JADE - "Fantasy" + Debut Album

Surely coming this year now.


I don’t want to have to wait until the last week of the year but I’ve thought about the possibility of announcing the album on her birthday (December 26th).

I understand her announcing something on her birthday, but isn’t the week following Christmas notorious for being a slow week music wise and having no new releases with most of the record industry off work for the holidays?
 
I do think being on the pre-new year playlists would be quite a good strategy for a buzz track but in all honesty, I have no idea how the industry operates during this time, maybe less competition from other releases could be good?

Or do people still just play Xmas songs until the new year? (I certainly don't)

The Christmas songs kind of die off right away.

Usually, any non Christmas songs that have managed to stay charting high during the Christmas period are the ones with a chance of being the first #1 of the new year.

I always remember Sweet Melody managing to hover in the Top 10 throughout Christmas and then going straight to Number 1 the first week of January.

A pop justice indeed.
 
She’s mentioned a couple times how she thought of changing TSB’s (the track) title to It Girl. Let’s hope she didn’t do it for the album instead. I find It Girl a bit tacky as an album title.

Yeah, I don’t like It Girl as an album title at all. It works better as a song, but also would hate that too when “That’s Showbiz, Baby!” is so much more interesting in every way.

In any case, I definitely think we aren’t getting any announcement until January now. Probably with the song. At least we have a somewhat solid date to look forward to instead of speculating week after week.
