It makes me sad to see some people aren't appreciating her new stuff. To me, you can really tell how much fun she is having with trying different beats while still maintaining her own style, especially all the hard work she puts into her music. That's what every artist should and want to do! It's about expanding and getting out of your comfort zone!
@tavarez170
Jenny Alegria Her? TOKiMONSTA is a "her"? :O
@alissamckleroy9522
@Apot correct she's a her. why so shocked?
@tavarez170
@Alissa McKleroy Been knowing about her music for years, and never knew it was a girl, tbh, lolololopolololol
@alissamckleroy9522
@Apot absolutely feel that. loved xxxtentacion's music for a min, never even knew what he looked like or who he was until after he died.
@alissamckleroy9522
but tokimonsta's story is cool. she got brain damage and it affected the way she heard music. sounded like noise to her. that's why her style changed so greatly.
