First thought – Wow! This chick has a Voice! Second thought – Damn! This chick has a VOICE!
Sassy Singz starts off “Control” with a pounding – and I mean pounding – kick drum that holds the rhythm for this track and is guaranteed to rattle car parts right off all over the nation. Then she brings in this fantastic voice with a cool stutter effect in the opening lyrics that grab your head for a spin, right off!
Gal’s voice is Hot and that makes it perfect for the somewhat taboo subjects in “Control.” Somewhere between, enuendo and bold-face-type is a fine line and she straddles it perfectly. Good gosh a’mighty! She’s got control of this one, no matter how you mean it!
She really got my attention with this one so I thought we should get to know a bit more about her. When I got to her site (click the picture) I found the best Michael Brown inspired song I’ve heard yet in “Why.” Check it out and our fun interview after you watch the video.

– I have been singing professionally as SassySingz since 2010.I don’t watch MTV tell me about the On The Rise thing, what is that?
– MTV on the rise is for artists that MTV feels will be the next big thing. My music video control was submitted to them and I was chosen for this category.
You’re trying to get featured there, what does that involve? How is it going?
– I’m trying to get my music video on regular rotation but it all depends on votes from the MTV2ontherise.com site. So far I have made it level 2 with over 5k votes. I need 25k votes to get to the final level.
Where do you come from?
– I am born and raised in MIami, Florida.
What’s your favorite thing about Miami?
– Hmmm…never been asked that before lol. My favorite thing about Miami would probably be the beach. I love to sit in the sand and just meditate in the sun.
What would you change?
– There’s so much going in Miami…I honestly don’t know what I would change lol.
I love plain, regular chocolate ice cream, what’s your favorite flavor?
– LOL! Ice cream…I don’t eat it much but when I do I like plain vanilla. Maybe cookie and cream if I’m in the mood for some flavor.
Which musician inspired you to sing, first?
– The first musician to inspire me musically is Mary J. Blige. I’ve always loved Hip Hop and R&B but I didn’t know about the fusing the sound until I heard “All I need” by Method Man ft. Mary J. When i heard that in middle school, I was like, “YES! That’s what I wanna do if I ever get a chance to sing.”
If you could perform with One favorite musician, who would it be? Why?
– Oooohh….hard question but i’d have to say Missy Elliott. I OVER love her! She’s the one that influence my songwriting. I studied her intensely for years. I would love to perform and write a song with her.
What was the best thing your parents taught you when they didn’t realize they were teaching?
– Discipline. My mom passed away when I was four so I was raised by my father. He was SUPER strict lol. I hated it. Felt like I couldn’t live my own life but now that I’m older, I realize his structure and discipline helped mold me into the hard working and self motivated woman I have become.
What’s next for you in your musical journey?
– What’s next, is a promotional tour! My music is now on Pandora, iTunes Radio and Spotify. I’m getting FM radio play in some states and even overseas. So after all these years of building my brand and music catalogue, its time to hit the road and meet #TeamSassySingz I’m excited! Tour dates will be coming in the new year.
