Things We Like: Jhene Aiko “3:16 AM” (Video)
Posted by Miss Info under about miss info , for fashion-hounds and obsessive consumers , life beyond rap , new music , things I like[9] Comments
Despite similar exotic looks and slim frame, she’s not Cassie, she’s not Ameriie. This is Japanese-Afro-Latin-Native-American (phew) singer Jhene Aiko. Our girl Gabz has been raving about her for a while, and now Jhene has dropped a new video for the song “3:16 AM” which shows off her pretty waifish looks and her equally airy voice. How would you describe her sound? I like this song and she definitely seems to have successfully distanced herself from the B2K cameos from her past life.
I’m definitely looking forward to hearing what Jhene and No I.D. cook up in the studio for her upcoming Def Jam debut, Soul(ed) Out.
Watch Jhene Aiko’s “3:16 AM” video…

I love the work I’ve seen and heard from her thus far. Hopping it makes it into the mainstream.

hmm, I’m not sure actually. I just know she’s signed to No ID via Def Jam, and she’s working in the studio with him. I dont think she’s TDE. But that would be a cool combo

Yea that would be…I know that she said, in the past, that if she didn’t sign with TDE that she would still continue to work with them…I know she’s been on songs with all of them (except maybe Jay Rock) and she’s sounds good on Ab-Soul’s Terrorists Threats with Danny Brown
