Canadian singer/songwriter Alessia Cara has been on the radar since she released her debut single Here, but it wasn’t until she recently did her own stripped-back, acoustic rendition of Tay Tay’s #1 hit Bad Blood that she got everyone talking.

The fact that Alessia has managed to bring a bag full of new textures and rich emotions into the song deserves attention and  mad love, while her craft deserves mad props…her take on Kendrick Lamar’s verses alone is something to behold. #checkitout
