Rare these days that I come across a singer/songwriter that TOTALLY blows me away. This woman is incredibly talented!
Love it. I think she has it figured out…much quicker than most of us have it “figured out.”
Beautiful words at the introduction and a magical performance, thanks.
She's really talented, love her music 🎵
.. and this song broke my heart.. i have watched to many of my favorite artists lost to young, to fast, to much like forever without love and song... thank you ms Joy ... never leave this old man kiddo... and u know that here in Hawaii u will have a place whenever you need to find calm, peace and quiet... i promise u forever the safety of the jungle...
I loved everything she did here. She’s a great lyricist, nice voice and nice music, and she’s cute too (never hurts).
Hi ACL TV please post Joy doing "smells like teen spirit" at your venue, i saw it on PBS TV a week ago, it's amazing, keep up the great work you all do there , Peace !
Talented and impressive. Keep going I would love to collaborate one day. ✌️ and Love
iHear & iFeel you! All of this 💚
"How do I become the black Bruce Springsteen." -Joy
Love this 😍✌💪🙏💕
It lost me. I don't see why race has to be a factor in all aspects of life.
@@sicituradastra9216 actually TOTALLY with you. I just think she's saying she wants to live to be a good number of healthy years like him. It made me laugh but yeah, agree it does get overplayed.
@@erinlynn7536 the fact that being black was brought up at all. Just made me lose interest. I want to see what you have to offer in talent. I'm not concerned about identity politics. When that stuff comes into play, I immediately become dismissive.
Also, thanks for being civil.
@@sicituradastra9216 civil discourse is a lost art! But not on me :))) And yes, she truly is talented AF & needs no mention of race. Good point.
@@sicituradastra9216, my goodness! She made one remark in her intro about wanting a career as long as Bruce Springsteen's, and you "immediately become dismissive." If some up-and-coming male country star said he aspired to have a career as long and successful as Dolly Parton's, would you dismiss it as "identity politics"?
I am not familiar with Oladokun's work--yet--but I would hope that she does in some of her lyrics address the fact that racism does continue to exist in this country and may well have a profound impact in her life.
🌟A Trailblazer🚀taking-off!

Very Nice
She’s gonna get plucked by someone, to move up in visibility…she should be..there’s a lot in there…quite a beautiful pkg of artistic talent
