People should stoop glorifying singers only. This song was written by a team of 3-6 people, then produced in way that made it catchy. Then they’ve promoted it so it reaches the audience. Tate is a gem, but there are so many people behind the artists!

[clarissajoycelyn]

tates vocals are unreal i cant belive how far shes coming since 'one day' so so proud she can make global #1 song on spotify

[anastasiaa.]

Dear Tate please, girls reaaally need more songs like this! This energy and this type of confidence are just smth stunning

[KrystalKBeauty]

I love her voice so much! And her dancing? NEXT LEVEL

[Benjaminnook]

Some of these comments are really awkward and uncomfortable to read, Tate is one of the few people in this industry that contributes to healthy relationships within her workplace. Everyone knows a song has a team behind it, she’s the face of that team she’s the performer and she also writes her own songs, Tate literally rose to her fame because she wrote, and played her own songs in her literal bedroom not to mention she’d also a dancer, she delivers both ends of a performance. I’d stick to commenting this under the actual top “ artists that buy songs from writers and are 0 percent involved and invested in the creative process, Tate has always credited her team verbally and on paper and she gushes all the time how she loves and adores creating music with her team and by herself. Commenting negative stuff on her to try to highlight “ writers “ is really weird when she is one of the few that gives them credit all the time.
