Taste of Honey Posted May 6 Share Posted May 6 R.O.S.E. was one of my favorite R&B releases of the last decade. She should explore that more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want nothing but R&B and pop adjacent r&b from her after falling in love with R.O.S.E. That's what her voice was made for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reginald Posted May 6 Share Posted May 6 (edited) She's huge in China, right? Who You Are is an underrated pop bible album tbh Hit after hit, bop after bop. Not to rehash tired Stan Culture talking points, but I think shaving her head (instead of keeping the iconic black bob) so early in her career messed up her image.

Pikachoo Posted May 6 Share Posted May 6 honestly, it did. She got undeserved lashings, especially from this article: It's not about the money! Jessie J leaves lucrative gig at The Voice Australia to focus on fledgling music career... before belting out 'Price Tag' in her kitchen for friends She was one of pop's biggest names for a few fleeting moments several years ago, but these days she's better known as a professional TV talent show judge. However, now Jessie J is set to say goodbye to her lucrative gig at The Voice Australia after two successful seasons to focus on her fledgling pop career instead. Speaking to the Daily Telegraph, the 28-year-old explained that it was time for her to 'get back to the music' after realizing that it had already been two years since her last hit, Bang Bang, was released. The former bisexual did two seasons on The Voice UK from 2012 to 2013, before joining the Australian version of the reality TV series last year for two seasons. While it's unclear just how much she was paid for the Channel Nine series, she reportedly pocketed $420,000 AUD per season for the UK version, and would've likely banked a similar fee Down Under. The British singer's last sizable pop hit was 2014's Bang Bang, although the majority of the track's popularity was down to its A-list co-artists, Nicki Minaj and Ariana Grande. Straight to the bargain bin: Jessie's music career has been on the decline for a few years, with her last album, Sweet Talker, yielding the lowest sales of her career Jessie's record sales have noticeably declined with each release since her debut album, Who You Are, was released to great success in 2011. Following her decision not to return to The Voice Australia, Jessie took to her Sydney kitchen to belt out some of her old hits whilst cooking dinner for her friends. Makeup-free and dressed in a tracksuit, the down-to-earth songstress delivered a rendition of her best known single, Price Tag, proving that she has yet to grow tired of the song after all these years. She's still got an audience! Despite her dwindling chart success, Jessie's closest friends were happy to hear her belt out 'Price Tag' while she cooked them dinner in her tracksuit pants 'This is how I am at home most of the time,' she wrote to her Instagram fans as she shared the video. Jessie continued: 'Tracksuit, no makeup, hat (is random but still) always cooking for everyone, singing and rehearsing as I go...'. The outspoken star confessed to Nova FM this month that she's taking her time working on her fourth studio album, which currently has no release date. 'My next album for me is so important that I cannot rush it and I rushed the last one a little bit, even though I was very lucky to have a lot of success,' she said. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dante Silva Posted May 6 Share Posted May 6 No. She was so overly self conscious about her artistry, being a technically correct singer and her own self belief that she possesses the talent to be considered one of the greatest music legends of all time. That self belief sucked the life out of any actual creativity she potentially had. What she does possess is a wide expressive vocal range but that alone did not make people warm to her when she very obviously had an ego the size of a house, which in her case was separate from raw ambition and commercial intuition (two qualities she never possessed). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expensive Taste Posted May 6 Share Posted May 6 She has a powerful voice and a few decent hits, but her albums themselves are quite dull. She throws everything into each album, and you even forget which album we're talking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nostalgic Posted May 6 Share Posted May 6 She was a good example of the "faceless" accusations that are thrown around a lot here. No clear identity that differentiated her from the rest. A few memorable bops though, Domino is a classic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
