Sevyn Streeter Feat. Chris Brown, & A$AP Ferg [2021] - Guilty [Groundwērk/eOne]

I was going to post "Guilty" yesterday from a couple of tracks pre-released from a forthcoming album "Drunken Wordz Sober Thoughtz" by Sevyn Streeter (due 17 Sep 2021) but then discovered that it was released as a single in Feb. I then realised that this is a different 'Clean' version not the previous 'Explicit' version which may be more radio friendly!

She has actually gone with the other track "Nasty Girl" as the new single which is too R&B oriented for here.

Amber Denise Streeter was a member of a couple of girl groups (TG4 (Tomgirls Forever) and RichGirl) before she released her debut solo single "I Like It" in 2012. Her new album will be her fourth to date.
