Watch: Jazmine Sullivan- Bust Your Windows

Jazmine Sullivan has a new video for her song “Bust Your Windows”. Can you say ladies anthem? lol. Jazmine’s voice is absolutely incredible…a song like this could easily be trite and corny, but she has such a powerful voice that the emotion and heartache shines through. In strictly dramatic terms, I think she could’ve taken it a [...]
