull this sound off, it just doesn’t fit. And why do they have the lil girl fighting for the boy now. That lil dude should have still tall for his darn self. So they start their emasculation scheme early. Smh, BS.
um i think one rihanna is enough. whoever she is signed too is def trying to go for the same style in songs and clothes. she looks just like her and ciara put together. very masculine.
can anyone from barbados dance? the weave is tired. the clothes are tired and the song is even more tired.
shontelle is def riding the whole rihanna wave and all bc its ur friend, do something different
WACK!!!!!
who? never heard of her before
This song is a little old…I’ve had it on my IPod for awhile..but I love the song.
During the campaign season the Obama camp actually picked up this song and made it apart of their campaign and she did a video for the Obama campaign with this song, it’s on YouTube.
OH BLAH WHO CARES!
I WANT MORE MJ POSTS!!!!
YOU CAN’T GO FROM THE KING TO THIS BULLSH1T!!!
She reminds me of Rhiana. the song was just ok and the vid was blah
at least she can sing…i give her that, and that only
Needless to say, sports are the best way to comunicate for people, but you may not know the special Big and Tall place —BigTalls Co m—- which you talk about sports, se-xy footall ba-bies, hot mo-dels, BBWS….
damn this song is pretty old on my list, and btw. i thought there was already a video made for this song? correct me if im wrong.. anyway, she does not look like rihanna at all.. nothing, no physical similarities, nada…
blah….i almost fell asleep….come harder hun.
This song is nice – but I think she would be a lot more exciting as a rap artist – Check her out on the J-Status song Roll ft Rihanna.
JUST STOP. SHE LOOKS NOTHING LIKE RIHANNA!
YOU ARE ONLY SAYING THIS BECAUSE SHE IS FROM BARBADOS!
SHE WISHES SHE LOOKED LIKE RIHANNA!
SHE COULD FALL OFF THE FACE OF THE EARTH AND NO ONE WOULD MISS HER MUSIC AT ALL!
ugh!! Rihanna you have nothin to worry about, thats all I have to say.
@38 & 41 tottally agree
“I hate the direction music have gone in, in the last 8 years…mostly a bunch of garbage.”-JSCENE
SAID VERY WELL. THANK YOU
Okay CL, every other site is already posting on the BET awards. Come on Angel, where u at?????
i knew about her prior to her coming out in the US or UK she used to be a drill sargent for the cadet corps where she met rihanna and they became friends. shontelle is an ok singer but a much better song writer
it was wack. nothing more to add.
Cute video….but song is kinda boring
Damn Angel, I know the BET Awards sucked major but not even one post? Yall alright over there?
It’s a okay sound
This song is wack, I’m sorry. I guess the EBT Awards wasn’t worth posting.
LOL @ Angel not having posted a thread on the BET Awards yet.
