Big News: So what the hell's up with Jessie James' sophomore album?

If you're wondering what in the world is going on with Jessie James' new music, then you're at the right place. Thank God for Twitter. On her Twitter, Jessie has promised some new music by March. The last news we've heard of Daughter of a Gypsy, her unreleased sophomore album, was its' September 28th release date this year, pushed back from August 24th. That could only be blamed for the album's lead single Boys In The Summer failing to catch on like her label/herself must've hoped would. But of course, I'd blame the label for the lack of promotion. She did play small gigs and visit radio stations though. But that's clearly not enough.

But the very, very last news we heard was Jessie going back into the studio to record more. And she must be still recording, then. Fans are speculating she might be doing Country like she's always wanted to do. Really? Hmmmm. I'm not completely sold on that one, I definitely think she's going to retain a bit of that pop sound in her music.

Also, in the same tweet, the pop/country crooner has said she's shooting for a TV show starting in January next year. Just what it could be, I have genuinely no idea.

And if you've forgotten just how amazingly talented she is, I'd like to remind you that she's not just a pretty face.

Big News: Jessie James' Daughter of a Gypsy pushed back to Spring!

I totally saw this coming. Pop/country star Jessie James often shuffles back and forth with the pop and country genres but has often stuck with the more pop side of country. So she did when she released the lead single Boys In The Summer from her sophomore effort Daughter of a Gypsy which led to a poor showing on the charts. Soon after, all news and release dates for Jessie's album were all pulled from Amazon, Wikipedia etc. and no one knew what was going on. She then tweeted out news she was heading to the studio when the album was supposed to have been finished long before. She has now confirmed that the album won't see the light of day till Spring, which means she will be competing in a very high stakes release year next year. Lady Gaga, Britney Spears, Beyonce (could be the end of the year), Mariah Carey, Adam Lambert, David Cook, Kelly Clarkson etc.

Jessie's new video just premiered on VEVO and it's called Dear John. Hmmmm.

But nevertheless, she calls the album a country record "you are going to love". Okay then.

Jessie James - Dear John [Music Video Premiere]

The music video above is for Jessie's Dear John, which since was posted on Jessie James' VEVO account on YouTube, I'm counting on it being an official release instead of some viral video (although it does look like one..) that the label is putting out to maintain at least some interest. She still looks as beautiful as ever, the song's not too bad, but I wish the chorus was just a tad more explosive. Plus, what's the deal with Daughter of a Gypsy anyway?

Big News: What's up with Jessie James' album?

First came the release date of August 24th for Jessie James' sophomore album Daughter of a Gypsy, which was eventually pushed back almost a whole month to September 28th. Then, a couple weeks ago, all news of Jessie's upcoming sophomore set was removed from sites like Wikipedia and Amazon. Then came Jessie's tweets of going into the studio to write. Remember that Jessie's album was already confirmed to have been completed. By going back into the studio, I think Jessie's label is upset Boys In The Summer didn't do as well as it should have, debuting at #16 on Billboard's Bubbling Under Hot 100 chart and thus have instructed Jessie to return to the studio to record more hits-in-the-making for the album. Oh well. Looks like we have to wait again. Well then, Mercury Records, how about booking more live televised performances for Jessie? Here's another hit gone to waste (Boys In The Summer)..
