[@jesygood2324]

I could be wrong but I think Hilary actually said in an interview that radio stations refused to play her music because she was on the Disney Channel. I think it was around Miley’s time that radio stations understood the power these teens stars have. I remember hearing See You Again and Start All Over on radio. That being said Aly & AJ deserve so much more than they get. Especially since their 2nd album Insomniatic is SO GOOD!

[@gabrielmunozmusic]

it's true. Hilary actually wasn't all over radio. The only song that she had in the top 40 that got airplay was 'Come Clean' which I think was a perfect mainstream song. Other than that, she broke the mold for the next-gen to get to be on radio for sure. Her reputation however gives people the impression she was heavily rotated, but she wasn't.

[@notyouraveragebear9326]

@@gabrielmunozmusic you mean to tell me “So Yesterday” and “Fly” wasn’t played heavily on the radio?! Okay well I Damn sure saw those videos on MTV every single day I watched around that time

[@jesygood2324]

I think Come Clean was somewhat promoted because it was the theme song for Laguna Beach. I could be wrong for sure though. But I never heard HD on radio except Radio Disney. She definitely paved the way though! Without her we wouldn’t have Miley or Selena.

Aly looks amazing as a brunette

[@twentysvn]

Hilary Duff was ABSOLUTELY all over the radio but that’s because she wasn’t signed to Disney exclusively. She released her first album between Lizzie McGuire and The Lizzie McGuire Movie

[@teresitaperegrina3741]

Miley was also signed to Disney (as Hannah)& Hollywood records (as Miley)

[@jesygood2324]

Actually Hilary was signed to Buena Vista/Hollywood Records which are Disney owned. Most Disney Channel acts get signed to Hollywood Records.

[@lazyboyz]

i mean, quiet as its kept. Hillary Duff was the first "Disney Star." Who came before her? She was the first to have a hit show, that show having a theatrical release (first ever for Disney Original, followed by Hannah Montana" and to release their on album non affiliated with Disney and to be mainstream. She created the mold and made it possible for everyone who came after her. *cough* Selena & Miley*

It doesn't to me because they weren't on Disney Channel at the time. I had forgotten about them in a way ny the time, tbh. Was shocked especially to see Aly because I loved her on Phil of the Future.

Nothing wrong with them not wanting to be defined by that. It was an outstanding part of their career but that's not all they should be recognized for

[@shmems96]

Their first album is so nostalgic to me as a young girl I would listen to it all the time. They actually had mature themes in their songs with actual meaning and they helped me through a lot! Love you Aly and AJ!

[@andredrw289]

I do find it weird that they were also put in that “Disney” box. Like yeah Aly did Phil of the Future for a while and they both did Cow Belles but even after that I wouldn’t consider them “Disney” if that makes sense. And they’re so right about pushing them but then not getting airplay. Swear the only time I would hear either them or Miley or Selena when they were at Disney on the radio was specifically on Radio Disney and it’s kinda sad but I’m really glad they’re getting the recognition they deserve as musicians

[@musiclover_kb4913]

Yes that's true and I do remember the Jonas Brothers' concerts getting advertised thru mainstream radio but NEVER did I hear their music play. In fact, Miley did get some songs to play on the air, like The Climb, See You Again, Party In the USA, etc.

[@andredrw289]

@@musiclover_kb4913 it’s so weird

[@BeeKee404]

Right? The song was released 2007 and they stopped being on Disney Channel by then anyway.

[@andredrw289]

@@lalaland2107 yeah so it’s really weird that they weren’t promoted as such. Sometimes after Phil of the Future ended, it felt like Aly&Aj were like Disney adjacent in the sense of Aly has roots in Disney but isn’t fully considered “Disney” if that makes sense

[@DanielleP0314]

Miley, Selena, Demi, Jonas Brothers have all transcended far past Disney at this point, but Aly & AJ hadn’t. They were icons at the time but when they left they hadn’t gone past their time there. That’s why people still recall their Disney days even though they weren’t on the label for that long. still LOVEEE them though!!

[@Strawb_Goblin]

I dont feel like theyve become household names or big pop stars but I think its impressive they both have stayed working in hollywood doing interesting projects. Aly was one of the leads of iZombie and AJ voices main characters in She Ra and Steven Universe (where she also sings) all these projects have been viewed by millions and have several seasons

[@twentysvn]

I had the hugest crush on AJ growing up and I loved all their music.

[@xatuyou8045]

[@purplehood8418]

I’m kind of glad they got out a little earlier. The Sprouse Twins saw the writing on the wall and left The Mouse TM and did what they wanted. These two just need to stay consistent and they’ll be around for a while. ☺️

[@BellaEstrella7]

I always thought they were incredible musicians! and had a mature sound for their age. 'No one' was a great song and they were so young. it sounded more mature so i really respected their skills as musicians and re-played their albums far beyond the years of many other young disney pop stars.

[@danielhubley3335]

My mom bumps all their music year round 🤣

[@Jessica_Pettis]

They really had the best songs and covers to songs. Such talent, no autotune (that I know of) and real personalities. Disney should of done more for their talent. But I’m glad they’re still making music to this day. You know you have talent when their songs are still listened to years later.

[@tereskova_a]

wow and see you again is SUCH A GOOD SONG, in my country played a lot on some radio stations and everytime I listen to it takes me to that time

[@aliveasalways]

Personally, I still do tie them to the Disney name, mostly because they didn't have this on-screen persona on Disney that they had to break (unlike Miley and Selena, per se), and so their personality that I knew back then (at Disney) and now (as independent artists) are not too different. But, yeah, I agree, it's not necessarily bad, because it feels almost like they're my friends to a certain point, that I've known for years, since my childhood, so that's how I will most likely always remember them. I'd say the same thing about Brenda Song too, tbh.

[@magicmakerify]

Also, Disney child stars who left Disney like Miley, Selena, and Demi all stayed relevant in the big screen after leaving the company. Disney gave them the fame, they just kept it going by making a name for themselves and continuing their work as individual artists whereas Aly and AJ sorta went low-key and people I know would also just refer them to their work in Disney because that’s all they know about them.

[@louievallejo4510]

they deserve so much credit their music now is so fucking good I love it

[@jaceycarlos]

Louder bru!

[@dannikayyy]

that really was the golden age of disney. i literally still listen to the music lol idec.

[@aqmalzullif1324]

I think hilary and others from that age definitely paved the way but Miley really broke the mold, she was really the first to go global and become crazy successful while being on disney. Her music, movie and tv shows all went no.1 and had global success. I think finally with her were "Disney" stars seen as a mega threat to the industry. She was competing with pop stars in general and not limited to just teen stars. I remember all the articles about just how great her impact was. They always had miley with taylor or katy and she would be invited to perform with other mega stars like Beyonce and rihanna. Her brand was immense.

[@twentysvn]

Ally & Aj deserve more success.

[@Poester370]

I love their new album! It’s so great, I’m so happy they’re back.

[@anij3222]

See You Again by Miley was an accidental hit. They just started playing it on the radio and it went top 10 without a music video. Even as the song exploded in popularity, Disney never gave it the due justice it deserved. Party in the USA was originally made to promote Mileys clothing line at Walmart and it got played on the radio and became another accidental hit. I remember checking iTunes and it was #1 for all of Summer 2009 and even now is still in the top 100 of iTunes as I type this. To this day (2021) radio still doesn't really play miley, all her success is purely sales driven, she's only lately become a streaming presence with plastic hearts

[@karrmellacobb2674]

Aly and aj have the best fashion sence and make up so natural it’s so refreshing

[@gio2142]

It always sucks being put in a box but I think they’re beginning to climb out of it in the public’s eye. You have to remember, the more prominent the Disney star, the more intense their transition out of Disney will be. Aly & AJ were not in deep as much and therefore their transition was more subtle. Miley | Hannah Montana -> did Can’t be tamed & Wrecking Ball and all sorts of stuff to make it clear that “Hannah is dead” Selena | Wizards of Waverly Place -> Released more adult music while ALSO doing Spring Breakers which changed how the audience viewed her. Demi | Camp Rock/ Sonny with a Chance -> Songs like “ Cool for the Summer” and other hits made it clear that she wasn’t Sonny anymore. Overall, if you aren’t in the public’s face in mainstream media on a regular basis (meaning no indie movies and such). The kids, now adults, that grew up watching you are going to associate you with the projects you did when they were young

[@poppinpinkchampagne4948]

_am i the only one who still listens to their old stuff from the disney days? and not jusy potential breakup song_

[@Elizabeth-gt4ft]

[@simoneleighton9845]

I mean no shade to them but they're probably packaged as the former disney o.g. girls because that was their most successful time in their career XD and that's not to say they aren't doing cool things now, but disney is a massive platform and it certainly doesn't discredit them to add that if they want to maintain relevancy... I mean otherwise lt's be real they're too obscure

[@tropico1792]

yeah i totally agree. and them taking a long hiatus didn’t help them either. they’d prob be way more popular if they kept up with music the way stars like miley, demi, or selena

[@oliverstrahle]

I think the sort of music they're producing now, and with them going the indie-route, pushes that narrative too. I think journalists like to contrast the idea of the 'Disney puppet' who has no input into their music with them self-releasing now

[@charliefual]

That’s why Ashley Tisdale decided to sign with Warner Bros Records to release her music, but it was still pretty much controlled by Disney, she even had to do a “clean version” for He Said She Said for Disney to play it. That without saying Disney made her scrap the original video for the song because it was “too sexy for Disney” because she was releasing her debut album during the height of the HSM fame.

[@mckenziejeanne4508]

I’m so glad they’re making music again! They haven’t aged! Aly looks great as a brunette. Hilary was dismissed as an artist by radios stations even though she had some GREAT music after she left Disney Channel! The radio stations should have given her a chance. Adrienne Bailon, a very talented and beautiful singer from The Cheetah Girls was dismissed for being on Disney when she tried to start a music career outside of Disney (even though she is extremely talented) and they made her think she couldn’t sing. She thought she couldn’t sing because people were assholes to her for being on Disney. Now she has confidence again and had an album.

[@RoLee705]

I never thought they weren’t mainstream. I do believe that the songs from Disney artists 9/10 sound like “Disney songs,” but outside of that, Disney artists were just as much celebrities as anybody else. The only thing that was different was the struggle to break from being a child/Disney star without looking cheap, desperate, or unfortunately turning to substance abuse/harming yourself as you struggle to break free. That said, while Aly & AJ were there for less time, they ducked out and kind of disappeared from their main audience. So they were stunted as Disney musicians/actors. Although, I still never really saw them as squeaky clean Disney stars and nothing else. I saw them as more edgy, like The Veronicas. So I think if they could’ve stuck around with Disney longer to help boost their music career, they should’ve. Unless they had a bad contract going for them or something.

[@briv2403]

I had the biggest crush on Aly growing up lol

[@ambzerambzer8800]

I’ve always heard these stars outside of Disney as well, in the UK we don’t have Disney radio (unless you went on KZbin) but I remember “Potential break up song” “See you again” “la la land” they were all on the radio on coaches and in shops. But I do think it sucks that they were all shoved in a Disney bubble because even though I’m younger that Miley, Selena ect. You got called “babyish” for liking their music, they’re music was never babyish and I still enjoy them today. But yeah whenever they’re always referred to as “Disney stars” it is lazy journalism, in fact most Hollywood article writers are very lazy and biased

[@erica-bm1ke]

I dont think a journalist or writer is not doing their due diligence if they mention disney channel because their fame came from disney channel. Even when they did other stuff, the notoriety wasn't nearly as large as Disney. I think they should appreciate the fame that comes with starting on Disney Channel. 6 years is still a long time.

[@thelisarahman]

I think media is still associating them with Disney and not with Selena Miley and Demi is cause they never left. They went from Disney right into the mainstream. Alt & AJ disappeared. I think if Bridget Mendler came back and was like I’m ready to be taken as a serious mainstream artist, she too would have the same predicament cause everyone knows her from Good Luck Charli. She had one hit and then disappeared. But Selena and Miley really never stepped out of the scene. They did projects outside of Disney. And kept making music, whereas these girls disappeared for a long time. People forget and the reminder of their past helps people remember who they are. That past will never be behind them until they are out there making more music that’s not attached to anything from Disney. Once they establish themselves outside of their past, their past will always be there. And maybe they are wanting to now at 30 years old not be associated with Disney and it’s understandable, but it’s also understandable why media is still attaching them to their past.

[@selenagomezacapella]

I wouldn’t say they completely disappeared, after Phil of the Future, whichever one was on the show went on to star as the lead in the show Hellcats and was also in the movie The Roommate aside from making music. I remember still seeing her at award shows and stuff in 2011 (Phil ended in 2006) but then she kinda dipped.

[@JJ-kj6ly]

I agree with Aly’s very first point. I love Hilary and think she has some bops, but for the most part- until Hollywood Records started giving girls like Miley and Selena, later Demi a budget to do stuff, the content was pretty horrible. Aly & AJ were the outlier until the second wave of 3rd wave of DC stars came and really got the mainstream rub. They really did get the shit end from the industry because unfortunately it didn’t really matter how good the music was, they were Disney.

[@musiclover_kb4913]

I don't agree with that because when Aly & AJ were signed, so were the Jonas Brothers, Jesse McCartney, Cheetah Girls, and Jordan Pruitt, all of whom were very talented

[@hawkiepants9]

You are most known for Disney! You aren’t known on the mainstream for anything else. That’s why they bring it up.

[@VioletIceFire]

All of these disney stars both big and small paved the way for the likes of new disney artists like Olivia Rodrigo to gain success as "easily" as they have. I dont think if her music cameout back in the day would it have ever seen the light of day on radio especially when Aly and AJ, Hilary Duff, Jonas Brothers, Miley who made similar genres could be considered just as good.
