    Girl you are singing to a mojity white audience NO They don’t know about no collard greens and cornbread lol no but seriously i’m proud of her for staying true to her roots it just sucks that THATS what keeps her in that “box” of just reaching the “urban” audience, she needs to “cross over” in my opinion

    saywhat youwill

    This is why she won idol. She’s not over singing because she has a strong voice(side eye- JHud). Fatasisa voice is control and she do make the hair’s on the back of your neck stand up. Tasia is carrying that weight well for her role in her movie. Good luck Fastasia in all that you do.
