Yea. It'll be interesting to see the way in which she goes. My gut says she's going to have a managing/marketing deal with Scooter/Usher, and they'll likely allow her to either be independent completely or have a distribution deal (Like Macklemore & Ryan Lewis.) with a major label (Lol..Scooter/Usher's..).

Usher seems to be very invested in her, but I have a hard time believing he's going to help her to the extent he could without getting anything in return. That's just not how the industry works.

She's also either not good at the social media thing at all...or really good. She puts different information in different places. It's either because she doesn't know the best way to promote or because she only wants her more crazy fans to figure it out because legal things aren't completely settled yet. (And I have a feeling it's the second, as she alludes too it in her post.)

Anyway, she had a little facebook update.

Hey guys - hope this post finds you well. It's been a while since I wrote on Facebook and I've been wanting to say hello. I think about you often and am so glad for your visits.

Today, I spent most of the day working on a new track. Sometimes I wish I could finish a piece, put in out there immediately, and hear your feedback. But as of now, I'm still learning my craft and very much needing to take time in order to make sure the songs are right.

That said, as I lay the groundwork for the future, I am planning to release more music than the traditional industry infrastructure has been known to allow. I'm not sure how it will pan out, but sometimes you have to take risks and follow your heart/gut. The music I'm making is somewhat experimental in nature, and means a great deal to me. I'm very excited to share it.

I'll be posting some snippets from the album in the coming weeks! Wishing you all a fantastic night : )

Regardless, she's coming across as very excited. She's not trying to go the typical path of contestants, so I think it will be an interesting journey to follow, anyway.
