Alli Simpson

She stepped into the world of entertainment motivated by her brother, Cody Simpson’s rise to stardom.

Gradually her YouTube channel ‘SoAlli’ that she launched on November 11, 2009, started getting attention and with time accumulated more than 60 million views and around half a million subscribers. She came up with four singles released through her own label ‘So Alli Records’. Of these some made way to the Billboard charts. All the four songs thrived in winning millions of views on YouTube. These include ‘Wish U Were Here’ (July 14, 2012) with over 4.2 million views, ‘Why I'm Single (June 10, 2013) with more than 10 million views, ‘Notice Me’ (November 18, 2013) with over 21 million views and ‘Roll 'em Up (feat.
