Label Mercury
Release Date Aug 11, 2009

21 year-old Georgia newcomer Jessie James was lucky enough to get signed quickly shortly after releasing her demo recordings. They made their way to David Massey, president of Mercury Records which lead to her contract with Island/Def Jam. She quickly went to work on her debut album and released "Wanted" as her first single. It has peaked to #22 on the Pop 100 and #67 on the Billboard Hot 100. As for the album she delivers her pop/country sound with tracks reminiscent of hits from late-'90s pop acts. James has a voice that works with both genres and she mixes them well bringing a charged attitude to each track. It's a nice effort and I'm interested in seeing where this takes her. Check it out and BUY YOUR COPY AUGUST 11TH!!

Diva outlaw Jessie James first caught a flash of attention with the hoedown-meets-crunk-jam "Blue Jeans." The call-and-response ode to the apparel's curves featured prominently in the 2009 summer movie CONFESSIONS OF A SHOPAHOLIC, and its offbeat ... Full Descriptionsensual drive and girl power themes stirred a minor buzz. Her self-titled debut, released later that same year, featuring said track, continues to frolic in the gulf between sultry-sweet pop strut and country girl coyness. However, while James is not averse to basking in a classic Nashville theme, as on "My Cowboy" or the Katy Perry co-penned "Bullet," or throw in a sizzling banjo in at the bridge, she is at heart a pop singer. Tracks like opening single "Wanted" and "Girl Next Door" bask in gigantic hooks as James hurls her soul into the simple, seductive rockers.
