“It reminds me [of], like, when I was 16 in the Bronx running up and down the block.”
Most millennials will recognize the singer’s lyrics in her hit 2002 song Jenny From The Block, dedicated to her life growing up in the Bronx, a neighborhood of the Big Apple that was once considered a rougher area of the city.
While looking at her reflection, in a seemingly serious state of mind, Jennifer continued: “Crazy little girl who used to be f–kin wild.
“No limits. All dreams and s–t.”
