| Kreayshawn looks like Amy Winehouse & Lady Gaga's baby. |
The East Oakland native broke into the music industry in 2010, but didn't start to generate buzz until releasing a video for her track "Bumpin Bumpin" and launching a few PR stunts.
In May, Kreayshawn was unapologetic about using the N-word on both Twitter and in her raps and she then proceeded to take personal shots at rapper Rick Ross. Her behavior gave her the notoriety she was looking for, and then she got one of the biggest breakthroughs of her career this July when Lil' Wayne gave his stamp-of-approval on "Gucci Gucci" by doing a cover on his Sorry for the Wait mixtape.
Earlier this month, Kreayshawn got a chance to prove her skills by freestyling on Philly's Power 99 Cosmic Kev Show:
...and she was recently nominated as Best New Artist for the 2011 MTV VMAs.
Although her rap skills are up for debate, there is no doubt that Kreayshawn has struck gold with "Gucci Gucci." But if you ask me, Kreayshawn and "Gucci Gucci" are destined for the same fate as M.I.A. and "Swagger Like Us."
