Musical style and influences
Misha B has been compared to several female artists, including Missy Elliott, Chaka Khan, Jennifer Hudson, Nicki Minaj, Tina Turner, Grace Jones and Eartha Kitt."People do compare me to various different people," she said. "Like, I get Missy Elliott a lot, which I think is just a lazy comparison. She's great, she's one of my main inspirations, but our styles are different." Misha B told So So Gay Magazine that her biggest musical influences were Missy Eliott, Tina Turner, Stevie Wonder and Michael Jackson (other musical influences include James Brown, Mariah Carey, Jennifer Hudson, Grace Jones, Lauryn Hill, Adele, Amy Winehouse, Mary J. Blige, Beyoncé Knowles, and Labrinth).
Bryan spoke of the influences of growing up in Moss Side, Manchester, saying in an interview:
Music is just something that I grew up literally living as part of daily life... Like we have our carnival every year which everyone looks forward to. Plus in the summer as well we also have these big parades that go on from early morning to the end of the day where you hear music just blasting from so many different places! They have the soca, the dancehall, the pop, the reggae, the bashment - you know, basically just everything you can think of!... Then growing up in my household was very, very soul heavy. So when you add all that together, I guess that’s where my influences come from. Like right now as I’m talking to you, I’m having this very, very big flashback where I'm remembering watching the Jackson 5 movie as a child over and over again - which is probably why Michael Jackson is my greatest inspiration.
In another Interview for this is local london:
"Reggae is a style close to my heart, and I love to draw on my Jamaican roots. So Drums and rhythm are a real priority to me, but it’s not just about the beat.
"Lyrics are equally important, and everything I write comes from real life experience and is from the heart. "
Bryan told MTV "I just can’t wait for people to hear my other music and then to be able to say 'That’s Misha B’s style'."

The lyrics to Misha B's song "Do You Think Of Me?" speak of a heartbreak caused by a significant other who has left the singer, leaving her to wonder if he still thinks of her. The song starts with the singer leaving the lights on in case her ex-partner comes back. She then plays an old song and hopes that he still remembers her. The chorus is an expression of her feelings, where she questions whether her ex-partner thinks of her whenever the night falls.
In the second verse, the singer is shown waiting by the telephone for a callback that never comes. She says that it has been too long to wait and tries to stay strong but is just one life away from breaking. She then questions if her ex-partner hears her calling his name.
Overall, the lyrics are emotional and beautifully express the heartbreak of a relationship that has ended.
