~upd~: Blackberry Song By Aleise

King discovered her gift for music quite organically at the tender age of 10 during a family barbecue, where she naturally joined her aunts and cousins in song. Despite growing up as a self-described tomboy with nine brothers, she honed her craft in high school choirs and church services, eventually landing a spot with the HTS Band in Detroit. Her rise in the local circuit is marked by significant accolades, including winning "Best R&B Female Artist of the Year" at the 2015 Detroit Black Music Awards and "Best Local Artist" at the 2016 Best in Black Awards. She has shared stages with legends like George Clinton, Bobby Brown, Kelly Price, and even sang the national anthem for the Detroit Tigers.

The chorus is where the raw emotion breaks through. Aleise sings, "Give me attention like you give your blackberry". This line is the thesis of the song. The singer is not necessarily jealous of the device, but jealous of the attention and priority the device is given. The request to be "touched" and to have "their buttons pushed" is a masterful, suggestive metaphor for physical affection and intimacy, implying that while the device gives the owner connectivity, the singer craves genuine, human interaction. blackberry song by aleise
