Some people have been comparing Mel B's new single to Alex...? It's called Once in my Life

I quite like the song, its decent... But I think it's clear it's not Alex. :|
True. But at 1:57 it reminded me of Alex when's she has heavy makeup on but that's only cause I'm a stan. And the dance scene reminded me of BB video. The outfit in that scene too. The GP would have no idea about that.

I think Alex kept the RnB music she had scrapped for a HoH... We probably hear the RICO love tracks.

I didn't even expect her to have finished 20% of it to be quite honest!

"I've been recording this album since 2010"...aka, she's got back the unreleased album and will use some of those tracks...

So hopefully the Rico tracks, and the stuff with Stargate, RedOne and Sandy Vee make it. It seems so weird for her to say that considering Heartbreak on Hold, just proves that I don't think she really wanted HOH tbh. But she still gave it her all.

Who knows what kind of material she has saved up from those earlier sessions for the other album, if she goes back in the studio and updates them it could be hot. Obviously she may have lost some of the songs though, just Don't Wake Me Up etc...but still, positive news, and exciting that she is getting ready to finalise it.

I think late-January/February would be a good time to premiere the first single and then get straight out there in the US. That's an ideal situation, but we'll just have to wait and see I guess.

She has loads of material to use. Even her Overcome demos can be used.

I'm happy we're getting more music fairly soon though. Hopefully there's no more long waits like Overcome > HOH and HOH > #NewRules.

Maybe Alex is gonna complete the album then present it to a label. A label would be majorly impressed with Alex's credentials. Managing to have a huge jaggernaut of a management company behind her, Rico love, Vinzyl, and other productions in her pocket... This is all very promising. I just want one more thing. Alex w/MikeWiLLMadeIt. A hot production by him for single one would make Alex blow in a HUGE way in America

So did Alex pre-record her performance on GLO X Factor then?

It says on their website that she will be doing a live twitter chat at 6pm (GMT +1) today. The final is due to air today, so I guess she did pre-record it. Explains why there haven't been any videos yet. I thought it aired in the middle of the week like the US version...

Alexandra Burke in her big plan for the show and the Nigerian and Ghanaian fan base, she will be releasing a hit single titled “Thank You” for her numerous fans’
Confused at this, is she releasing a new song? Or am I just totally getting the wrong idea.

Hallelujah was featured on Xfactor Usa.

And I'm surprised a lot of americans know Alex, and they're praising her on twitter. lol

I think Alex needs to promote the hell outta the US...

The Silence could well I think, with a new video though. Because her live performance on X Factor slayed.

She SHOULD start promoting now, Bad boys, ANL, Hallelujah, The Silence & Broken Heels...

All her old material is good enough to gain a fanbase until third album.

What I think she needs to do is start touring the radio stations/talk shows, anywhere where she can talk and show her face across the different states....

She needs to mention the Beyoncé duet as well, and ideally have some kind of single she can perform to show off her vocals. If she gets the urban/AC market on side as well as the pop, she has a chance for higher physical sales and a more loyal fanbase.

Nice to see she's getting these small deals while shes recording.

Mune energy drinks and now Funkin Cocktails. They aren't huge deals, but they'll definitely pay.

Glad that we're getting songs from 2010, that's exciting. Glad Syco let her keep them.

This album could be a lot more epic than we expected.

Now she needs a decent label to release it!
