As we emerge back into the golden age of pop girls, it’s important to know how to do it right. Specifically with the rise of fame from social media it's easy for stars, from that start, to be dismissed as simply influencers. Simply put there's no formula to follow, you just have to do it well, and you have to do it right. Nessa Barrett originally found her fame on the app Tik Tok through viral dance videos, but has since launched an extremely successful pop music career. Young women have always been one of the most powerful and influential fan groups, and if you can grab their precious attention, you made it. Nessa Barrett has done exactly that. Wednesday night at Nashville’s Marathon Music Works Nessa Barrett packed a room with some of the most stylish young “it girls” I’ve ever seen. While she may be small in stature, Nessa puts on a huge show. Literally every single lyric was sung back to her at a deafening volume.
Her show consisted of a perfect mix of mellow jams and upbeat driving songs that had the entire room singing at the top of their lungs. The young crowd clung to each other with excitement and screamed at Nessa’s every move. Exploring concepts of love, heartbreak, and what it means to become a woman in the public eye, Nessa is a figure that a lot of young women look to for guidance and aspiration. It was obvious that she possesses a very tight personal relationship with her fan base, which is probably why they seem to be so loyal in return.
Nessa Barrett is currently on a world tour where she will be stopping at almost every major city. She has established a name in the pop scene as a force to be reckoned with, and never forgotten. Whether you know her name or not, sooner or later everyone will know the name Nessa Barrett.
