BIA - MILLIONS (Live Session) | Vevo ctrl “Bia Biaaaaaa.” The Boston-native has a habit of placidly announcing herself as such on tracks, but these days rap fans can point her out in a second. A spate of hits that range in sound from G-Funky (“WHOLE LOTTA MONEY,” which has a version with Nicki Minaj) to UK drill (“Bamba” featuring Aitch) prove that her breathy flow is a friend to many styles. The secret is how she languidly wriggles into beats, laying down bars like a queen bee. It’s how she went line for line with first-rate rhymer J. Cole on “LONDON,” a single from her new ‘REALLY HER’ album. “I got good taste so I trust my taste,” says the self-described “R&B girl” and Aaliyah disciple. ‘REALLY HER’ is another reason to be excited about the female future of hip-hop. She taught two lessons on ctrl: one about relationship advice (“FALLBACK”) and one about finances (“MILLIONS”). Take notes. Follow BIA
