A new feature!!! Hot and fresh!!! And it should be cause new, emerging breakthrough acts will be featured in this section.
First up is Jada, an American girl group from Boston, Massachusetts. The group is currently signed to Motown/Universal. The group consists of Elle Wine, April Forrest, Lauren O'Keefe and Jacyn Tremblay.
Now a little on the group's history. They were signed to Motown/Universal in the year 2006. But to date, the girls have yet to release an album with the label. The genres that the girls do are pop and R&B. It is reported that since signing with the label, the girls have worked with J.R. Rotem, Dallas Austin, Swizz Beats, RedOne, Akon, Ryan Tedder, Toby Gad and Wyclef Jean among others. Sounds good with these big name producers on town and the experience accumulated.
They have a song released previously in late 2007 on the "Bring It On: In It to Win It" mini soundtrack titled "I'm That Chick". (Not to be confused with the Mariah Carey song of the same title) In Feb 2008, Jada appeared with JoJo (Remember "Too little, Too late") at the Ultimate Prom, organised by Seventeen Magazine i guess. And some time in 2008, producers The Clutch and Danja have produced a song for Jada titled, Denial, and performed the song live on TV. The girls have also won Outstanding Pop/R&B Act Of The Year award on Dec 9th 2008. A first award for the girls, even though there isn't an album or a single on tow yet. Ironic or impressive. Hmmm.
Jada's debut single, "American Cowboy", was released on iTunes on March 31st. Written and produced by Akon and RedOne, known due to the shoutout hook in the beginning of the song, this song is quite a banger. Quite catchy for a first single though. The video of "American Cowboy" was released on April 25th. Their debut album would most likely release sometime in June 2009, according to sources.
On a first thought, Jada links me to Jada Pinkett-Smith (Will Smith's wife), of which that they aint related at all. This girl group sounds promising, with the demise of Danity Kane and PCD is threading on thin ice, they might shine. Obviously with proper promotion and stuff, and the right songs to boot, Jada is on the alert list now. =)
