A message from Larry’s friend on Tuesday morning
In 2023, Larry was profiled by the Dallas Observer. She told the website about her beginnings in music in church choir and her time as a cheerleader in high school. After graduating, she worked as a hair and nail technician before moving into hip-hop.
“I feel like music was always something that came easy to me. I always had a musical bent. It was something that I probably had to put more time and effort into because it was natural, you know, rather than me trying to force a talent,” she said.
At the time, Larry was working with producer J White, who previously made hits for Cardi B, Megan Thee Stallion and Gucci Mane.
Larry also spoke about her love for the growing number of female artists in the hip-hop world.
“It’s looking promising that more and more women are just continuing to explode. I feel like it used to be a male-dominated sport, but now it’s more female-dominated. I think that’s great for the girls,” she said.
