How so? It is another empowering anthem with an uplifting message. 'Even when I'm at my worst, when I've been down so long it hurts, when I'm feeling ugly, know I gotta love me. Cause I'm, I'm still beautiful,' the siren declares. The release has me even more excited to hear the rest of the star-studded collection."
