Press Release

Jaya made a cracking start to 2010 off the back of a national tour with N-Dubz, Tinie Tempah, Mz Bratt and Esmee Denters, supporting Peter Andre on tour, a show stopping performance at the Asian Music Awards and her debut single DJ Do It Again released in March…… but then she disappeared! Although still seen attending the odd celebrity red carpet events and her memorable performances on the BBC Introducing stages at festivals this summer, for the main part Jaya was pretty quiet. Now she is back with new music, and a more focused approach to her sound. “2010 was a learning experience for me, we released a record and me and my management team felt like we wanted to spend time behind the scenes getting the sound and the direction of the project right before releasing the next single, plus we were having creative differences with the label which took a long time to resolve, but now I’m back and I’m happier with everything creatively.” DJ Do It Again was a profile building record for Jaya and it did what it set out to do. Peaking at number 2 on the MTV Dance charts and number 3 on the first ever BBC Asian Music Charts. Outta Control, which is set for a Valentines Day release is the first single to bring her back into public consciousnesses. It is a bass heavy slice of urban pop, which chronicles Jaya falling for a guy in a way that leaves her feeling completely out of control of her emotions and doing things that are out of character. The song was co-written by Jaya with UK producer Anthony Marshall who currently resides in the US and is known for successfully working with artists such as Craig David, Steven Marley, K-Ci & Jo Jo, Britney Spears and JLS to name a few. Outta Control also features Jojo Simmons, the son of Hip Hop royalty Rev Run (Run DMC) nephew of Def Jam co-founder and Hip Hop Mogul Russell Simmons and star of MTV reality television series Runs House. Of his decision to collaborate with Jaya as his introduction to the European market; Jojo who raps under the moniker “Young Simmons” said “I was looking for the right sound to launch in Europe and when I heard the track I thought her sound was incredible! When I heard the vocals and the way the track bumped, I just had to jump on it and then when I saw how she looked it was a wrap. I had to get on this record! Plus the record shows my diversity.” Outta Control is released digitally on February 14th.

  • Bio

    It’s a milestone that's been a long time coming - but it's easy to see why Jaya is blazing the trail for British-Indian artists, with radio already in rapture about her debut single release.. ‘DJ Do It Again, ..’ via ..All Around The World / Universal Music... ‘..DJ Do It Again..’ is a commercial pop record of immense proportions; perfectly capturing the excitement of hearing a favourite song on the radio, it’s an irresistible synth groove with dancefloor-friendly beats and a monster chorus. Jaya says: "..It's about those moments when it doesn't matter how tired you are, how much your feet hurt - you just want to get up and dance and have a good time..." Following a hugely successful support slot on their most recent tour, Jaya has already found her own set of celebrity fans in the form of urban pop leaders ..N-Dubz. .. So much so that the band has remixed Jaya’s single, with ..Fazer.. offering his ‘80s inspired beats and Dappy his expeditious rhymes to remodel the song into an urban anthem, further broadening Jaya’s mainstream appeal. ..Dolce & Gabbana.. and ..Reebok.. have also taken notice of her potential, already offering exciting partnership deals for 2010. Articulate, determined and charming - with songs that combine R&B and electropop, Jaya is a hugely appealing pop package. "..Confident, creative, sexy and larger-than-life.." is how she describes herself - and she's not wrong. It's why she's attracted so many big names to work on her debut album, set for release in late 2010: she will collaborate with producers such as ..Hawkeye .. (Raghav, Kardinal Offishall) ..Jonas Jeberg.. (Kylie Minogue, Britney Spears) and ..Parker & James.. (Chipmunk ‘Oopsy Daisy’). "..It's going to be a feel good album, .." she says. "..Every track will be different, but I want people to be able to listen to it as a whole too. .." The daughter of a Hindu Priest, Jaya's trailblazing status as the first female pop artist of Indian heritage to be signed to a major label is also very dear to her. "..It's hard to take in..," she says. "..I always wanted to be the first to do something positive - to make history, even in a small way. When people think of a famous Asian woman, I want to be the name that comes to mind - for good reasons! And I really want to put Indians on the map in a commercial way, so people are more aware of who we are and what we do. ..
