It's not a matter on whether she delivers her verses well or not. As I mentioned before I don't care if ppl think she is amazing at rapping or w/e. My comment was mostly taking aim at the fact that for some ppl the entire delivery and look or vibe is off. That has absolutely everything to do with our view on Asian women. Name one Asian woman in music who has not been put under hard scrutiny for being too "fake" when she is being tough or too "cringe" when she is being assertive . It's nice that you mentioned the good sis Huyana because she also gets that critic ALL the time.
Point is we can have an Asian female rapper rap just as well as the big wigs and she'd still be shot down, scrutinized and hyper analyzed for being un authentic, fake, cringe, off, weird, odd etc...and we can have a cute, sweet, sexy (but in a non threatening way) Asian singer but the minute she gets tough or acts assertive she will face similar critics as mentioned before because being an Asian woman and presenting yourself other then what is expected will always be seen as "non authentic".
