She'd love to work with others to, but in her label days she wasn't allowed. I remember she couldn't do a duet with Trey Songz because it would have to be r&b and Syco wouldn't allow it.
Pathetic!!! At Alex not being able to collab with trey

And I said this days ago about azealia and the idea got dismissed hopefully it's true

Well Azelia is releasing her music as Azelia Banks Records.. And now she came to Alex to see The Bodyguard.
Either way Alex is lunching her own label with KWL (as we already thought) or maybe Alex will work with Azelia? Well.. It's a possability!

I'm here for a Azealia Banks X Alexandra Burke collaboration! Azealia is still getting a lot of publicity so it'd be a good move.

Also that instagram photo of Alex and that guy Manny (who?) is absolutely stunning! Best she's looked in my opinion. Argh she needs music!!

I think it would be a bit of a pointless duet. Two very different artists and there is no reason why Azealia would work with Alex...would be of no benefit to her career. Just seems a bit pointless.

Maybe they'd do it because they sound good together musically?

Well I always thought that Alex needs a strong girl duet... For example... When I've heard HOH for the first time, I knew that she needs a feature on it with a strong girl vocal... Alex has this woman power, even when she's dancing with her girls (dancers)..
So a duet with girl rapper? Fire! (for me..)

Looks like she started using her ABOfficial account again, so I think there must be something going on, she really is getting ready for this new album, isn't she?

Alex doesn't have a full on 'sound' as of yet. That's the issue.

But we don't know what sort of artist Alex is or even what her sound is. Jumping and dueting with someone just becsuse they're a big name is ridiculous in my opinion. She needs to find her sound. Also, Azealia has most likely peaked in my opinion...the novelty has worn off.

She hasn't got any of those.. She's a Singer, Dancer and Entertainer but not a Songwriter/Musician.

No bad thing in my opinion as the opportunities for a long and lucrative career lie in those attributes.

I'm not only interested in Alex now but also when she is 30,40 50 yo.

We all get there and if you have a skill set it stands you in good stead.

Let's hope alexandra (if involved in a new label) is under a professional umbrella I hope it's a Kevin liles imprint if it's a new label movement. It's ibvuous that the photographer who follows Alex to NY and travelling is the one filming all of this "thedirector_e". Still glad Alex is under KWL though.

Sidenote: why is Jrevel still Alex's choreographer!? We need Jaquel knight for single 1 for america if it's that kind of track.

Jessie J is clever getting two big names to feature on her record, after I heard the record I wasn't pleased it's mostly her shouting. But it looks like it'll be a bigger hit on radio than Ariana's Problem.

Alex needs to start using her contacts tbh

Mess. And she basically said that Manda girl encouraged her to do it. Wtf.

I don't know what happened, but this issue ended last year, she should have just shut down the question and refused to comment, obviously she wanted to talk about it for the publicity, so she isn't as classy as she is trying to make out.

Jessie obviously asked the label to set that up though. Alex can't do anything without a force behind her, yes she has Kevin and Jojo, but there is a whole bunch of legal stuff that a label team would have to deal with to set it all up.

Alex has LOADS of contacts, she could get all manner of features if she really wanted to. Or even a quick call from Beyoncé to someone could get her hooked up. She also knows Pitbull and Flo-Rida well so I don't know really. It's her career after all.

It gave me a headache after the first play, I thought I was going to like it but honestly it's overproduced and there's too much going in the track.


I want her to work with Drake still or Usher.
