Bay Area rapper Kreayshawn pays her haters no mind. The 22-year-old rose to prominence last May possibly when the video for her swagged-out ode to anti-materialism, “Gucci Gucci,” went viral, logging almost 35 million YouTube views – and a lot more than 33,000 “dislikes” – to date. With her Columbia Records debut Somethin‘ Bout Kreay now slated for a summer release, Kreayshawn says she could not care less if men and women dismiss it.
“I assume there are individuals who are just waiting to hate. This could be the greatest album in the world and they’ll hate it anyway,” Kreayshawn, born Natassia Gail Zolot, tells Rolling Stone. “I’m not truly concerned with making an attempt to turn haters into believers. I just believe it’s going to be a exciting-ass album for my supporters that I have now, and for people who have only heard one song.”
Kreayshawn enlisted producers Diplo, Boys Noize, DJ Two Stacks and Jean Baptiste to broaden her hyphy-leaning sound. “A single song will be like, super hip-hop, and one particular song will be like Bay Region hyphy music, and yet another will be like Chicago house juke music and one will be New Orleans insane booty-bounce music. And 1 will be a crazy, witch-residence-sounding track,” says Kreayshawn. The LP also attributes guest appearances from 2 Chainz, Kid Cudi, Sissy Nobby, DB tha Basic, Chippy Nonstop and V-Nasty.
Album cut “Twerkin’” features a hook from the track’s producer Diplo, who Kreayshawn says inspired her to pursue her film career (she’s directed video clips for Soulja Boy Tell’em and Lil B). “When I expand up, I want to be like Diplo, for sure,” she says. For the Kid Cudi-assisted “Like It or Love It,” she says the pair drew from punk’s influence. “We were in the studio and we sort of created a new song with a entire new genre … [Cudi] truly played some guitar on the song and we produced a break there with instruments,” Kreayshawn says. “The song is just like, punk. If you like it, then do it. Do what ever you want if it can make you content.”
Considering that inking a rumored $ one million deal with Columbia in June 2011, Kreayshawn has laid fairly low, appearing as a featured guest on tracks by 2 Chainz and Juicy J and creating up her overall performance chops with a headlining slot on last year’s Noisey school tour. In the meantime, other white female rappers have penetrated the game like Iggy Azalea and Kitty Pryde, whose “Okay Cupid” video has drawn comparisons to Kreayshawn for her aloof delivery and teen appeal.
