During her recent appearance on This Past Weekend w/ Theo Von, Sexyy Red opened up about her childhood. She described growing up with a single mom, who always worked hard to take of her family. The hitmaker recalled looking forward to growing up and making money to take care of her mom in return, revealing that amid her success, she’s finally been able to do so.
“She used to be at work all day,” the 25-year-old says of her mother. “All she wore was scrubs and Crocs, every day all day. I used to be like, ‘man, I can’t wait to get some money. I’ma buy my mama some new clothes, I’ma do this.’ Cuz I just hated seeing her wear the same clothes every day. And I know she didn’t really have it. Like, she would spend her last on us but still be wearing the same scrubs.”
