2. Strobelights
Writers: Justin Forsley/ Stephan Jones/ Sydney Reeves
Description: Female Pop/Dance Uptempo

Description: Female R&B/Pop Midtempo

4. High Life
Writers: Justin Forsley/ Thomas Beringer/ Dahrio Hutton/ Milana Leybovich
Description: Female Pop/Dance Midtempo
Comment: The best of the glam life is outlined in this club sounding song. Cameras, red carpet, this is the world of our high-maintenance girl! “I can’t do no wrong, so treat me right … It’s the High Life living up the High Life”

5. Hunt You Down
Writers: Justin Forsley/ Aimee Proal. Shane Stevens
Description: Female Pop/Punk/Rock Uptempo
Comment: Pop/rock production…female lyric about getting the guy she wants: “cause you got what she’s after.” Sexy, cute, aggression: “ain't no use in being coy.” It’s the perfect bad girl hit!

6. Charades
Writers: Alex Greggs/ Lauren Evans. Shane Stevens
Description: Female Pop/Dance/Electro Midtempo
Comment: The 80s, dance/pop revisited in the production…lyrically, here love is: "a silly little guessing game;" where the boy is toying with her heart and she’s had enough.

7. Broke Down
Writers: Tebey/ Erik "Bluetooth" Griggs/ Shane Stevens
Description:Male Pop/R&B Midtempo
Comment: A great analogy for a relationship gone wrong. “Broke Down on the side of the road…this love is unrepairable cause there ain’t no way to fix it!” Enough said!

10. Live 2 B
Writers: JC Smith/ Lauren Evans/ Milana Leybovich
