Was Miley Cyrus Able To “Breakout”?

Although she’s only 15, Miley Cyrus has done it all. The “Hannah Montana” celebrity, who generated stormy debates with her incendiary photos released in Vanity Fair magazine earlier this year, has released a new album portraying her “Breakout” from the Disney Channel persona.

Miley, the daughter of country singer Billy Ray Cyrus, said that she wished for her new musical release to bring out a more mature sound. However, it’s not that clear if she was able to reach her goal of showing that she has grown up and is more responsible. Nonetheless, the album is sure to be a big success among her teenager fans, as she sings her way into dumping the same guy one track after another.

“Breakout” reveals a rebel Miley, who wants to “lose control” and get away from the routine that pressures just any adolescent: “Every week’s the same/Stuck in school’s so lame/My parents say that I’m lazy/Getting up at 8 a.m.’s crazy/Tired of bein’ told what to do/So unfair, so uncool.”

The runaway success “7 Things” is a gawky, yet amusing, jumble of country clatter rhymes and choruses with Avril Lavigne pop-punk influences and girl-power verses that strive to seem mature.

“These Four Walls,” written by MTV superstar Cheyenne Kimball, and “Goodbye” portray Miley Cyrus’s finest vocal performances and a more relaxed and appropriate sound that could actually be a suitable way for the 15-year-old celebrity to follow in the future.

With “Breakout,” Miley has undoubtedly decided to abandon the glossy and blissful “Hannah Montana” character, although she is far from becoming a mature young girl. For the moment, she stays what she has been for a couple of years now: a teenager role-model who has it all.
