Even though the talentless still reign supreme, the successes of vocal divas as of late is reassurance that there is hope yet. For, without question, what the industry has ‘needed badly’ would be the prowess of a vocalist comparable to that of ‘Need U Bad’ beauty Jazmine Sullivan.
Last year may have seen the 24-year-old announce an ill-received departure from music, but now fans can rejoice at this weekend’s Twitter announcement:
(click to enlarge)
*insert excitement here!*
While not completely mute on the musical tip as recent months have seen her lend the pen to Monica‘s ‘Until Its Gone’ and other R&B numbers, we at TGJ still are ready for Sullivan to make her own splash on charts. Overlooked gems from the singer’s sophomore album ‘Love Me Back’ are still on CONSTANT repeat at TGJ headquarters!

Ok let’s be real she is not gonna come anywhere near Adele success. Ppl need to respect other ppl opinion. For instance I think jazmine can sing but I will never buy her music because she ain’t interesting to me. In this world u can call those like Rihanna and gaga and jazmine untalented but in reality they all are. Everyone listens through different ears and see through different eyes. I like Keri hilson and Rihanna over jazmine but others may like jazmine more. Jazmine needs to appeal to a bigger audience.
Jazmine 1st album is just now approaching gold status in the u.s. if I’m not mistaking.

Hold up! What does her weight have to do with anything? People are so obsessed with looks it’s ridiculous. I don’t give a damn how much she weighs. As long as she keeps delivering that great music, all is well.

If Adele doesn’t have to lose weight then why should Jazmine? Honestly Jaz sings way better than Adele but Adele gets the spotlight because she is blue eyed soul.

still , this bitch need to lose weight , and no one will compare her to adele. i think when you are black , your chances to be a big star is minimized to the half ” and i am not racist , and not american , i just say it as i see it ” , untalented white artists are bigger superstars than their black competitors. so what if you are white and got a great talent as adele , of course being the shit is expected !! huh ?!
and looks matter and sex-sells in this ugly world no matter what u say . so being black and fat won’t help her. look at jennifer hudson for example !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and losing weight will be great for her health in general. and maybe will affect her career positively !!
seriously , what she got in hands to lose beside her weight ?!!! NOTHING !!
and i think she got a great voice. but she need to UPgrade her look as a bonus. and of course she want to be famous and to be on magazines covers , or she wanna live her entire life as a c- artist who can blame her failures on her weight and being black ?!
being black is great and a lot of black female artists are respected , so her race is not the problem, but being overweight is no good , in this industry and in general. so losing weight is A MUST FOR HER.
done giving her her (15 seconds-for a basic bitch) of the day.

Power House Vocalist, great Song Writer, and a force in the
Music Industry. Every one with a working brain know how
Great Adele is but Adele has her own Lane and so does Jas
and no one is taking any others place because as plain as
day no one can occupy TWO SPACES ARE PLACES at the
same time. Only simple minded, and air brains even think
that one artist can take another’s place the lames or hooked
on stupid and there’s no other way to explain it. Jas is going
to give some well known so called best of the best in the US
the Night Mare on elm street with her Return, Jas will get tons
of Support for her Offering!!!!!!!!

Oh and by the way Jasmine Sullivan can blow Adelephant out of the water with her voice who is a church singer. Oh and by I’m pretty sure Adelephant weighs more than Jasmine Sullivan who isn’t FAT just voluptous and curvy.
I’m a BIG fan of jasmine sullivan so hopefully her comeback is worth it. R&B is dead in this life cycle but I’ll always love me some R&B. I’m a true sista. Not having some R&B in my life is like not ever eating soulfood. I NEED IT. Plz come back jasmine and don’t scare us again saying you’re gonna quit music.
Love ya and “luv me back” with those sweet vocals.

@ girrl
I love Jazmine and I will support her but please dont say the only reason Adele gets more attention is b/c she is blue eyed. ….
Adele is a MUCH BETTER songwriter than Jaz. Alicia Key, Sade & Lauryn Hill are black soul and they had no problems going multiplatinum because they are good songwriters….. especially Sade & Lauryn Hill
Jazmine is a good songwriter but not great, she needs co-writers like Adele & Alicia and she will grow. She also needs some live instruments on her songs with that beautiful voice.
R&B is suffering right now because of the HORRIBLE songwriting these days. I think Neyo & Bruno Mars are talented writers but R&B needs more writers . No one is creating classics except Adele right now.
I hope she kills it cuz I love that voice…. Im glad she is back and I want a VH1 unplugged or AOL live sessions from her.
