20-year-old singer/songwriter, Meghan Trainor, will be releasing her debut album this fall, via Epic records. Her single, "All About That Bass," is currently #1 on iTunes, #4 on the Hot 100, and has 14 million views on YouTube.
I think she might be just what Epic records needs right now. L.A. Reid has done a dismal job over there since he became CEO. But I could see them pushing for her to be the next big pop star.
She's also been performing a song called "Dear Future Husband," which could be a hit, especially coming off the heels of "All About That Bass."

She seems like a very funny person! Anyways, the song is annoying, but it's growing on me so much I actually like it now?

Hope she's careful; that doo wop novelty is going to wear out quickly.

I'd like to see if she can do anything other than the retro schtick. That said, I like all 4 songs on the EP.

Up to #16 on iTunes. I thought this would've cracked the lower half of the top-10 easily.

Her label sucks. She's the hottest act on epic right now and they do nothing to promote her release. The EP should have been prices differently and promoted on iTunes or at least a YouTube ad on the AATB video telling you it's out

$4.99 for four songs would've been fair although $5.16 isn't that much of a difference.

They released the EP on CD as well, which makes her low debut even more shocking to me. I would think at least closer to 20k.

Projected to debut with 9-11k. those predictions were made before it hit the top 10 on itunes . it has since peaked at #4 where it is holding now . hopefully the final numbers are a bit higher.

TOP20 debut for an EP that got barely any promo is not bad at all... I'm rooting for this girl.

I had no idea she even had an EP out until I read this thread. Her label is doing HORRIBLE promo.
