Jessie Ware - What's Your Pleasure

Since her debut in 2012, Jessie Ware has been a recognized, upcoming pop star. But the competition in the industry is tough, especially when you're signed to one of the big labels and are 10 years older than the very young, hopeful artists. After the release of her latest album Glass House from 2017, and with a little new one at home, the big pop plans were therefore put on standby.

Meanwhile, Jessie Ware has found success with a cooking podcast with her mother ("Table Manners"), which has taken a lot of focus, but also provided a stability that the music industry did not offer. Music has changed from being a crucial livelihood to being a side hustle where things can happen at her own pace.

The manager and the record label were changed. So was her musical style. The singles released since 2017 can still be characterized as pop, but are characterized by a much more laid-back club sound, which is in a tension field between 80s pop, lounge and nu-disco. The fact that the music career has taken a back seat in certain areas is in no way noticeable. The quality of the songs is higher than ever. It is a more confident Jessie Ware that you hear on the formidable singles "Adore You" and "Spotlight". A pop star who has reinvented herself with a timeless pop expression.
