Pretty Nigerian lady with a voice like Cardi B remakes the singer's WAP song
Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that a pretty lady with a voice like Cardi B had done a gospel remake of the rapper's WAP song.
Fanny not only did a gospel version of the song, but rapped like the American rapper. She went on to do a video shoot in which she performed the remade version of the song.
In the video shoot she shared on Instagram, netizens noted that she seemed to have a striking voice like Cardi B. Another interesting thing people noted in her remake of the song was that it lacked any sexual-positive message like the criticised original version.
