Jessie J Returns with New Single, ‘No Secrets’
BRIT award-winning, multi-platinum selling artist Jessie J makes her highly anticipated return with ‘No Secrets’, her first release in four years. This will be followed by her first single, ‘Living My Best Life’, produced by Ryan Tedder (OneRepublic), out Friday, May 16 via Darco Artist Partnerships (D.A.P).
‘No Secrets’ is a deeply personal, open invitation into the highs and lows of Jessie J’s life over the past few years. Confronting themes of loss, trauma and the impact of social media, poking fun at oversharing, the single serves as a raw and unfiltered reintroduction to one of the most successful and recognisable voices in British music. Produced by Los Hendrix (SZA, Brent Faiyaz) and Jesse Boykins III, the track sees Jessie J embracing her alt-R&B sound, with her signature powerhouse vocals and soul-baring lyricism commanding attention from the very first heartfelt line.
Jessie J speaking about ‘No Secrets’:
“This song is super personal, but I hope it can be relative to anyone’s life. I’m a very honest person; I say it how it is, and I share a lot of things with the world that most people don’t, but always with a little humour. Humour is key – the music has really gotten me through.”
In contrast, ‘Living My Best Life’ is Jessie J’s pure celebration of positivity and joy. The exuberant Tedder throwback ‘Living My Best Life’ came to Jessie J while driving through LA, the best of Whitney and Prince rebounding about her jeep.
On ‘Living My Best Life’ Jessie J says:
“I love the sense of moving upwards, so ‘Living My Best Life’ has that same feeling. It feels timeless, classic, 80s. It makes you want to dance.”
