JADA INTERVIEW! + "BREAK UP SONG"

I was fortunate enough to interview the amazing R&B/Pop girlgroup, Jada! They were so nice and I ended up talking to them for 45 minutes + ! They talked about their still untitled debut album, getting signed to Universal/Motown, working with some of the best producers in the game and opening for Boyz II Men! Check out the interview, as well as their new single, "Break Up Song", which was just released on iTunes (GO BUY IT!), below! Transcript coming soon, but I'd prefer if you listened to get an insight into the girls' refreshing personality.

Jada consists of April, Elle, Jacyn and Lauren. They've been in the music industry for quite some time now. Their song, "I'm That Chick", featuring Sean Kingston and produced by J. R. Rotem (Jason Derulo, Britney Spears), was featured on the soundtrack to the Bring It On movie, In It to Win It. They released their first single, "American Cowboy", produced by RedOne (Kat DeLuna, Colby O'Donis, Lady Gaga) and Akon, early this year and shot the video with famed director, Ray Kay (Lady Gaga, Paradiso Girls). Their as of yet untitled debut album, out early next year, will include productions by Toby Gad (Beyonce, Fergie), Wyclef Jean (Shakira, Ying Yang Twins) and Danja (Ciara, Keri Hilson), among others, as well as the second single, the slow jam, "Break Up Song", which has just been released on iTunes.

Introducing JADA

In the midst of a hefty number of girlgroups trying to make it into the business, one that really stands out is JADA. JADA consists of April, Elle, Jacyn and Lauren, four talented girls who couldn't be better friends. They're way talented, too! Don't believe me? Check out some of the performance videos below!

Anyways, JADA are signed to Universal/Motown, and they're the first white girlgroup to be signed to the label. Some of their accomplishments include working with some of the hottest producers in the business right now, including Danja (Nelly Furtado, Keri Hilson), Toby Gad (Fergie, Beyonce) and Wyclef Jean (Shakira, Mashonda). They had their song, "I'm That Chick", which features Sean Kingston and was produced by J. R. Rotem (Britney Spears, Paris Hilton), on the soundtrack of the 4th Bring It On movie, In It To Win It. They opened for BoyzIIMen and were praised by En Vogue. They've had a song of theirs, "American Cowboy", featured on the hit NBC show, House. They won the award for Best New R&B/Pop Act in the Boston Awards last year. That got you convinced yet?

They released their first single, "American Cowboy", earlier this year. It was produced by RedOne (Lady Gaga, Sugababes) and written by Akon. The sexy/funny video was directed by Ray Kay (Paradiso Girls, Beyonce). They're following up "American Cowboy" with the anthemic "Break Up Song", due for release on November 3rd, with a yet-to-be-titled album following shortly after.

We were fortunate enough to do an interview with the girls of JADA, thanks to Anne Reed, so stay tuned, because the interview will be posted tomorrow in both audio and transcript versions! Also, tune it to the CW's new show, The Beautiful Life, tonight, to hear their song, "Model That", also produced by RedOne! Come back tomorrow for my review on the show and the clip of the song! In the meantime, check out some videos/songs by the girls below.
