Just listened to her live performance of Sticks and Stones on her Vevo, good god it's awful, bum notes all over the place: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uXbmBr5QXVc
It's a very personal song and it's called emotion. I like that in my artists.

I don't mean to sound mean but she seems a bit wet behind the ears as far as plugging and promoting yourself goes. It's the music biz and like it or not, you do have to play the game to some extent if you want to get yourself and your music noticed. You can't just be "nice" - there has to be a bit of hype, even if it is manufactured, and if your music's good, you'll get away with it.

It's pop music which is image based rather than music based, if you haven't got the image to market nothing else matters, no matter how talented you maybe.

It's called singing out of tune.
