New Music - Selena Gomez

While I have liked previous Selena Gomez music, I’ve never felt like she was a true artist. I mean, let’s be real...she’s SELENA GOMEZ. She’s a Disney puppet and always will be...right?

Her latest “The Heart Wants What It Wants” is almost unrecognizable. It’s catchy, meaningful, and actually pretty fucking good. The latest single is a serious departure from her last album (and especially from pretty much everything she’s ever done) in that you can really hear her in it. When you go back and listen to “Come And Get It” (which I loved, for the record), you can only see a glimmer of hope that she will one day move beyond the top 40 pop radio fodder she’s always played around with (a game she doesn’t typically win), and this song is what we’ve been waiting for (if you’re in my camp at least).

After several albums, dozens of singles, and enough gold and platinum records to cover a wall, Selena Gomez may have finally decided to become a real recording artist. Or, am I getting ahead of myself?
