    if u felt Rich Brian & Niki said 'like' a lot, it probably came from their Jakarta-Accented Bahasa, Jakarta Accent do use 'like' a lot both in Bahasa and English, that's the reason they talk 'i'm like' 'like literally' 'i feels like' 'like' 'like' lmfao

    I've never listened to NIKI before this video, so I was really curious to know how much different she would sound once she started singing. I thought this was gonna be one of those iconic genius flops but SHE SOUNDS LIKE AN ABSOLUTE ANGEL!
