Up-and-coming rapper and star of the new "Sisterhood of Hip Hop" show, Brianna Perry, is letting folks know she's know your typical focus-on-my-booty sexed up raptress. She's got a college degree, and she's ready to follow her dreams. Check out the 22-year-old dishing to us about her dream collabos inside...
During last night's NYC press dinner for Oxygen's premiere of "Sisterhood of Hip Hop," our New York Corespondent caught up with "Marilyn Monroe" rapper Brianna Perry to find out how she plans to shake up the female rap game a bit.
We first peeped the Miami native back in 2012. Now, after graduating from The University of Miami and getting a few tracks and videos under her belt, she's ready for the big leagues.
On who she wants to work with on a dream collabo: "Kanye West…his mind is so wild and he is so creative. Beyonce…I’m a huge Beyonce fan. But def Kanye. These last few months of my life have been a period of growth for me. I recently graduated from The University of Miami and I feel like I have been going through a transition of really becoming a young woman, making more decision and really 'bossing up'. I don’t really regret anything from the past…it all got me to this point right now."
On how her family reacted to her new stardom: "My family is really supportive. They’ve been that way since the first time I picked up the mic. I just released a single on iTunes called “I’m that *itch” and they all have showed me so much love and keep encouraging me and pushing me. When you have that family support, it makes that journey a little easier."
As for what to expect from Ms. Perry, her bio in the press release for the Oxygen show says:
Describing her own music as “refreshing, young and relatable to her fans,” Brianna is restoring innocence to the female rap game and she refuses to compromise the femininity and the edge she needs to survive in today’s hip hop world.
