Radio/TV personality Jazmyn Summers caught up with the diminutive rapper.

“I feel it’s lover girl season,” Brooke shared. “It’s getting cold and you gonna need somebody to find and cuddle with. It was only right that I hit up Jeremi to come outside. We have to cuff up. The holidays is coming and we gonna want some good gifts,” she joked.

Brooke revealed she’s currently single but warned against sliding up in her DMs, “ You will be ignored. If you’re interested, come correct. Come with respect.”

Brooke, who proudly represents Brooklyn, told the crowd she was a “shelter kid.”

“When I was in the shelter with my mom, I was a baby” she shared with Radio One. “ I don’t remember too much of the experience but the pictures that she has I can still feel it. I can feel that my mom went through a lotta of struggles to get where we are right now. What I would say to kids in the shelter is don’t give up. It may be hard but you can win. Grow and don’t be afraid to grow.”
