The time has finally come. If you know me personally OR simply follow me on Twitter, you're probably aware that I am a HUGE Jade Alston fan. She exhibits ultimate control of her voice, her content is appropriate and relevant, and if you can't tell by the EP cover above, "easy on the eyes" would be an understatement.
Her highly anticipated project, Single On A Saturday Night features an array of tracks (more specifically - 10) that showcase the young songstress' vocal ability. My favorite, and also the lead single, "Missing You Lately" in addition to the introduction title track both do a phenomenal job setting the tone early on. I must mention, I attended Alston's listening party a few months ago, and was provided the opportunity to critique the entire project...start to finish...it was classic. Surprisingly, this is not the same project. There are a few tracks that I personally thought were beyond official, that are not included. Leading me to believe that either the artist scrapped those OR has decided to hold on to them for a future project. Time will tell.
In the meantime, she has delivered and I recommend all enjoy...as this will go down as Jade Alston's official introduction. You will be able to tell your friends, "I've been a Jade Alston fan!"

R&B singer/songwriter Jade Alston releases her debut EP, 'Single On A Saturday Night,' exclusively on Singersroom.com. The set features Grammy-Nominated songwriter Claude Kelly, who co-wrote the lead single, "Missing You Lately," while Grammy-Winning producer Chuck Harmony also contributed to the project.
'Single on a Saturday Night' tells a story about a single woman on a Saturday night. Each track off the EP plays like a journal entry into Jade’s personal diary. "Searching," "Love of My Life" and "Sober" are entries into Jade’s journal to which anyone who has ever had a love interest can relate. With "Missing You Lately," Jade writes about that phone call which never comes from that special someone.
Although the tone and texture of Jade’s voice is like Toni Braxton, conceptually, Jade is the female singing version of Kanye West and Drake. Jade blends Kanye’s soul, honesty and originality with Drake’s versatility and ability to relate. Like the HBO character Carrie Bradshaw, Jade writes about women’s issues and has distinctive style. Jade’s uniqueness brings freshness to the R&B industry that is apparent to listeners.
