‘American Idol’ Voted Off Cadence Baker Says This Is Not The End

American Idol Cadence Baker was voted off on the latest episode. But she says this is not the end of her career. Her journey ended in Season 20. However, Cadence feels hopeful about the future.

She will continue to look to her future in music. Cadence has a good feeling that her music career is just getting started. The aspiring singer from Muscle Shoals, Alabama tried out for the singing competition with an acoustic version of Whitney Houston’s “I’m Your Baby Tonight.” Following her jaw-dropping rendition, all three judges — Katy Perry, Lionel Richie, and Luke Bryan gave her a standing ovation.

Cadence Baker’s journey has come to an end

Cadence Baker has musical roots in her family. Her father, Shane, works as a professional musician. She’s also the granddaughter of world-renowned musician and songwriter, Gary Baker. The American Idol alum found out that she could end up in the Top 10 of the competition.

All three judges gave her a ticket to Hollywood. During Hollywood Week, Cadence sang Brandi Carlile’s “The Story.” This performance advanced her to the Top 24 of Season 20 of American Idol. Cadence also sang an amazing rendition of “Something’s Got a Hold on Me” by Etta James.

For her Top 20 performance, Cadence performed “Train Wreck” by James Arthur. Unfortunately, she didn’t receive enough votes from American Idol viewers to compete for the judges’ save. In addition, Candence’s performance of the Whitney Houston classic was also not enough to get her a spot in the Top 14.

Cadence had to go back home to her native Alabama. Fans were sad to see her go. They were hoping that she would make it to the end. It’s been a dramatic season of American Idol. Cadence is positive about her journey and where it’s led her. She feels that her music career is just getting started.
