TPTB effed up Leona's chances in the US by constantly referencing Mariah Carey during her promo. If they had just allowed her voice to shine and let American audiences get to know her organically I think she could've gained a bigger following.

I like her personality - she seems like a sweetheart but her label hasn't really pushed her to the US. I have to search youtube for interviews and profile shows about her although I am of the mindset that if her music is good, she wouldn't need a big push from her label.

I am a fan who is rooting for her and am anticipating the new music but I was very disappointed with her last album, ECHO and if this one is equally bad I'll have to put Le-Le on my "must hear 3 or 4 singles before I buy the album" list.
