Former Little Mix member Jesy Nelson is strutting forward solo and it looks like she has global ambitions.
Because, fresh from signing with Polydor Records in the UK, the Brit-bred Pop star has reportedly inked a lucrative US record deal too.
Full story below…
Per The Sun, Nelson recently on-boarded the roster of Republic Records – home of Pop heavy-hitters like Ariana Grande and Taylor Swift.
Both Polydor and Republic sit under the Universal Music umbrella and are largely considered their regional equivalents. But it’s worth noting that not all artists signed to one necessarily sign with the other. As such, it’s unquestionably a major coup for Nelson.
A source close to the deal is quoted as saying:
“Jesy never really managed to make it big in the States with Little Mix, but thanks to the deal with Republic, she’s got the best team around her.
There is a real buzz when it comes to her solo career and this single could be the thing to take her career to the next level.”
As reported, Nelson is gearing up for the debut of her first single and promised – by way of a trailer – that it’s “coming sooner than you think.”
