After becoming comfortable in her musical surrounding, at the age of 17 Courtney got up the urge to start recording her own material. After hearing the young songbirds demo, Universal Records invited Courtney to New York to meet with her and potentially discuss her future. Feeling she wasn’t ready at the time, she was still offered her an internship to learn the inner workings of the music industry.
Around 2007, Artists started using the internet and social media to develop their own brands and just like other early Artists like Wiz Khalifa, Wale and others, Courtney took to the internet to reach millions around the world and display her talents.
Showing and proving she had developed her music like she said she would, the same A&R she interned with in New York, decided it was her time and brought her into his fold like he said he would, with the newly developed Brookland Entertainment, which was home to artists with such household names as Lil Kim, August Rigo and The Trackmasters. Unfortunately due to creative differences Courtney felt it was best to part ways with Brookland Entertainment.
After leaving New York, Courtney then moved back to Pittsburgh to start her journey over once more, which may have been the blessing she needed, while home recording she ran into a child hood friend and up and coming rapper Wiz Khalifa. Wiz was making a name for himself and was very impressed with Courtney’s music and sound, so much that he featured her on his break out mixtape Prince of the City Vol. 2 on the popular track “Bank Roll” co-written by Courtney herself.
They say good things come in threes, and Courtney’s journey may have finally paid off when during Wiz Khalifa’s 2010 Wake and Bake tour, he asked Courtney to join the him on the to perform bankroll, which later led to her signing to his newly developed Taylor Gang imprint, and even a feature on his chart topping album O.N.I.F.C on the upbeat track “Got Everything”.
Courtney Noelle is currently working on her Love on the Run Mixtape which includes features from label mates, Chevy Woods, Juicy J, and of course TGOD Captain Wiz Khalifa. In the mean time her current body of work Wishing on a Star is available for download and she can be seen on tour with the rest of her Taylor Gang cohorts on the Under The Influence of Music 2 Tour.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But I just think I should really take my time
'Cause my heart's been broken
He ripped it up, he let me down
My scars are open
So I was hoping you might be different
Tell me that you're different, babe, babe
Tell me what's on your mind
Tell me you got the time
Tell me if I'm on your mind
Tell me like all the time
'Cause I gotta be for sure
You won't never let me go
'Cause I'm giving you a chance at my love
Giving you a chance at my love
Giving you a chance at my love
My love, my love
I'm giving you a chance at my love
Giving you a chance at my love
Giving you a chance at my love
My love, my love
I hope you know I'm not tryna make this hard
But I don't know if I can let down my guard
'Cause he hurt me, baby
He let me down, he let me while
My heart was breaking
So I'm just taking my time to be sure
You're not like the one before
So tell me
Tell me what's on your mind
Tell me you got the time
Tell me if I'm on your mind
Tell me like all the time

The song "Chance" by Courtney Noelle is about her reluctance to give her heart away again after a previous romantic disappointment. She is hoping that the current person she is interested in is different from her former partner, who hurt her badly. She wants to know if he is genuinely interested in her and is willing to put in the effort to make their relationship work. She is essentially asking him to prove himself to her before she takes things further.
Courtney sings about her fears and insecurities, which are amplified by her previous heartbreak. She has now become more guarded with her emotions, and she wants to know if the person who is trying to win her heart is worth the risk. The lyrics convey her desire for honesty and transparency in the relationship, and she is looking for reassurance and permanence from her potential partner.
In summary, "Chance" is a song that speaks to the caution and skepticism people feel after experiencing heartbreak. It's a call for patience, understanding, and emotional honesty between two people who are trying to build something genuine.
