I can think of a lot of people who would take that in a heartbeat. Yeah people are still streaming that first album still at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not like she is a new artist. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not like she is a new artist. 5.3M is a decent number but the trouble is that most of the streams are from the old album. The latest album definitely flopped horribly in sales. Maybe it will pick up steam in the future who knows but it's off to a really rough start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngelaKD Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 5 hours ago, ptebwwong said: Her current single "Glory Days" is #21 on Billboard Country Airplay & #19 on Mediabase. Radio isn't the problem. She's one of the few female country artists who gets ok radio airplay. Her single isn't connecting with people. She didn't do much promo because she's almost due. She's hasn't headlined her own tour ever so I'm not sure how much of a fanbase she has. Also, keep in mind her debut album's first week #'s was mostly due to streaming #'s & because of "I Hope." Her current single isn't streaming well & her new album is a country Christian album not country crossover pop like her debut. It’s crazy to me that she hasn’t headlined her own tour since “I Hope” broke big. Support slots can only take you so far. Eventually you have to tour on your own name, even if the venues are smaller.

There are artists way smaller than her that have their own headlining tours and they will sell out places that can fit a couple thousand people in it or whatever. That's way more valuable than almost anything really. (Assuming you are good at singing and performing live of course). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hsamid Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 (edited) Honestly, no huge disagreements from me. But there's always that one contestant that I just never see eye to eye with him so waiting for that to happen.

kamil24 Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 Gabby's album didn't chart but she's doing well. Growin' Up Raising You is going viral on Tik Tok and that should have honestly been the lead single. She's beein busy lierally having 3 kids between this era and the last, turning down high profile male duets to not offend her husband (). The lead Glory Days is decent, a good reflection of how great her life is, but not relatable enough to the general public. Maybe her label will push it higher on radio, but there are other options on the album. The album overall was pretty good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This sounds harsh, but the label's not going to care whether she's been busy having kids. If she doesn't make them money on this album, she's out, regardless of how good the record is. It's not a free ride. It cost money for labels to push a song on radio. The artist has to make that money back. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ptebwwong Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 Not what I expected from Kenedi. I like pop, but don't really like this. I'm surprised she self-released after all this time & the couple of Benson Boone shows she opened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StarWalker1 Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 dont know how true this is, but the top comment had stated that one of the reasons she left idol was due to her brother passing around the same time rip if its true 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reminds me of a mix of Olivia Rodrigo and Reneé Rapp. Vocals are great and production is fun, but lyrics are a bit cringe tbh. "put a pretty little bow on my feminine rage" is a peak TikTok bait lyric as well lol. added to my playlist tho! also interesting how she's just going by Kenedi as opposed to her full name.
