A Dutch singer who turned a viral cover into a pop career, anchored by the teenage anthem "Eighteen Years Old."
For a quick sense of her sound, start with "Eighteen Years Old" and maybe "Outta Here." They frame that early, straightforward pop moment pretty well.
Her 2006 cover of Justin Timberlake's "Cry Me a River" got her noticed online, and Timbaland produced her debut single "Outta Here." That led to "Eighteen Years Old," a song about teenage life that stuck around. She's kept recording pop and R&B solo since, with songs like "Because Of You" in her catalog.
She started with that Timberlake cover circulating online in 2006. Timbaland got involved, and she put out "Outta Here" in 2009, then the album of the same name. Later albums included "Pure" in 2010 and "Forever Now" in 2016.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
