Demi Lovato's a tall skyscraper who's very Confident who's had a super cool summer!!!!


I first heard Demi Lovato’s song “Skyscraper” about four years ago in 2011 from “Unbroken” album her third album. I fell in love with the lyrics and there was something extremely powerful about the meaning that can resonate with any human being. As a woman who lives in a city full of skyscrapers in New York we know how a 
building can be built high reaching the stratosphere and how it can disintegrate into dust, twisted metal, and debris. The song is about no matter what negative feelings or opinions you may have of another individual you must have thick skin and be able to deal with the personal challenges and struggles you face every day. We often see the glamour of a celebrity, we see the make up, the beautiful stylish pulled together outfits, the limousines and SUVs dropping them off at red carpet events, them dining at fancy restaurants, and cameras flashing with fast men running around squandering and squatting taking pictures of the latest “It Girl” and Famous faces. We don’t see what their daily beasts are behind the scenes. The personal issues they face day after day. I loved Demi Lovato’s story, her honesty, something about her I could identify with struggling with self-acceptance a popular theme in any young woman’s life. Accept you don’t deal with it on a large public scale where people can critique you behind a computer screen, behind a camera lens, and even right in front of your face too.
            She has dealt with many personal battles, drug addiction, self- mutilation, and weight or body image issues. These are topics that are not easy to discuss at all and I admire her for even opening the door for people who struggle and deal with those issues personally themselves. She also was diagnosed with bipolar disorder in 2010 after an incident with a background dancer she checked immediately into rehab and got on the right track. I believe her learning to accept herself, going to rehab, counseling, and therapy. Giving her self completely in her music and all of her major accomplishments allowed her to heal all of her wounds physically and metaphorically before she was fully ready to commit to a healthier, happier, fulfilled Demi Lovato. I haven’t read her book yet but can only imagine that it will tell the story of a young woman who struggled and dealt with many tests and battles but came out completely on top. She has done so much for people all across the world telling her story. She was one of the judges on Fox’s “The X Factor” and was assigned to mentor aspiring musicians across the country and critique them on the show battling head to head against thousands of hopeful winners. Her strength and perseverance along with her determination allows her to continue fighting on and she pushes through.
            So with that said let’s talk about “Confident” this is her fifth studio album and she is in a great place, new fit figure, new sexy modern 2000s look,  and she looks like she is coming into her own as a young 23-year-old woman who recently just turned 23 on August 20th. Opening up more about her sexuality, feeling liberated, and she looks and feels more free.  I believe she’s a very mature 20-something about someone who has battled many different storms you grow up quickly and you become wiser fast, smarter, and learn powerful and some painful lessons too. Not just that but just her political views as well on social issues she is open to people of all walks of life and backgrounds. On this album I feel like it’s the breakout of the woman of Demi Lovato. She’s leaving behind her Disney television days , the teeny bopper image and now she is stepping into her womanhood and owning it battle scars and all. Her first single “Cool for the Summer” has been the 2015 anthem of the summer playing across television shows, the radio on heavy rotation on dance and pop radio stations across the country and world.  She is showing people that she’s ready to soar and break out as an artist.  I believe this is the side America may have been wanting to see we know what she can do vocally she has 3- octave range and incredible pipes.  I heard Demi’s voice on “Neon Lights” and “Heart Attack” I knew this woman has got it! Incredible voice she has hit some notes that shows she has soul and has some power in it as well. You can tell her vocal range could carry ballads, pop anthems, rock, dance hits, and more.  You will see this incredibly beautiful, unique and talented woman’s voice on her next and new album on October 16, 2015 Confident will debut and I hope all of you will hear and listen to it cannot wait to grab “Demi” and “Confident” very soon.  For more information visit her website http://www.demilovato.com for more information.
