WHO is behind this sassy pseudonym? Backstory:  Heard a bit of Taylor Swift's "You Belong With Me" on TikTok but just had to hear it again in full so I decided to listen to the pop mix on YT.  Obviously, one of her gay fans uploaded it freely on their channel. Saw this weird thumbnail of a grandma doll smiling with the video title Girl Bye (2:22 long) that the algorithm suggested.  Bizzare, right? I do like bizzare sometimes so I had to check it out. Surprisingly... not bad, right? Took a listen to some other songs &, they're basically ALL listenable!    Tried to do a research. Checked the description because it seemed to me it's not AI vocals but a real vocalist, sounds professional & pretty much radio-ready. Something Selena Gomez/Tate McRae/Addison Rae/Chappel Roan/Sabrina Carpenter/other current pop stars in that vein would easily release & the pop culture world would embrace 100%.    The X account gave no clues, the YT channel description gives no info (same with video descriptions), the "label" that released ALL these albums was made just for this exact project. When you Google the lyrics, you get nowhere. Songs are available on all streaming platforms in great quality. What a discovery!  What's even more amazing is... Most of these songs have never been streamed until now (at least on YT)! The length is short (TikTok trend-ready style), which means they're not that old plus they sound like they belong on the radio & to some of our favorite pop artists. Some possibly just unfinished concept demos. My take on this is:  Could be a (successful) ghost-songwriter in style of Madison Love (kinda sounds like her too?!), Sarah Hudson, Julia Michaels... Remember when nobody knew Mariah Carey secretly recorded & released a full-length album Someone's Ugly Daughter under the pseudonym Chick? Maybe this is a secret project full of unsold songs that other artists passed on. Something like what Sia did with Shakira's & Rihanna's leftovers. Maybe this girl's gay BFF got her approval to officially put this material out to the world & decided to go batsh*t crazy while at it (I mean, the cover-art!!).  Then again, could also be a talented producer who hired a girl to sing their songs for a stock music website. Then they decided to play around & the rest is history. Have a feeling that, thanks to the gays, this lil' grandma with a huge nose will blow up in 3...2...1 💥  Either way, we've got something to listen to now. At least for a moment until something new pops up. Enjoy! P.S. Really hope someone is able to reveal something about this or identifies the singer.

I didn't know that! So awesome. The album is freakin' amazing & deserves to be heard!!! 🙂

It's crazy that there's so much vaulted BTR material. Those boys were booked and busy!

4 years ago, I put a comment that reveals that I wanna hear that version.   That wasn’t until now, I’m convinced that recorded a demo version of worldwide, because James vocals stuff after in after the chorus, similar to the boyfriend demo ver.

I'm excited to see the printed photocards! I feel like it's gonna look really cool in physical version
