Breakout star Jessie J celebrated her #1 charting on the BBC’s Sound of 2011 tally this week by performing an exclusive set for their radio arm.
Check out the singer-songwriter’s rousing performances of current smash ‘Do It Like A Dude’, album title track ‘Who You Are’, and ‘Big White Room’.
We here at That Grape Juice are thirsty for this album. In the meanwhile, we’ll have to tide ourselves over with great performances such as those below. Check them out, as well as an extensive interview, after the jump…
she’s just too dope, i dont even have to listen and i already know its good
i love her, too fresh with her attitude as well. She isn’t trying to portray herself as bitchy or s*** either, inna de ghetto an all that. I want to listen to what shes got to say, i cant wait for the album
She is absolutely amazing !!!!!! REAL TALENT HERE
I LOVE HEEER !!
She killed it on “Who you are” , i’m glad I saw her Live b’fore fame .
this chick is dope.anyway i read a funny article on rihanna at http://kelsnetwork.b*******.com all rihanna stans and h8ters shud check it out
She’s mediocre and over hyped, Do It Like A Dude is a weak song.
Where is britney’s single?
Who You Are is so much better than DILAD. I love this girl, she can soing!
She is amazing and is a perfect example of UK talent.
soooooo where are all the black british females that can sing?………
I kinda like her, but her facial expressions are a little annoying.
i LOVE her facial expressions, keeps her real
TEAMJESSIEJ
She’s a boss.
Loves it
…Speaking ’bout the B**…
Idris Elba is currently on B** America (as I’m type this). He starred in a 6-episode-long mini-series: “Luther”.
Idris Elba is a FANTASTIC ACTOR…!!
..Just sayin’…..
X,Y,”and Z” — OUT…!!
I LOVE HER, i hope that 2011 is her year!
btw, she looks really pretty in the 4th video, i like her hair like that!
LOVE HER !!!!!!!!!
Jessie J does not do it any better than Cherri V, Shystie, Mz Dynamite, Jazmine Sullivan, Janelle yet she is put on a pedastal, I wonder why.
UK record labels are only interested in represented BLACK music as long as its fronted by a white face! simple.! Adele, Amy Winehouse, duffy, jessie j, Lily Allen, paloma faith, emma b, its fast becoming a joke!
Katy B not emma B my bad! but you get my point!
UK stand up!!! You can tell she has been studying and listening tp RnB/Soul and Country music!! And a lot of Beyoncè and Pink!!! Gotta love her!! ^^^ the comment above: I get where your coming from, but where are you heading with this^^^^ Anywayz she is amazing, I give her props cuz its hard to find famous singers who actually have TALENT!!
Very valid point UKKINGSMAN. I never really saw it like that. I used to comment that back in the day nearly all bands had the token Black member to appeal to RnB audiences. All Saints, Another Level, Blue but now women dominate the industry and you’re right, Black musicians aren’t anywhere to be seen.
Oh well, until we really get behind our own, (like set up a Motown) we’ll always be here. Berry Gordy saw the truth in your comment 50 years ago!
marvelouuuuuus! i love it you’re soooo talented!! im glade to see real artist with talent get famous not like a lot of gimmicks! i never desappointed on uk artists, they always have real talent come out like gorillaz, led zep, pink floyd, beattles, amy… so i don’t get it how they can support industry puppets like that femal generic wanna be original singer always singing “oh nah nah nah”!!!
love her
😛 😛 😛 I love this, I love my boy friend. He is a nice guy.
i met him via —–B lack Wh ite F li rts. C” 0- M—— it gives you a chance to make your life better and open oppor-tunities for you to meet the at-tractive sin gles and tr-eat you like a king or Q-ueen. Maybe you wanna check it out or tell your friends !!!
I really like her, she reminds me a lot of Pink.
BTW, does anyone else think that “Big White Room” sort of sounds like “Thinking of You” by Katy Perry?
@ True blue
Jessie wrote big white room when she was 17 started performing it on her youtube page in 2007..Perry wrote thinking of you in 2008 and released it 2009 so you do the math.
^^^ I didn’t say anything about it being a ripoff of “Thinking of You”, I said it SOUNDS like “Thinking of You”. I do know that two songs can sound alike without the similarities being intentional.
shes amazing real talent who you are is such a great song
THIS GRIL IS BAD!! I DON’T CARE WHAT NO ONE SAY!!
I LOVE HER I LOVE HER
I LOVER HER
MICHEAL JACKSON IS BACK AND HIS ALBUM IS IN STORES NOW!!!!!GO CHECK OUT HIS VIDEO FEAT AKON “HOLD MY HAND” EXCLUSIVELY HERE>>>>>http://bit.ly/efLiPq
I agree with @UKKINGSMAN
only allowing whites girls to release ‘urban’ music in the UK is a shame! yes Jessie is very talented but why is it OK for record labels to only push ‘urban’ sounding music as long as a white girl is fronting it? the Uk music industry makes me sick, racist wankers!
lets see,
Adele
Amy winehouse
Natasha beddingfield
Katy B
Lily Allen
Duffy
Jessie J
Eliza doolittle
Paloma Faith
the list goes on and on…….
@SCOTT @UKKINGSMAN
Deep. Whilst I love Jessie J, you definitely gave me food for thought just then. Sad.
Best artist ive seen from the UK recently nearly everyone is shite at the moment
I agree with the other comments, the hype surrounding this girl is ridiculous. If this song was done by a black girl the video would only be on channel U (or whatever its called now). The UK music biz LOVES to flash these white girls in our faces doing RnB then alexandra burke is there doing some undernourished tunes about angels. Cher Lloyd is signed by Jay Z meanwhile rebecca will fade into obscurity despite being runner up and having the better voice. I’m over it, can’t be bothered to pretend that it’s cool. It’s effed up man.
Um. I think she has a great voice and is talented but I dont like the songs. “Do it like a dude” is weak. I dont think she pulls it off.She doesn’t have that star factor to me. Idk. She doesnt excite me. Im from the US btw. I would be so sad if she makes it mainstream in the us before Alexandra burke. Ive been waiting for alexandra to come over here for so long!
