Could Bridgit Mendler have had Billie Eilish's career?


Recommended Posts

She was releasing very Billie Eilish-esque sounding music before the actual Billie Eilish blew up

 

So many pop girls tried to copy Billie Eilish's sound once she became big.

 

Was Bridgit the OG? Could she have been as big as Billie if she continued releasing bops? It also took Billie a while to break through.

Idk about the success tbh. Billie blew up in 2017, bridgit released Atlantis the year before in 2016 and was still release droplet singles into 2017.

she's a cult star regardless, so iconic

Bridgit released quality music unlike other Disney stars, she was too talented for average general public

billie's first song came out in 2015. technically, bridgit's indie pop sound came after billie.

I don't know about being as successful as Billie is now, but her music outside of Hollywood Records was so good (and I actually do love her debut album too for that matter). I guess big labels in 2016 weren't looking to bring her on with the style of music she was making, if she was even pitching to big labels. It's hard when her Disney Channel peers were already signed to major labels by then and some of them already had multiple major hits under their belt.

I think yes but truthfully she never had the hunger Billie has had :michael: Billie and Finneas had a vision and knew how to bring their nightmarish ideas to life while continuously building hype. Bridgit never felt like she was about building hype tbh! she was more about just showcasing her talent with great pop songs. I'm happy for her though, her career has been incredible :clap3: I'd love some new music at some point too of course!

No.

 

Bridget never had that "cool" factor that would draw in young girls like Billie had.

 

She always had that sweet girl-next-door vibe, which just isn't as much of a stan attractor 

 

That being said we love a highly educated woman and she's slaying the academic world. :WAP:

She wasn't interested in music at all, at this point I think she read her being dropped by Hollywood as a sign that she didn't had to put energy into anything related to music.

 

To think she has a lot of songs on her hard drive with Hollywood and independently to make like three albums says it all, she always loved acting more than making music and also she was just too normal to be a star.

 

I'm so happy that she's happy too, you can tell she didn't want to be famous only showcase her talent. She's just too smart and good to be in the industry after all.
