Britnee Kellogg’s song “This Mess” is a real and genuine reflection of the beauty, the adventures, and yes, the messiness of raising children. During a write with other moms, Kellogg was getting updates on the chaotic morning her husband was having back home in Washington with their kids. This caught all the moms’ attention and they decided to write a song about the beautiful mess that is raising kids. A big fan of 'Champagne victories', Kellogg told us “It takes me back to the days when you’re young and don’t have a lot of money but you want to celebrate all the little things so you buy the cheapest bottle of champagne to pop open and celebrate!” Being parents, there are so many little (and big) victories worth celebrating and she hopes that her listeners can relate as well. Recently following “This Mess,” Kellogg released her new album titled, “She’s Come a Long Way.” Released on June 28th, this inspiring album contains a mix of songs ranging from “melodic ballads that are very personal for me songs. And then there’s the really fun outgoing personality songs that are just to give an idea of what I’m like as a person.” Listen to the new album HERE.
Britnee has been making a name for herself in the music industry. She skyrocketed into the season as a contestant on American Idol for seasons 11 and 12 in 2012. She reflects on this experience, saying “It was really the best experience of my life between the wonderful people I met and all the things I learned there.” When asked what her biggest turning point was, she responded, “This experience taught me how to handle being told no. It’s not personal and it doesn’t mean people don’t like you or your music. It’s just part of the business.” Over the years, Kellogg has felt some guilt about leaving her kids to go on tour, but it was J-Lo herself who comforted and encouraged her by saying “My kids are literally backstage with my mom right now. You’re not leaving them, you’re doing what you love and they see that and are better for it.” That advice has stuck with Kellogg and she continues to remind herself of it today. Kellogg has a lot to be proud of but is far from done with releasing music and being the strong and hard-working woman she is. She may even have a few new projects in the works!
