She was poised to be the next urban pop star and she tried waaay too hard to just be a pop star. She lost the urban edge that made her dope. That and a whole album with The Dream wasn't a good idea...btw how the hell is dude still doing whole albums. He had bad results Ciara, Mariah, that wack ass Vanity Six clone group he tried to put together. Dude, must have a hell of an agent...but I digress. Bottom line, if she stayed in her lane then she would have been cool. She tried too hard to take it to the next level before she had a solid fanbase that would follow her.
