Sexyy Red has confirmed a viral clip that appeared to be of the “Get It Sexyy” rapper fighting in high school is indeed her.

Earlier this month, Sexyy Red shocked her fans when she shared a throwback photo of herself before the fame.

One user commented on a post from Our Generation Music: “Shawty was fine!”

Another added: “She was fs a problem at school.” A third wrote: “She definitely was the biggest bop in her school.”

Others, though, were less kind. A commenter said: “She looked better wtf.” Another added: “She dead was fire wtf happen.”

Things haven’t always been smooth sailing for the St. Louis star. Before she became the sensation that she is today, Tay Keith previously got dragged for working with her.

In an interview with Billboard published last month, the Memphis beatmaker reflected on the initial skepticism he dealt with from others when he first partnered up with the rapper.

“People were trolling the s–t [shit] out of me,” the “Pound Town” producer said. “They were real-deal trolling me. It wasn’t much good feedback. It was coming from even people around me, ‘What you doing?’ I saw the potential. That’s as simple as it was, me believing in her.”

He also elaborated on his intuition about “Get It Sexyy” being a hit, adding:  “When I finished the beat, I’m telling Sexyy, ‘This the one. This the hit.’ I’m telling her team. I’m just knowing when I made it right there I’m like, ‘This is the hit.’”

The producer also discussed his working relationship with Sexyy on the heels of the said song becoming a blockbuster.

“That whole situation is so crazy,” he continued. “We had did it in the last week of February or [the] beginning of March. I made the beat and we did the record that week. She did the snippet and it kinda caught on. So when she released the song, it took its course. It was a spontaneous song we had created.

“We was in Miami and had just left from Memphis. I flew to go work with her. I’m like, ‘We gotta get another big record.’ When I had started on the beat, I had my producer send me some chops. We chopped it and I heard it and I’m like, ‘I know exactly what I had to do with it.’ I made the beat from the sample chop.”
