Her single Hit Em with the quotable hook “Say they, coming through to the south, so baby what it do with that mouth.” Young Niyah stamps her household name as “Princess of the South.”Nonetheless, the line “what it do with that mouth” isn’t referring to anything sexual. The Atlanta-bred adolescent elaborates on the hook’s meaning of haters always having something to say. Prematurely, being in the music scene since exiting the womb, Young Niyah has participated in acting classes and has also been involved in writing & music production. Much of her inspiration comes from her mother which she closely resembles (however they both beg to differ) and she also mentions Lauren Hill as an artist she listened to in her younger years. We asked Miss. Scott about allowing her daughter to tour by herself as an adult and she is at the least of worries. Young Niyah’s focus is her pen & her pad. We won’t expect her to wild out like a lot of young adults who grew up in the music industry. She’ll be “hitting” all her haters but she won’t be “hitting” anybody back in the DMs…HA!
