<p>But, Brittny — who shares a child with reggae/dancehall artiste Christopher Martin — outlined that there are struggles associated with being a female act.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>“For an upcoming female artiste, it is even harder, as people tend to gravitate easier and more quickly to male artistes. I've now had to open up my life to the public in ways I never thought I could, and deal with a lot of criticism, be it negative positive or constructive,” she told <strong>BUZZ</strong>.</p>

<p>She said: “I’d like to be the female face of R&amp;B/Hip Hop for Jamaica, to put us on that platform, advocating clean, positive, timeless music that people can listen to for generations to come,  of course, incorporating aspects of my culture in it where I can.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>“Within Jamaica, I’d say I’m different from other female artists based on the brand/content I’m selling.&nbsp;Not only am I doing R&amp;B, but my music is more clean, serene and conscious than what we see now.”</p>
