Though only being on YouTube for a few days, her song has already garnered over nine million views and counting. This sudden rise to fame is quickly making her the new tween sensation to rival Ms. Black’s catchy tune Friday.
Some of the highlights of the video include her breaking into a prayer rap, singing into a chicken leg and generally having one of the best times while eating thanksgiving staples such as mashed potatoes and turkey.
