Go, Rachel Crow!




Kudos to Rachel Crow! Recognize her from The X-Factor? This powerful 14-year-old singer released her first EP earlier this summer. We're really digging the first track, Mean Girls, which Rachel co-wrote. Check out the video, and let us know what you think in the comments!

Have you ever been bullied? How did you deal with it?

She's awesome, isn't she? Thanks!

Love that it's age appropriate for her. That song will speak to her audience, I can picture 12 and 14 year olds singing it at the top of their lungs.

I agree, Sara!

Just last year, she was the spunky 13-year-old girl charming "The X Factor's" panel of judges with her sassy rendition of "Mercy." A few months later, she was the girl who fell to the floor sobbing and wailing after an earlier-than-expected elimination sent her packing from the reality competition. These days, she's being groomed to be Nickelodeon's next teen sensation.here
