I agree with what everyone else has said here, her voice is all over the place. Having said that, Someone To Believe and Hit The Ground Running are nice!

In parts of 'Someone To Believe' her voice is GORGEOUS! :o

She just needs some serious training and her voice will be DA ONE!!

Great EP! Hit The Ground Runnin' could be a hit!

why? there are no hard feelings between them lol, the most logical subject would be either Robin or Interscope.

No
But Melody was the only doll that supported Nicole during Dancing With The Stars, and they had also a dinner together last year in the UK, I mean if you dislike eachother you also not gonna support or dine together lol, they are not bff's but they respect eachother.

It's called good PR :lol:

Honestly, I still reckon she has potential. All she needs is to find an experienced vocal producer and someone who can guide her in the right direction.

This is really surprisingly good. She still needs to work controlling her vocals. It sounds like she tries to hard to make the statement of " I got a great Voice" when she doesn't have to. Maybe this is just her singing style I guess :x . Nevertheless I was shocked with how good this was.

Its probably cos she feels she has alot to prove with her vocals, being kept in the shadows so long.
I'm sure her album will be much more polished though.

I just love the mixtape. As some people point out, a bit more vocal control could do some wonders. But she got it. I really really like it. Will she release a studio album anytime this year? Or isn't there really a date set? I'm looking forward to it.

Smoking Gun is such an amazing song, but it's way too short.

her video for Lipstick and Guilt was also short, so maybe she choose this song because it's already short, so also easy to shoot a cheap but effective video for!
