Jessie Ware - That! Feels Good!

[Juango]

If I was Jessie and offered a well-paid, short contract for a job in Greece I would jump at the chance. It's a bit of a no-brainer.

Plus promo is promo.

I mean she almost quit music in 2017, let the woman enjoy her life.

 

[Babyface]

credibility is hard to earn but easy to loose.

Credibility doesn't pay the bills though!

 

[SlowBurn]

The reality is that she's just not as big a star as we'd all love her to be. Her husband has a normal job. If she wants to have a very comfortable lifestyle for her family now and into the future, then she's absolutely right to take these gigs. As someone already pointed out, as least she and her husband aren't actual billionaire entertainers who needlessly and regularly cross picket lines and perform in countries with appalling human rights records.

Good for her!

She already gleefully threw her ‘credibility’ out the window the day she released an Ed Sh**ran-penned single and that didn’t even pay off ddd.

Thank god. And as if to double down, Pitchfork and that nasty review of Ed’s album really got her together.

Pregnant, horny, broke, she came on What’s Your Pleasure mad as hell!

It's an easy little TV gig that'll pay for some new patio decking that Sam probably wants for summer. I'm not mad.

 

[Celestial Mosaic]

Plus we might get an ABBA cover album from her!

This post was one vowel away from making me quite hot n' heavy

Bullying works!

"Credibility" is a transient and overrated concept anyway.

Record sales are tiny, revenue from streaming is minuscule and touring is expensive. I can't speak to what she makes from her podcasts but I doubt it's life-changing money. This is a fun, well-paid, relatively easy project that needn't affect her other endeavours at all. It really is a no-brainer.

 

[Stopremix]

Have any American bebs gotten their vinyl yet?

 

[soratami]

Practically all the pop girls above a certain level of fame end up doing these kinds of gigs anyway, even the very biggest ones. It's not like anyone's going to think less of Jessie because of it, and if anything it shows how big of a name she's become. By some of the reactions you'd think she was doing Big Brother or something.

 

[Secret]

It's definitely not going to do any disservice to anything she's doing, but I think it's way more likely this came from the success of Table Manners than her music dd.

[PopHouseMusic]

I played Freak Me Now 5 times in a row on the way to work today, that song is a fucking SMASH.

 

[Joe Z]

There is so much confidence and joy permeating this record, it never fails to make me smile.

Dull question.

Has anyone received any confirmation that their personalised copy has shipped?

 

[Future Lover]

My personalized Banquet CD has been shipped. They're provided me with at least three different update emails for each status change, so you might want to check out your spam folders.

I got my signed copy from Amazon UK and I’m disappointed, I thought there was gonna be a slipcover situation with the packaging for the cd as well?! (It’s also a more zoomed in photo).

Also, does my purchase count for the US or UK?
