Kandi Burruss & Dallas Austin Launch Kim Zolciak's Music Career | RHOA | "I've Never Heard Her Sing"

Kim Zolciak was able to launch her solo career with the help from renowned producers Dallas Austin and Kandi Burruss. However, the fellow housewives question her vocal abilities and wonder if this career path is a gimmick.

It's true though. I feel like It would've been deeper on a trust level had Kim and Nene collaborated. It would've been more of an original moment, a more memorable moment in housewivea reality tv history. It's not deep, but the song and collaboration would've been more entertaining. It could've been a playful tv female housewives duo moment, instead of a solo "upcoming" artist vibe. This song crosses my mind and I enjoy to playfully sing it. But if it was a Kim, Nene, and Kandi collabo moment (Which you never know if Kandi would've done a playful appearance beyond producing), it would've been more of a memorable, beautifully supportive tv moment. The trust developed between Kim and Nene collabing, could've carried into Kandi. Maybe? Anything can happen. She was already producing it, and she's used to performing. If the vibe is right, her energy could've just been invested in a different way. Trust process is hard but it feels enriching to go through it.

[@Thenamestylon]

Kandi really saved the song 😂😂 and Kim just didn’t want to accept the fact she sounded a mess beyond a mess just down right no

[@joshuamcdowell9745]

That's why she didn't want to hear herself back when she was in the studio with Dallas 😂😂

[@mariellclement8092]

Kim was very jealous of Kandi. The reason being is that Kandi is truly Hella talented. She did my Gurl Kandi Burruss sooooo dirty because of her jealousy. This is why Kim is going through what she's going through right now. Her frenemy, Nene Leakes, put it best: "You don't win when you play dirty!"

[@moniquewatkins9952]

Kim was using Kandi from jump. Unfortunately, Kandi’s dislike for NeNe wouldn’t allow her to see that.

[@dijauneaiymuan9834]

Nene really didn’t like Kandi at first . But honestly it doenst matter . It’s not like Kim’s music career took off . The song was just popular bc of the show . If she wouldn’t have done Kandi wrong I’m sure it her music career could’ve gone a lot further

[@moniquewatkins9952]

@@dijauneaiymuan9834 No, Kandi didn’t like NeNe at first because of what she “heard” before joining the show. Kandi took Kim’s side in this dispute and ended up getting played by Kim. What was always funny to me is how Kandi embraced a KNOWN side chick (Kim), but swear up and down today that she doesn’t like side chicks. I guess being a side chick is okay if Kandi likes the person.

[@truelife974]

​@@moniquewatkins9952there wasn't a side to take when it came down to it. It was Kim's song from the beginning. Kim only chose not to have NeNe on the song after she found out NeNe was talking negatively about her. Kandi just did her job which was to produce the song. She did nothing wrong to NeNe. NeNe was upset because the song sounded great when it was finished and somehow imagined someone doing something wrong to her. Again, there were no sides to pick.

[@CoolForSale]

The funny thing is Nene is always right retrospectively…she warned Kandi & ofc bull headed Taurus have to learn the hard way 🥲

Let's be for real. Kim could have made more out of it than just a big mess. It was her laziness and bad business that stopped her. The crowd loved her when she performed in Miami, so did Phaedra!

[@mariellclement8092]

Kim Zolciak is indeed lazy. She lacks discipline. She uses people, then toss them aside when they are no longer useful to her. Just ask her soon-to-be has-been Was-band, That Jackass, Kroy. They both truly deserve each other for how badly they treated others. The payback is now they are making each other miserable.

[@elijahishere]

I agree. The songs were decent and if she'd actually gotten vocal coaching, she might have sounded like something. She was also clearly too self-conscious to give a good performance. "Tardy for the Party" had a Ke$ha kind of sound, which would have worked well at the time. She fumbled the bag big time.

Girl pleeeeeeease

[@mariellclement8092]
