Sexyy Red‘s single “Get It Sexyy” was certified Gold by the RIAA Wednesday. While celebrating the accomplishment, the rapper shared that it came at a time in which she was feeling a bit down in the dumps.
“The night get it sexyy was made I was goin thru a lot just had my baby felt depressed and was goin thru postpartum,” she wrote on social media. “My team in Miami would leave me in the studio to write songs & I would just b in there crying thinkin about life.”
After returning to St. Louis, Sexyy went to the studio and surrounded herself with loved ones — and “Get It Sexyy” was born.
