SPOTLIGHT
Becky G
(www.iambeckyg.com; @itsBeckyGomez): This talented female hip-hop artist from right here in L.A., who pays homage to Queen Latifah, Kanye West, Jay-Z, and Nicki Minaj on her newest mixtape, could be on her way to giving some of the best a run for their money. Becky’s mixtape, Teen in the City, will be released before the end of the year, and she also has plans for a live and TV fashion show. Check out her version of Eminem and Bruno Mars’ “Lighters” here. Not only can she rap, she also has a strong singing voice as well. Is Becky G the star in the making? Let us know what you think. By the way, she’s also only 14.
