Bleakz shared that the average upcoming female artist would find it hard to get the support of an established female artist. She noted that the females do not show love like the male artists do.

While sharing her thoughts, she said she would easily ask a “Bella Shmurda” to jump on a song with her rather than her fellow female artists.
She noted that male folk are more accessible than females. The singer stated that male artists can boastfully say the names of others who have helped them up the success ladder, but it is not the same for females.
