Her voice is really something else.
I'm still pissed that 'American Girl' never took off.

Bonnie did just finished a uStream chat. Here's everything we learned, courtesy of Drew from Pop Justice: I'm bummed that we're not getting an album anytime soon, but at least she's doing an EP.

^ That Hallelujah video is great but it has more autotune and melodyne than most Heidi Montag songs put together.

Like Skylar Grey before her, her singing career will amount to nothing.

Like Skylar Grey before her, her singing career will amount to nothing. I, too, have the same reservation about her solo career despite her fantastic singing voice. However, I do think she should at least try to land one major hook placement for herself to use as a launching pad.

Til this day, I'm so surprised that American Girl didn't take off. If Katy had released it, probably woulda been a worldwide smash.

She needs to work on her stage presence -- while she sounded fantastic, she looked as though she was wearing the clothes that Miley and Kesha rejected. Her set also was too calculated in terms of the jokes. And the song about wanting to call the guy? Possibly one of the worst songs I've ever heard.
I did get to meet her after and get a picture taken! Fun times.

American Girl sounded too dated and wasn't a strong song. It sounded like something that would have been demoed for TD, and then rejected for LFN.

Yeah I don't see anything actually happening for her solo career. I still listen to "Sleepwalker" though so I'm excited for the EP.

She's releasing a new single called "S.L.A.Y." soon.

AG used the same drum programming that was found on CG and LFN.

While disagreeing in the first place , also Katy was following a huge era and Bonnie was trying to break through . There's a big difference

That sounds like something Vitamin C would release. Awful.

She should have just pushed 'Sleepwalker' as a legit single last fall. It's a fantastic song, and it had an awesome video. I don't understand why she and her label (she has one, right?) slept on it.

AG used the same drum programming that was found on CG and LFN. ...and regardless, I think this is all part of the reason Bonnie isn't breaking through. If Bonnie recorded "Roar," would it have been a record breaking #1 hit? Doubtful. She can keep her best songs for herself and risk them flopping, or she can give them to Katy and get filthy rich off of them.

I'm pretty sure she has been dropped from Epic Records. She is no longer listed under their roster.

"Renegade pop artist", the new euphemism for getting dropped from your label for flopping.

'American Girl' was everything and it hurts my soul that renegade guerrilla industry soldier Bonnie McKee wasn't able to make it a hit. :'(
