Roller-coaster.

If there’s any phrase that best captures the recent years of Alexandra Burke‘s career, it’d be exactly that. Roller-coaster.

In an open letter to fans, the vocal powerhouse revealed that while she’s gearing up to release a new EP – it’ll be without the shepherding of former Def Jam juggernaut Kevin Liles. The exec and his KWL team, who manage the likes of Trey Songz, had been working with Burke on her much anticipated US debut. However, she has confirmed that they have now gone their separate ways.
