It has it's own thread, which is why it was never posted in here.

 New DigitalSpy article: QUOTE Sugababes singer Amelle Berrabah has revealed that she has almost completed work on her debut solo album.
The star confirmed she plans to put out her LP in summer, adding that she has 'poured her heart and soul' into the project. "Well, my kind-of deadline is the summer, so I'm due to release in the summer," she told No White Noise. "I was supposed to release a little earlier but I think since it's my first solo project, like really by myself, I've been sort of a perfectionist. I want to be completely ready. "I think at the moment everything has been falling into place perfectly, so it's looking like its definitely going to be this summer. I literally can't wait to get performing again." Berrabah also admitted that releasing the record in America would be "literally a dream come true", adding: "it's always in the forefront of conversation in my meetings and stuff with the label, so, well, I'll make sure it happens. "It's definitely something I've put my whole heart and soul into, so I'm going to really push and really hope for success over there. I really do."

Scouring my iTunes Library for a playlist and I came across this!!
6 years on its a little dated now, that dubstep pop phase didn't produce many timeless tracks, but still pretty decent. Probably the best thing she did Solo post-babes. |

^ Totally agree! It's her best track. So catchy, even if it has aged prematurely like everything else from around that time.
Why didn't they push this as the lead? Was it because it leaked early or something? |

No idea! Her solo career was worse than the flatline release. It never really had any momentum to it and nothing seemed to happen. I can't recall this ever getting a release or much hype outside of the fanbase.

Shame! She's very talented and worked super hard over the years to break into the industry. It seemed so promising in 2009 with Never Leave You, but Sweet 7/Freedom definitely did a lot of damage for her credibility I think.

The less said about Freedom the better. Crash & Burn showed promise but I think Sweet 7 showed the UK was done with them. I'm not sure it'd've faired much better with Keisha but I live in hope that Wear My Kiss would never have been a single.

As much as Get Sexy was frontloaded in sales, I think there was still some interest in the band at that point to reach #2 in the charts. I'm under no illusions that Sweet 7 would've been a multi-platinum success, but I genuinely think Keisha's presence, and their sticking to the original plans, would've resulted in more of a fruitful era. Thank You For The Heartbreak/Wait For You should've been single #3, showing at least some identity as 'Sugababes'.
They'd probably have split after Sweet 7 anyway.

Amelle should've left Sugababes during Keishagate and just gone solo. It probably would've benefitted her instead of being seen as a betrayer along with Heidi.

^ Too true. Keisha's departure was extremely damaging to them all.

I don’t think the change in sound helped either. It got forgotten that Keisha started this era and people just saw Sweet 7 and Wear My Kiss and chalked it up to Keisha leaving.
The total f*** up that was the Sweet 7 Release defo harmed its performance too. It was available in full like 7 weeks before release. Idiocy |

Amelle responded to fans on Twitter last night saying she plans to upload some of her unreleased material. She said this about Wrigley's Extra:
QUOTE Ill put it up in the next few days so U can listen for yourself... it’s defo... ummm... different

She's not very smart making these promises on Twitter as potential producers might step in and stop her from sharing them, but maybe they won't mind.

Well, at least Crown wasn't involved with her brief solo career and I believe she did most stuff with Pete Kirtley, who she collaborated with pre-Sugababes? So maybe he won't put his foot down, but yeah, she should've just leaked them if she wanted them out there. |

It was actually Kirtley who put Mutya's original demo of Strung Out on his MySpace... then got grumpy when fans discovered it and it 'leaked'. Maybe he's still feeling generous.
