Having already conquered America with multiple Platinum singles and two top 40 hits to her credit (all ahead of her debut album ‘Pretty B*tch Music’), Saweetie is looking to expand her brand to impact countries around the globe.
Globally, her most successful single to date, ‘Tap In,’ has tapped in to the charts of Canada, U.K., U.S., Australia, and more but – as revealed in a recent interview with the ‘Carlos Watson Show’ – the 26-year-old has her sights set on higher heights.
In a revealing chat uploaded Tuesday (November 24), the rapstress (born Diamonté Quiava Valentin Harper) not only expounded on her famous family tree – which includes rapper MC Hammer, actress Gabrielle Union, producer Zaytoven, and more – but also her thoughts on Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion, growing up Black and Filipino, and following the footsteps of Rihanna to launch a billionaire brand.
