Divided Rebecca Black stands…
The 19-year-old half-Mexican American singer, who rose to acclaim with her YouTube hit single “Friday,” has returned with a new single called “The Great Divide,” as well as a music video for the track premiering exclusively with Billboard.
Black rose to internet stardom in 2011 with her song “Friday” which has logged more than 99 million views on YouTube, said she spent a month working on the new video, wanting to get it perfect for her haters.
In a teary-eyed intro, she said, “I just wanted to prove everyone wrong, but now that it’s here I have that within myself and I don’t need that anymore. I think what I’m also most excited about for is there are some of you I’ve seen stick with me for four or five years now and you’ve always been so excited and so patient with me, so before the music video starts I wanted to say thank you to you guys.”
