Question: What kind of music did Firework's artist make before getting into pop?

<P0-S0> Getting Somewhere is the fifth studio album by singer/songwriter Allison Moorer. <P0-S1>  The album was produced by Moorer's new husband and fellow singer/songwriter Steve Earle and recorded in Nashville. <P0-S2>  Written on the road while touring with Earle, it saw her embrace a more pop sound and became her first album where the majority of songs were written solely by Moorer. <P0-S3>  She told PopMatters in 2004: "Some of the records I’ve made have had a lot of cooks, for lack of a better word. <P0-S4>  This one basically was just me and Steve, and I had written all the songs while he was around. <P0-S5>  We were on the road together, and so he had a ringside seat for the whole writing of it. <P0-S6>  So when we went in to make the record in December, it was kind of just a given what we were going to do." <SEP> <P1-S0> Katheryn Elizabeth Hudson (born October 25, 1984), known professionally as Katy Perry, is an American singer and songwriter. <P1-S1>  After singing in church during her childhood, she pursued a career in gospel music as a teenager. <P1-S2>  Perry signed with Red Hill Records and released her debut studio album "Katy Hudson" under her birth name in 2001, which was commercially unsuccessful. <P1-S3>  She moved to Los Angeles the following year to venture into secular music after Red Hill ceased operations and she subsequently began working with producers Glen Ballard, Dr. Luke, and Max Martin. <P1-S4>  After adopting the stage name Katy Perry and being dropped by The Island Def Jam Music Group and Columbia Records, she signed a recording contract with Capitol Records in April 2007. <SEP> <P2-S0>  Perry co-wrote the song with Ester Dean and its producers StarGate and Sandy Vee. <P2-S1>  It is a dance-pop self-empowerment anthem with inspirational lyrics, and Perry felt it was an important song for her on "Teenage Dream". <P2-S2>  Capitol Records released it as the album's third single on October 26, 2010. <P2-S3> "Firework" is a song by American singer Katy Perry from her third studio album, "Teenage Dream" (2010). <SEP> <P3-S0> "Make Your Own Kind of Music" is a pop song written by Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil, first recorded in 1968 by the New York City-based trio the Will-O-Bees (Janet Blossom, Steven Porter, and Robert Merchanthouse), who regularly performed Mann/Weil compositions. <P3-S1>  After Cass Elliot had a hit in the summer of 1969 with Mann/Weil's "It's Getting Better", she recorded "Make Your Own Kind of Music" as the follow-up single, and her album "Bubblegum, Lemonade, and... Something for Mama" was re-released as "Make Your Own Kind Of Music/It's Getting Better," the title cut having been added to the original track listing. <P3-S2>  However, Elliot's "Make Your Own Kind of Music" single only just reached the Top 40 at #36. <P3-S3>  The similar chart impact of the follow-up single, another Mann/Weil composition entitled "New World Coming," which reached #42, signaled Elliot's challenges in maintaining a profile as a current hitmaker, as the 1960s turned into the 1970s. <P3-S4>  The Cass Elliot track is in the key of E major.
