I just heard her track named Unmade Love in youtube, I never knew her voice could be soft enough to cross-over to pop.

Does anyone else agrees she can cross-over to pop radio? Her voice is soft enough to do it.

I think she could, but I doubt she will.

She should, just so she can get a broader audience.

I really hope she is successful. I think she is great but I do fear what will happen. It would be such a shame to lose such a great voice.

Here is a link to Melinda at the EW.com studio. She says that she wants to make an album where the old school meets the new school. She would like the album to have some funk, blues, and soul music on it. The write-up says she sings Amazing Grace but it cut off right when she was about to start singing. I guess they will be showing her singing that next week? Or whenever they put up a new idolatry video. www.ew.com/ew/package/0,,20007164_20013312,00.html

I seriously doubt she'll cross over to pop. But she'll do great at urban AC and could even do well at urban, ac, and even hot ac maybe.

Cross-over will depend on material and the label. IMO

If I remember correctly Melinda didn't say she couldn't do it on the tour. She said that she wasn't doing it on the tour. I believe Regis asked her if she was singing it on the tour and she said she wasn't. Melinda didn't record I believe In You and Me. She did record I'm a Woman. It's up on Youtube. All of her studio recordings are up on youtube. I think they probably record them all, but they only put one on sale Will they ever release any of her AI tracks to Itunes???

You're welcome, crashed. I've got another one for you. Melinda did a interview with a Seattle radio station. She mentions the duets she is doing on the tour. She also talks about the rumor of her and Chris R. dating. She mentions that she is waiting to see if 19E is going to sign her. www.kiss1061.com/pages/83914.php

Here is another radio interview. This time it's from a San Diego station. jeffandjer.star941sandiego.com/cc-common/podcast.htmlI don't know when we will find out if 19e is going to pick up their option to sign her. I'm just really surprised that there hasn't been any announcements about Jordin and Blake's signings. This time last year both Taylor and Katherine's announcements had come out.

Let's hope Melinda gets signed by a major record label. She will be big.

Great news! I see she has about a dozen songs available, between the EP and singles. I'll be buying a bunch of them tonight. Thanks for the heads up!

Her EP is #93 on iTunes! =D So far, only Jordin, Blake, & Melinda have been able to make it on the iTunes Top 100 albums.
