Didn't the Guardian interview that came out a month ago state that it was coming in the Autumn? Kinda assumed the earliest it would come out is next Friday.

It was always planned for the first or second weekend in September. Not sure what’s causing the month delay.
 
The melodrama for a.............Jesy Nelson song.
Ah, sometimes I don't get the Popjustice brand humour. I do get the joke itself and it's a kii. But this is Jesy Nelson of Little Mix fame. The most beloved girl group in this forum. So why is it so outlandish and extra for me to be really excited about this launch?

Is it really better to release during Q1 with abysmal overall sales than during Q4 just to avoid chart competition? I'm not sure.

As people no longer really receive CD's and such for Xmas? Is this still a thing? Granted vinyl seems to have made somewhat of a resurgence but often this is out sometime after the album pops up for streaming anyway. And when it does come out at the same time... by the evidence of the PJ threads. People certainly aren't waiting for the whims of a family member to get those records. All 20 versions are brought now and damn the rent.

So is the jam everything into Q4 not a hangover of the old physical music industry? Streaming has broken down the old rules? I can see how legacy acts like ABBA *cough* Steps etc. with older fans that want to continue with physical copies of things to complete collections but does it benefit new acts? Which Jesy will be?

I don't know, just thought it was an interesting topic. Fingers crossed when the single does come out it's worth the wait as I do miss Jesy's voice.
 
I think it's not just 'nobody buys gifts in Q1' as well as 'everyone has spent all they have in Q4'. I can't see someone not checking an album they're interested because of that, but postponing its purchase? Possibly.

That makes sense. Let's hope enough people will still have unused gift cards to redeem against Jesy's offering by the time it comes out. Give her a bit more of a fighting chance in the charts.

Is she still in L.A? Wonder if they will get her to do something else when she's there.
