Jessie wanted Rih, Katy, Rita and Ellie on Bang Bang Remix
Quote:
Jessie J released her third studio album “Sweet Talker” last week, buoyed by the hit single “Bang Bang.” The track features Nicki Minaj and Ariana Grande, but if it had gone as Jessie planned, there would have been even more features on the song.
“Once I heard Nicki and Ariana and how good it was, I almost wanted to do a remix with more artists,” the singer, nee Jessica Cornish, explained on “Ralphie Tonight.” “It hasn’t happened, but maybe one day it should.”
The “Domino” singer had an all-female cast in mind: Ellie Goulding, Rita Ora, Katy Perry, Rihanna and “whoever would be down really. I think it’d be kind of sick.”
If one thing is evident, it is that the UK artist loves to collaborate.
“It’s exciting to share talent and a moment of creation with people,” she said of her thought process. The album’s second single, “Burnin’ Up,” features a verse from rapper 2 Chainz. Other contributors include De La Soul and violinist Lindsey Stirling. But Jessie J is most proud of the fact that she is not just singing, but rather singing on her latest LP.
I don't blame her. There was a time where the top female singers could get together on one track. Unfortunately, talent has decreased so much to the point where egos don't even remotely correlate with talent.
