New York, NY - With a distinctive vocal style that's rich and full of conviction, J Records' latest signing, Jazmine Sullivan, is set to heat up the airwaves this summer with her smash new single "Need U Bad." The infectious reggae-tinged single, written by Jazmine and produced by Missy Elliott and Lamb, impacted urban mainstream radio on May 26th and has already climbed to #25 on the charts.
Demure but dangerous, Jazmine's frank, take-no-prisoners approach to songwriting, coupled with her passionate delivery, will quickly establish her as the one to watch this year and years to come. While her self-penned lyrics on "Bust Your Windows," "One Night Stand," "Call Me Guilty" and "In Love With Another Man," may raise a few eyebrows, music production by Missy, Salaam Remi, Jack Splash, Tricky, Wyclef, Stargate and more, will keep listeners captivated throughout her forthcoming debut disc.
While in the process of recording and promoting her album, Jazmine will give fans an inside look into her life by leaving voice mail updates along her journey. Fans can call Jazmine at (215) 789-4753 to hear her updates and leave messages.
Singing since the age of five, the Philly native made her first national televised appearance on Showtime at the Apollo at the age of 11. As Jazmine continued to hone and define her vocal dexterity, she quickly gained a legion of fans during her jaw-dropping live sets at her hometown's popular Black Lily showcases, where artists such as Jill Scott, Musiq, and Floetry performed before they became national recording artists.
With a track record of amazing live performances, songwriting credits for Christina Milian's "Say I," and background vocal appearances on several albums, including Missy's forthcoming album, there's no question that the sassy 21 year-old Jazmine is prepared to introduce the world to her unique brand of bold and beautiful music with a rebellious spirit.
