August 18, 20222 yr Author Looks like she'll be going down the collabing route first! @1560221767251234816 Jax Jones is v v hit & meh for me. But hoping it'll be more hit with Jade on board obvz.
August 18, 20222 yr Ooh this could be really good. Jax Jones can be hit and miss for me but I tend to like the ones that feature artists I like. With that in mind I’m sure I’ll like this.
August 18, 20222 yr Jax has been good in the past, but also really ropey (especially these days). Please be good!
August 19, 20222 yr it just screams that the label are not confident if they lead a solo career with a collab.. i mean look at her former band mate.
August 19, 20222 yr Author it just screams that the label are not confident if they lead a solo career with a collab.. i mean look at her former band mate.Huh? It doesn't scream anything of the sort? Lol. It's just a smart way of getting your name out there as a soloist, before releasing your own material. This will likely be a Jax Jones single more than a Jade feat. Jax Jones kinda single, anyway. Mel C and Emma Bunton literally did the same thing by collabing with someone before their proper solo releases :lol: Jesy went straight for the Mel B approach, but unfortunately for her, it backfired. Anyway, this way, she can release collabs with people whilst Perrie and Leigh embark on their solo journies first and then she'll have a decent enough profile, instead of just sitting at home biding her time to release her own material... This is a completely different approach compared to "her former band mate". Plus, Jade is actually a fan-favourite personality.
August 19, 20222 yr is it a smart move or piggy backing on the helm of a semi-established name in the hopes of a hit???
August 19, 20222 yr I'd rather her first release was a solo single tbh. I'm sure it will be a nice, faceless, generic Capital FM style bop that will go top 15 but I feel like her own release would be more of a moment. Meh.
August 19, 20222 yr Releasing a dance Collab is by far the way to go initially (Especially for Jade) Build the momentum and help generate streaming support for future releases off the back of an dance hit. Excited!!!!
August 19, 20222 yr for me - debuting as a Jax feature puts her in the same field as Ella Henderson, Mabel, Raye (prior to 'Hard Out Here), Becky Hill where they obviously have a small fan base but the majority of their hits aren't based on their contribution.
August 19, 20222 yr Jades second single will need to be solo with no features to carve out a solo name but a career can be successful as a feature artist.
August 19, 20222 yr I hope she sticks to a solo song as her first track. The collabs can come later cause you only get one debut single. Edited August 19, 20222 yr by Frenchie
August 22, 20222 yr the article doesn't even mention when it's coming, it just says it'll be coming eventually + since Jade is debuting in 2023, it won't be for a while. for all we know her lead will be a solo song (considering some people have heard it) and the Jax Jones collab will either be a second single / EP track or something. also lol, collabs for group members going solo as their debut song is NOT out of the ordinary, so lets not act as if it's a desperate plea for a hit when non of LM3 have even got started yet.
August 23, 20222 yr Releasing a collab first makes total sense. It puts her name out in the public eye and charts as a solo artist while she spends time creating her own sound.
