Various Artists - Pitch Perfect 2: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack Album Review


After the success of the first 'Pitch Perfect' and, more specifically, the 'Cup' song, the soundtrack for the sequel has a lot to live up to. However, there is a thing as trying to be too clever and here is a perfect example. 

Various Artists - Pitch Perfect 2 Soundtrack Album Review

By trying to cram even more songs into each a cappella mash-up, some tracks just don't work without the visual aid of the movie and it becomes a race to recognize just what has been used. Two/three lines and it is on to the next song. 'Riff Off' starts off enjoyable, with a cover of 'Thong Song', but then goes through a circle of booty-complimenting tracks at a dizzying speed where it confuses and loses itself. A better example of a mash-up would be The Barden Bella's 'World Championship Finale' as you can clearly hear each tune used throughout.

The song that leads the entire soundtrack - also the lead single - is Jessie J's 'Flashlight' written by Sam Smith and Sia. By far the most memorable, it is a highlight to the album and is what will keep people coming back to listen to it. An inspirational ballad, it is by far one of Jessie J's best singles, but as the success of Anna Kendrick and 'Cups' showed, a big star isn't always needed to get radio play time. There is also a surprise performance from Snoop Dogg and Anna Kendrick, which is a nice way to break up the a cappella sound of the album. The other original track is 'Crazy Youngsters' performed by Ester Dean, which adds a modern and more 'pop' sound to the soundtrack. These 3 tracks are undeniably stand-out numbers in an otherwise very predictable album.

Jessie J Angers Fans In Twitter Cull


Jessie J

Jessie J has angered her loyal fans by unfollowing every single one of them on Twitter – and then being rude about it afterwards.

According to Reuters, at the start of the week (beginning April 27th) the former judge on 'The Voice' was following 885 people on the microblogging site, but that numbers started to steadily go downwards. By Thursday morning, her account read ‘@JessieJ isn’t following anyone yet’. Suffice to say, her fans were not best pleased.

Jessie J Was Bullied At School After Medication Made Her 'Look Like An Alien'


Jessie J

Pop star Jessie J has spoken about some of the hardships she went through as a child, including when she was bullied because some prescribed medication made her skin turn green.

The 26 year old star told BBC Radio 1 that the drugs to normalise her heartbeat, after she was diagnosed as a child with a heart defect, “didn’t work” and gave her skin an “alien tint”. She spent a great deal of her childhood in hospital, and this experience was the inspiration for her first song ‘Big White Room’.

Jessie J Ariana Grande Nicki Minaj

Since Jessie J caused some serious buzz with her hit single 'Bang Bang' featuring US artists Ariana Grande and Nicki Minaj earlier this year, it's only right that she pump up the hype in the UK with a six-date tour this Winter.

The pop sensation landed her first ever US number one - and third UK number one - with the summer anthem 'Bang Bang'; a single which spectacularly propelled her back to the forefront of mainstream pop music and led the subsequent album 'Sweet Talker'. The record is her best-selling album in the US and marks her move to Republic Records, but the singer is still keen to maintain her UK fans and will entertain her native country with a week-long O2 tour in January 2015.

Jessie J's 'Sweet Talker' - Will It Succeed In America?


Jessie J

Its only been a few years since UK pop songstress Jessie J broke U.S. ground with her hit single, 'Domino,' and it felt like she would be one of those artists that would never fade away. She hasn't exactly disappeared, but her newest record, Sweet Talker, could make or break the relevance she has in America.

Jessie J PhotoJessie J released her third album, Sweet Talker, this week

'Domino,' which was released in 2011 and peaked at number six on the Billboard 200 chart, was pop gold, and it appeared as if she was on her way to being a household name. However, another single never charted, and the buzz for her debut record, Who Are You, eventually fizzled out. It's alright though - there's always the second album, right? Well, not really.

Jessie J Talks Nude Photo Leak As 'Bang Bang' Heads Towards UK Number One Spot

Jessie J has given her opinion on the recent celebrity photo hacks, branding them “disgusting” in an appearance on Alan Carr’s talk show ‘Chatty Man’. The singer, whose latest single ‘Bang Bang’ was released this week in the UK, does however feel that celebrities should be more cautious and think that their intimate photos may end up being "put out there".

Speaking about the recent scandal, which saw celebrities such as Jennifer Lawrence, Kim Kardashian and Kate Upton’s intimate photos surface online, the singer said "You know what's funny, I got asked my opinion - I didn't even want to talk about this, but hey - someone was like, 'What do you think about it?' and I was like, 'Well...I've been in a lot of long-distance relationships, and as a woman, you need to throw down some stuff to make sure you hold down your man, right?”

Jessie J Is Upping Sticks To L.A Because She's Underappreciated In The U.K


Jessie J

Jessie J can’t stand the constant exploration of her private life, questions about her sexuality and not being taken seriously as a singer in the U.K. So she’s decided to leave London for L.A, somehow arriving at the assumption that none of those things will happen there...

Jessie JJessie J

"In America they see me as a singer whereas here I feel that people don't appreciate my voice. I've dedicated my life to singing and I want it to be taken seriously,” she explained in a recent interview with The Mail on Sunday. "Here it seems that all people want to know is what I've had for breakfast and who I'm sleeping with."

The line-up for MTV's VMAs has been announced, and now it's time to take bets as to whether this year will serve as any less controversial than last year, following the infamous 'Miley-gate' incident. The performing artists include Jessie J, Nicki Minaj, Ariana Grande Usher, 5 Seconds of Summer, Maroon 5, Beyonce, Taylor Swift and Sam Smith.

Last year's MTV Video Music Awards sparked off some controversy due to Miley Cyrus' 'seductive' twerking on the then married Robin Thicke while wearing only her underwear and making provocative gestures with a giant foam finger. Then again, controversy is big money these days so if anything, the draw of this year's VMAs is seeing if they will top last year's antics.

After 'Bang Bang,' What Are Some Of The Best Triple Threat Pop Songs?


Jessie J Nicki Minaj Ariana Grande Timbaland Justin Timberlake

The only thing better than one pop star on a song is three, right? How about a combination of Jessie J, Ariana Grande, and Nicki Minaj - ALL on one track? It's what we got with the newly released 'Bang Bang' single, and it's proving that songs like these need to be happen more often.

Bang Bang Group'Bang Bang' was released on July 29

Released this week, the single featuring Jessie, Nicki, and Ari is an easy frontrunner for "Song of the Summer," and hell, maybe even pop song of the year. It'll be included on Jessie J's upcoming album this fall, as well as in the deluxe edition of Grande's new record, My Everything, so 'Bang Bang' isn't going away anytime soon. But what makes it so great? A mix of all the unique qualities in the girls - Jessie's explosive vocals, Grande's sassy croon, and Minaj's signature fierce rap verse makes for a track that only gets better with every listen. Coupled with the glossy production of mastermind producer Max Martin, 'Bang Bang' simply can't not be a hit. It's even being touted as 'Lady Marmalade 2.0' - the juggernaut number one smash in 2004 that featured Christina Aguilera, Lil' Kim, Mya, and Pink. Arguably, 'Bang Bang' outshines that track in every way possible, and having three vs. four is just easier to listen to. With that said, which songs are the best triple threats in pop music over the past couple of years?

Jessie J, Ariana Grande, And Nicki Minaj Link Up For 'Bang Bang' Single


Jessie J Ariana Grande Nicki Minaj

What happens when three of the biggest names in pop music all have albums coming out soon? You put them together to make a collaborative single, of course. Jessie J, Nicki Minaj, and Ariana Grande linked up to create their brand new single, 'Bang Bang,' and it sounds better than you'd ever expect.

Jessie J Performing'Bang Bang' will be included on Jessie J's upcoming album

'Bang Bang' is proof that just because it's almost August doesn't mean the title for "Song of the Summer" still isn't up for grabs. Produced by Max Martin, Savan Kotecha, and Ilya Salmanzadeh - the crew behind Ariana Grande's 'Problem' - the track is an absolute smash that shows the best qualities of Jessie J, Grande, and Minaj. The song is going to serve as an album track off Jessie J's upcoming album set for release later this fall. After the disappointing sales numbers for her last record, Alive, Jessie J was in the studio hard at work earlier this year for album number three. Alive never even saw a U.S. release, so the fact that this may be her record's lead single could bode well for the record's chart potential in the future.

Jessie J's New Single "Bang Bang" Is A Summer Playlist Staple


Jessie J Ariana Grande Nicki Minaj

Ariana Grande is checking off rap babes to collaborate with one by one. Grande is on Jessie J’s new single Bang Bang, along with Nicki Minaj. The single premiered on Monday, a day before it became available for purchase. The catchy summer tune is part of Jessie’s upcoming album – yet to receive a cover and a name – and will also be featured as a bonus track on the deluxe editions of Ariana's own upcoming record My Everything. So get ready to hear this song everywhere this summer. Not that anyone minds, of course.

The rap queen posted a caricature of the three divas in leather gear, brandishing guns like a trio of kick-ass futuristic space warriors… or something. It looked cool, anyway.

Jessie J Prepares 3rd Album; No 'Alive' U.S. Release In Sight


Jessie J Jason Derulo

When Jessie J’s Instagram and Twitter posts began donning a “#jessiejalbum3” hashtag, it rightfully brought excitement to her fanbase -- but maybe a little confusion, too, at least for the fans over in the United States. Back in January 2014, Jessie J pulled out of a tour with Robin Thicke in order to complete a version of Alive with new tracks made specifically for an American market. However, it’s now nearly mid-way through the year, and any information regarding new music at all has just referred to an Alive follow-up.

Originally released in the UK in September 2013, Alive debuted at #3 on the UK album charts, but ultimately was a disappointment commercially, and that’s something Jessie J even admits herself.
