New York, NY (Top40 Charts/ PLA Media) I Hate My Boyfriend, Corey Wagar's second single off of her debut album, On The Edge, is enjoying success since its radio release in September. The hot girl-power anthem dedicated to independence was co-written by Corey, who had a hand in writing all 15 original tunes featured on On The Edge.
Inspired by her real life, I Hate My Boyfriend was penned to remind girls that even when they are in a relationship, one should never falter in their own self image and belief. "Although I was feeling like I Hate My Boyfriend at that time, I couldn't help but think about how many times I heard this phrase from other girls," remembers the eighteen year old New Jersey native. "I was talking to Preston Brust of LoCash Cowboys and songwriter/guitarist
Gordon Brown and before we knew it, we had the song written."
Critics seem to enjoy this fiery tune as much as Corey's fans, praising her for her performances and for her ability to connect with her audience.
