RE: Listen Up! 2013 perspective
Jessica can look absolutely stunning at times. But 17 year old girl stunning.
I actually can't wait to see her get older, because I think her voice will grow a bit too. For the most part, she has this very fierce powerful voice. "Sweet Dreams" is one of my all time favorite studio covers. But sometimes she can sound a little squeaky/little kiddish. And I think a lot of that is because her voice isn't fully developed.
On the other side, I'm also going to be interested in looking at the writing credits from DeAndre's album, whenever that drops. From the looks of things, he seems to be getting at least some of his songs from ole (I think his manager/head of the record company has some connection with them). And I'd really like to see Haley as a writer. I think it would be good for her to get some of her songs on other people's records too.
I'm very interested in seeing how things work out for DeAndre. He's signed to an Indy lable. On the one hand, I'm always skeptical of those types of labels, because I don't see them as to stable.
On the other hand, DeAndre's manager (who is also heading the record label) is SO enthusiastic about DeAndre. He's always promoting him on twitter. He's booked DeAndre for Summerfest. He had some pretty big names working on DeAndre's music video. (He's also well connected.) And from what he's said to some fans, they're really looking at slowly developing DeAndre for the long hall. Now there's no saying how this plays out. But as a fan..I can't help but feel enthusiastic about it.
And perhaps more importantly, as an even bigger Haley fan..I can't help but wonder if a situation like the above would actually be better for her, rather than being with a major label.
