Alexandra Burke 'DROPPED' from her record label due to Failure
 
Cant buy a hit

Alexandra Burke has reportedly been dropped from her record label after her most recent album only made it to No 16 in the UK chart.

She is said to have split from her label Decca, after releasing her third album The Truth Is with the team in March last year, reports The Sun.

Former Strictly contestant Alexandra also split with her last two labels, Syco and RCA, after releasing an album with each of them.

She's the prime example of soulless manufactured X Factor tat, and has been since her first smirking rendition of Hallelujah.

Her label was crap and so was the album, she’s super talented so no doubt she’ll get another one if that’s what she wants

armand.kay 31-01-2019 12:04 PM

it would be cute if she did a few musicals

arista 31-01-2019 12:09 PM

Maybe she is giving up on Quality Music,

bots 31-01-2019 12:11 PM

my impression is that people just don't like her, so it doesnt really matter how good a singer she is, people just wont buy from someone they don't like

let's leave Fergie out of this

Livia 31-01-2019 02:14 PM

I don't know anyone who likes her.

I saw Beverley Knight as Rachel Marron in The Bodyguard... Alexandra Burke can only wish....

really

what is her talent?

it cant be as a pop singer as her albums and singles keep tanking

Oliver_W 31-01-2019 02:35 PM

Didn't the "okay dot com" thing pretty much tank her career?

her talent is her voice
she could probably sing anything apart from bel canto
you know very well that most singers don't write their stuff
so while she's not without blame for her career flop it's mostly down to management
as to her likeablity, I like her, but she does come across as needy
but that's to do with her lack of confidence not lack of talent, i.e her voice

lol

there are good singers in every town in the UK, common as dog sh1te in a park

talented people have hits not expensive vanity projects

Tom4784 31-01-2019 03:08 PM

She's always had bad management. She could do with getting a new team that will do a better job of promoting her.

Diana Vickers woz robbed.

...in all seriousness though, Alexandra Burke has a technically great voice but she's bland as ****. She was on the show, and she has been since. I swear Hallelujah is one of the most hollow tracks ever released. A vapid, sucking void of a song.

She was amazing in Sister Act aswell so I have high hopes for her in The Bodyguard.

One may say a perfect choice for such a girl.

Oh the song itself is fine when I've heard it sung by pretty much anyone else... it's specifically her version that's bad.
