Joss Stone performs on Conan’s show
1Her very badly promoted album and cry for emancipation from EMI, Colour Me Free, has some good tidbits in it. But, it is, by far, the worst of her album. Maybe because the record company meddled in it too much or she wants to release anything to rid her of her contract. At any rate, she remains unique in her delivery of her genre.
Joss Stone isn’t a fan of Lily Allen
Joss Stone is one to speak her mind. Lily Allen is too. So, this looks like the feud that will go on and on. Both British mini-divas are at it. Joss started by firing at Allen.
“[Lily] needs to sell records because she’s not a singer, and that’s not an offence to her because I think that she knows that too,” Stone told the Press Association.
Joss said she is “making real music [and] people [will] come to the show” for “artist[s] like Lily … it’s about the track, their personality and their celebrity.”

This one slipped under the radar for us. We just found out today that Joss Stone has released a new album (on the date of release). Not sure why it didn’t receive enough publicity or promo, but we knew it had to do with the record company. It turns out that there was some industry mud-slinging. Her record label has been obtained my an equity firm and Joss Stone does not like that at all. So the album got delayed and shelved. Then when it came time to release it there was no video and very little promo (mostly word-of-mouth and blog frenzy). But, its available for download now and the album cover has been changed with one with no image and just text. Apparently, the record company didn’t want Joss Stone to be enslaved on the cover.
