LA-based, award-winning edgy pop/rock recording artist BC Jean is back and, this time we suspect, for good. After first surfacing awhile back as the songwriter for writing and recording the first version of the Beyoncé's mega hit single, "If I Were a Boy" three years ago, and then putting her own voice to her words with last year's Top 40 charting debut single "Just A Guy," which received raves from the likes of New York Post "Popwatch" writer Ryan Brockington who exclaimed "If Kelly Clarkson and P!nk could have a baby... her music is as great as the people helping her make it."Inspired by Gwen Stefani and Alanis Morrisette, Jean is a dynamic young artist who possesses tremendous talent, drive, and passion. The 23-year-old pop-star-in-waiting has just released a brand new video for her first single "I'll Survive You," off her debut album, due out later this year! The soaring mid-tempo ballad pairs Jean's uniquely gritty voice with a story of overcoming a relationship gone bad. It's a shimmery yet broody pop song of epic ballad proportions, which is highlighted by Jean's distinctly edgy vocal style.
The single is a gigantic explosion of gut-wrenching power ballad brilliance, which makes sense considering it was produced and co-written by hitmaker Max Martin (P!nk, Katy Perry), Shellback (P!nk, Ke$ha) and Savan Kotecha (Brittney Spears, Adam Lambert). Jean said via her official website about her new single" "I recorded the song in Sweden w/the amazing Max Martin. It's an emotional power ballad with a great story. It's one of those songs I use to remind myself to stay strong through tough times. It's an empowering song to sing so I hope it empowers those who hear it!"
The San Diego native was the subject of a signing frenzy. Jean has hit a home run with her new single "I'll Survive You" and the critics agree! The new turn has me falling in love all over again with her amazing voice. This song has power, and an equally pensive indictment of bad romance, this time gilded with hope. Great hit, and I can't help but keep hearing that tinkling toy piano reiterating the melody line in the background. The video plays a bit like a modern day "Stay," as we're left to survey the damage of a failed relationship that slowly cleans itself up. Jean has a great voice that's unmistakably hers. The countdown is on her for her album.
