Siya Drops “Watch What You Say” Video feat. Sage The Gemini
Blessed with a fierce charisma and bars as hard as anybody in New York, Siya has all the characteristics of a rising star. Brooding in a mansion with ten of her best friends, Siya flexes her queenpin status under probing neon lights in “Watch What You Say,” her latest visual.
An eerie, minimalist, trap-boom bap hybrid produced by AK-1, “Watch What You Say” is an intimidating message to Siya’s haters. Watch What You Say” features a boisterous, tongue-twisting appearance from Sage The Gemini, who does his best Corey Hart impression in the mansion’s billiards room.
The breakout star of Oxygen‘s T.I.-produced The Sisterhood of Hip-Hop, a reality show starring five female rappers who navigate their way through the male-dominated music industry, the MC released SIYAvsSIYA, her debut album, last week.
Running a gamut of styles from the eerie minimalism of “Body” to the warm electronic of “Only You,” SIYAvsSIYA is a debut album worthy of Siya’s myriad talents. Featuring appearances from Sage The Gemini, Lyric Wright, Jake & Papa, Kreesha Turner,and Ashley Rose, the album posits a battle between the two conflicting sides of Siya’s personality.
On the first half of the album she leans on her brutal, tough “Bed-Stuy Bully” persona, attacking classic-style New York boom-bap beats with endless bars. The album’s second half displays her softer, more sensitive self, as she alternates between singing and rapping over textured, relaxed electronic instrumentals. Signed to Tank‘s R&B Money, the Brooklyn rapper is set to elevate her stardom through musical and non-musical means. SIYAvsSIYA is available to purchase on iTunes.
