If it’s based off the pure definition, she’s a two-hit wonder: FS peaked at #6 and SBY peaked at #37 on the Hot 100.

Fight Sing was a top 10 hit and pop radio smash and was the theme song of a presidential campaign.
Stand By You barely scraped top 40 on the hot 100 and really only posted big numbers on AC.

I still keep coming back to this album. Wish something had caught fire off it. Broken glass, collide, and shivers are all bops

I was sure Fight Song would get a Grammy nomination. It seemed to me like it was a really big song.

I kinda wish she had done “Shivers” and announced it was her official second single!

Rachel Platten made a hilarious cameo on Samantha Bee last week with Fight Song. I have been listening to Waves like crazy. It's so good.

Aly Raisman, Yara Shahidi, and Rachel Platten Join Iskra Lawrence as #AerieREAL Role ModelsSince announcing they'd become a photoshop-free brand in 2014, Aerie has been on the forefront of fashion's conversation around body positivity and women's empowerment. From recruiting non-models to pose in ad campaigns to expanding their nude lingerie offerings, Aerie has become a beacon of what brands can do when they let go of archaic notions of style and beauty. Today, Aerie takes their activism one step forward by expanding its #AerieREAL Role Model family with the introduction of three new Role Models. Gold medal gymnast and women's rights activist Aly Raisman, actress Yara Shahidi, and multi-platinum and award-winning singer-songwriter Rachel Platten join Iskra Lawrence, a leading body-positivity activist and the first Aerie Role Model, in the upcoming spring campaign. “Yara, Aly, Rachel, and Iskra truly embody AerieREAL and what it means to be strong, confident, and happy in your own skin,” Jennifer Foyle, Aerie Global Brand President, said in a statement. “At Aerie, we believe in authentic, real beauty and never airbrush our models. Now, more than ever, we want to encourage women everywhere to feel empowered to embrace their own unique qualities and beautiful real selves.”

I was super underwhelmed by this album the one time I listened to it near its release (as I was by her debut album every single time I tried listening to it), but I revisited Waves this weekend, and this album is really good. It's a shame nothing caught on from it because there are several excellent tracks here. I wonder if part of it is ageism because I could imagine some of these songs being smashes if recorded by a younger artist.
Favs: "Perfect for You" "Whole Heart" "Collide" "Shivers"

I still think this album is one of the best of 2017 and deserved so much better

Ummm Bitch betta WORK!
What?!! Rachel has a new single out, featured on EDM group Tritonal’s new song “Little Bit of Love”.
Her voice sounds so good! This is exactly the type of feature she needed to reintroduce her to a new group and garner a little bit of respect.
Wow! It’s catchy and she really sounds beautiful on the high notes in the last chorus. Shaken to my core!!!

No longer in Columbia’s roster (need to me) so I assume this will be an indie release.
