It's an unfortunate state of affairs when, as an artist, one of your best songs is better known for being performed by a winner from a TV talent show (and sold more in that form too). But unfortunately for Shontelle, that's the case.

You may remember that Shontelle's impeccable R&B earworm 'Impossible' was released by problematic 2012 X Factor winner James Arthur. Arthur's rendition of the track, a swooping power ballad, shifted over 1 million copies in the UK, outselling Shontelle's original by a mile.

When she emerged eight years ago, Shontelle was hailed as the female NeYo. The singer, who is from Barbados, grew up with Rihanna, who she counts as a friend (she refers to the ANTI singer as 'Rih' in interviews and said that she 'got a lot of tips from her') and, at one point, it seemed like she might actually be an R&B singer-songwriter to match the melodic sensibilities of Alicia Keys with the snappy production of Usher.

Shontelle's breakout hit, 'T Shirt', wasn't huge in America (it peaked just inside the Top 40), but did manage to climb the charts in the UK, landing at number six. Despite this, her debut album, Shontelligence, failed to do much commercially and it received middling reviews critically. This led to her label re-releasing the collection with a new song, 'Stuck With Each Other'. However, this also failed to perform commercially.

Unperturbed, Shontelle soldiered on with a follow-up record, No Gravity, in 2010, which included 'Impossible', her highest-charting song in the US. Speaking to J-14 about the song, Shontelle said, 'I knew that there was no song out there for heartbroken people. I just wanted to put a song out that gave people hope – things may not work out the way you want them to, but you can move past it and everything is gonna be okay.'

Despite the nice sentiments and the high charting single, No Gravity also met mixed reviews from critics, with some chastising the album for being bland, faceless and unremarkable. Similarly, the album charted at a disappointing 81 on the Billboard 200, dropping out of the chart just a week after its release. On the bright side, it's sold at least 100,000 copies more than Shontelligence in America.

While rumours of a re-release (again) began to circulate, during a show at The Canal Room, New York in 2011, Shontelle revealed to the audience that she had actually begun work on her third LP.

While both Shontelligence and No Gravity were released through Universal Motown, Shontelle revealed that she had parted ways with that label and was set to release her untitled third album through Universal Republic. In September 2011 a new song, 'Reflection', premiered on SoundCloud. The track was alleged to be the lead single from the new album, although things went quiet following the song's release.

During 2012, Shontelle released a line of shoes and boots with Cat Footwear. Speaking to the Global Grind about the collection, she said, 'I feel as though I have had to embrace and conquer the seemingly impossible and find my own independence. This collaboration is an expression of that desire and of all my hopes and dreams.' During the interview, she also spoke about her album, saying that fans could expect 'growth and evolution'.

Nevertheless, as 2012 progressed there appeared to be no sign of an album. That same year, she teamed up with Omer Bhatti, the Norwegian rapper known for his friendship with Michael Jackson, on rather unremarkable song 'See The Light'.

In 2013, Shontelle announced that she was actually ready to release new music. 'Put Me On Blast' was confirmed as the lead single from her enigmatic third album and, according to Ultimate Music, a music video was even shot.

Despite this, Shontelle only appeared as a feature artist on two tracks that year, the messy EDM track 'I'm In Love' with Kato and the budget 'Stop Sign' with Angelique Sabrina. Then, after some restructuring at Universal Music Group, Shontelle's label was shut down and she was moved to Republic Records.

In 2014, Shontelle gave an interview saying that things had progressed with the writing of her album, which meant that instead of being the lead single, 'Put Me On Blast' would act as a buzz track and a mission statement.

'We don't wanna do just this minute album, like here's another album,' she explained to NationNews Barbados. 'We want it to be like a whole movement, a whole project. ['Put Me On Blast'] is almost going to be like my theme song, my superhero song.' In the same interview, Shontelle stated that her new single was actually produced by DJ Khaled and that it was a 'club anthem'.

Later in 2014, Shontelle's name disappeared from Republic Records' roster. Uploading a new press shot to Facebook on May 4, 2014, the singer wrote 'Just warming up. #newmusic #comingsoon'. This would be Shontelle's last Facebook post for over a year.

In June 2015, The Source reported that Shontelle had signed a new deal with SMH Entertainment, and that the singer was working on a new album that was due for release that same year. At the time, Shontelle seemed pretty pumped about this new chapter.

'My decision to team up with SMH comes mainly from a combination of my trust in my team and strong recommendations coming from key players in my career to date and my own research,' she said

Mike Smith, the owner of SMH, echoed these sentiments. 'I am so excited to see her go to the next level with us,' he said. 'Shontelle is truly gifted. I'm extremely excited about the opportunity to be able to go in the studio with her and having the opportunity to work with her as a songwriter as well.'

In spite of this, nothing materialised, and on New Year's Eve, the singer wrote a candid and lengthy Instagram message about 2015. 'This has probably been the most difficult and challenging year for me as far as my music and personal life go,' she wrote. 'But there have also been some incredible blessings of moments and events which I have also enjoyed that pretty much make them all negligible.'

Continuing, she added: '2016 will be filled with more highs than lows and I have so much to share. We all have the power to write our own story and 2016 begins a new chapter.'

So where exactly is Shontelle now? Well, this summer she released a trance-y song, 'Just Breathe', with Burkina and Eddzaa. Nevertheless, it's unknown whether Shontelle is still signed to SMH or has plans to release her third album. Perhaps 2016 is the year that Shontelle's luck begins to change. It's not impossible…
