New Music & Video Release - Jessie J makes highly anticipated return with new single No Secrets

Artist Name: Jessie J
Release Name - No Secrets
Release Date - 28th April 2025
Genre - Pop, R&B
Label - Darco Artist Partnerships (D.A.P.)
BRIT award-winning, multi-platinum selling artist Jessie J makes her highly anticipated return with 'No Secrets', her first release in four years. This will be followed by her first single, 'Living My Best Life', produced by Ryan Tedder (OneRepublic), out Friday, May 16 via Darco Artist Partnerships (D.A.P).
'No Secrets' is a deeply personal, open invitation into the highs and lows of Jessie J's life over the past few years. Confronting themes of loss, trauma and the impact of social media, poking fun at oversharing, the single serves as a raw and unfiltered reintroduction to one of the most successful and recognisable voices in British music. Produced by Los Hendrix (SZA, Brent Faiyaz) and Jesse Boykins III, the track sees Jessie J embracing her alt-R&B sound, with her signature powerhouse vocals and soul-baring lyricism commanding attention from the very first heartfelt line.
Jessie J speaking about 'No Secrets':
"This song is super personal, but I hope it can be relative to anyone's life. I'm a very honest person; I say it how it is, and I share a lot of things with the world that most people don't, but always with a little humour. Humour is key - the music has really gotten me through."
In contrast, 'Living My Best Life' is Jessie J's pure celebration of positivity and joy. The exuberant Tedder throwback 'Living My Best Life' came to Jessie J while driving through LA, the best of Whitney and Prince rebounding about her jeep.
On 'Living My Best Life' Jessie J says:
"I love the sense of moving upwards, so 'Living My Best Life' has that same feeling. It feels timeless, classic, 80s. It makes you want to dance."
Next month, Jessie J is set to play an intimate acoustic headline show at London's Union Chapel on Tuesday, May 20. This special performance will give fans the first chance to experience her new music live, alongside a selection of fan favourites and her captivating, humorous personality, which has built a strong fan base over the years.
Jessie J (born Jessica Ellen Cornish) is a BRIT award-winning and Grammy-nominated British singer-songwriter known for her seismic vocals, confessional lyrics, empowering attitude, dynamic stage presence, great sense of humour, and genre-blending music. Having sold over 20 million records worldwide, she first rose to international fame with her debut album 'Who You Are' (2011), which yielded six Top 10 smashes, including 'Price Tag', 'Domino' and 'Who You Are'.
Over the years, she has established herself as a versatile artist, seamlessly fusing pop, R&B, and soul. Her subsequent albums, including 'Alive' (2013), 'Sweet Talker' (2014) - which featured the diamond-selling global hit 'Bang Bang' with Ariana Grande and Nicki Minaj, and R.O.S.E. (2018), showcase her artistic evolution.
Jessie J is also recognised for her work as a songwriter, penning hits for other artists (Miley Cyrus' 'Party In The USA'), which has also received diamond status, and for her participation in television shows such as The Voice UK and The Singer (China), where she won first place in 2018, with 1.2 billion people watching the live final. Jessie J's last album, R.O.S.E. (2018), a confessional opus, showcased her continued growth as an artist, delving into personal and emotional themes with raw, heartfelt lyrics. This singer's voice continues to ring out in nearly every corner of the globe.
