Here's How Sexyy Red Shot to Stardom 🚀

In this new interview with Angie Martinez, Sexyy Red shared her journey from a young girl with a knack for hustling to a rising star in the music industry. The conversation was a refreshing mix of honesty, humor, and defiance, capturing the essence of a woman who is unapologetically herself.

Sexyy Red discovered her rapping talent in an unexpected setting. "I was rapping to my boyfriend and his friends, and they liked it," she recalled. "I was 18 going on 19 when I realized I had something special." This realization marked the beginning of her journey, one that would soon be catapulted by a viral video. "I was outside, living by the day, just having fun," she said, describing the moment that changed her life. After her boyfriend cheated on her, she channeled her emotions into a diss track. "I called this dude who had a little camera. My boyfriend said, 'That’s hard…you should get in the booth for real.' He ended up being my baby daddy after that."

Despite her initial surprise at her rapid rise to fame, Sexyy Red wasn't entirely surprised. "I was shocked to see how it really went crazy…but I knew it was gonna go." Her confidence and determination were evident, traits that have undoubtedly contributed to her success. When asked if she cares about public opinion, her response was refreshingly candid. "I just be doing sh*t. I don't care what people got to say…even if they don’t like it. I make music for me. I don’t be thinking too hard." This nonchalant attitude extends to all areas of her life, including her pregnancy. "A lot of people said it was not a good time. I don't care, I do what I want to do. All I thought was I need two babysitters now."

Announcing her pregnancy on Instagram was another moment of raw honesty. "I just poked it out…I was hiding it for a long time then I got tired and just posted it." And just three days after giving birth, she was back at it, shooting the "Rich Baby Daddy" video with Drake. "Drake said we should do it like this….I had just popped out my baby and then I went to shoot the video with Drake."

Her performance at the BET Awards was equally spontaneous. "I only went to two rehearsals. I don’t even practice. I be having fun. I don’t be caring…you just go with your mood." This carefree approach has been a constant in her life. "I just don’t care. I’ve always been quiet and nonchalant." Losing the Best New Artist award to Tyla at the BET Awards didn't faze her. "I don't care about the awards. I know I shoulda won. Maybe I'm more fit for a Grammy. I don’t need the BET award." For Sexyy Red, fame is about more than accolades she says she loves "the money, the stuff I get, free clothes, free hair…I can get it for free now. I love it."

Her industry relationships are genuine and supportive. "It’s a couple of people I like. I support the girls, the boys. I F**k with everybody." Even in the face of online criticism, she remains unbothered. "I be in the comments and will argue back…that’s what I be doing. It be funny to me…I make it into a joke."

From selling Kool-Aid and candy as a child to making her own lip gloss, Sexyy Red has always had an entrepreneurial spirit. "I used to make clothes, I used to do nails…I always liked money." Now, she's using her platform to invest in new ventures. "My team be teaching me how to invest. I’m getting a store, a sex store 'cause I always go to the sex stores...I’m gonna have the cute sh*t…they gonna F**k with me 'cause it’s Sexyy Red's store."

And when it comes to feeling sexy, she exudes confidence. "Anything I do is sexy. I be at home and I go stare at myself and say I’m sexy. I’m so cute, OMG…I always been sexy since 15. I remember when I seen I had a little booty on me. I said, yeah, it’s up." As for what she finds sexy in a man? "Confidence. Now that’s sexy. Being mean is not sexy."

For those who think she's just having a moment, she has a clear message: "This is forever."

Sexyy Red's journey is a testament to the power of authenticity and self-belief. Her story is one of resilience, defiance, and unwavering confidence—a true inspiration for anyone chasing their dreams.
