Well, it looks like Kellie Pickler got her a Nashville record contract. Good for her!
The bad news is that they plan to release her new album in November, and she's going to be recording songs between stops on the "American Idols Live" tour.
What does this mean?
- Putting out an album that fast means that there will probably be very little original material. I'm anticipating many cover songs.
- Kellie will be singing and that's it. No creative input from her. Maybe that's a good thing, considering her song choices on AI.
- No duets or collaborations. Not enough time to put it together.
Contrast this with Taylor Hicks' album, which doesn't have a release date yet. He's pledged to write most of his own songs, perform on the guitar and harmonica, and to do collaborations and duets with other artists. You'll notice this takes a lot longer to produce.
I'm hopeful for this girl. She's interesting, which makes her potential star material, but she needs a lot of guidance from her team.
