Imagine what Chris Brown, Lil Wayne and Busta Rhymes are thinking when they see this white girl rapping and then actually singing the entire song without an edit, live, and without autotune!

They also have some original stuff here. Acoustic and cajon pop music. Cool!

Much better than many of the current young crop of female (and male) singers that seem to just "bellyache" as a form of singing, like "Lady Gaga", so many of the performers on American Idol, etc.
