Ok..cool..Always love the subtle and abstract. But I wanted more. It's a start, where does it end?
More of a poem than a song.

This takes me back to a point where females in hip hop could be flirtatious, even sexy without being reduced into caricatures. Among its virtues was the fact that hip hop made it a requirement for its artists to make some version of the statement "Look at me, I'm beautiful."
"Imperfections like beauty marks?" Overt references to nappy hair? Rare. No one seems to realize it, but there is a whole generation of people who grew up with hip hop, people who are almost old enough to be this artist's mother or father who are waiting for someone to be brave enough to make just this kind of music.

The song says that she is beautiful but she has
problems that she deals with, I think its good for her that she knows
she's pretty and that she is true to herself about her problems that
she is going through.
