Jess Glynne has officially ended her partnership with Roc Nation, the management company founded by music mogul Jay-Z. This decision marks a significant shift in her career as she prepares for a fresh start in 2026. Earlier this year, Glynne also parted ways with EMI after releasing just one album under the label.
In a strategic move, Glynne is now being managed by Craig Logan, former bass player of the 1980s pop group Bros. She has signed with Logan Media Entertainment, which boasts a roster that includes established artists such as Pink and Dido. Sources close to Glynne indicate that this new collaboration is already sparking fresh ideas and creative directions for her music.
A music insider shared, “Jess hasn’t had the easiest situation in music. She has found it hard to get a team behind her who she feels really gets who she is and what she is aiming for.” With Craig Logan’s guidance, there is optimism about her upcoming projects, which are said to involve exciting developments in the coming months.
Despite recent challenges, Glynne has experienced a resurgence in her career. Her hit song, “Hold My Hand,” released a decade ago, gained renewed popularity this year after becoming TikTok’s UK song of the year, largely due to a viral trend associated with Jet2holidays. Glynne expressed her gratitude for the song’s revival, stating, “I always knew there was something special about it. Melodically it’s instantly uplifting and catchy, but at its heart, the lyrics are powerful. They are about connection.”
The success of “Hold My Hand” has introduced Glynne to a new audience, allowing fans to reconnect with her music and personal story. “It breathed new life into it, and I’m so grateful to see a wave of a new audience now connect with it,” she noted.
In addition to her professional developments, Glynne hinted at personal milestones, suggesting she may be preparing to propose to her girlfriend, Alex Scott, following Scott’s recent appearance on the reality show “I’m A Celeb.” Over her career, Glynne has achieved an impressive seven UK No. 1 singles, with her last chart-topper being “I’ll Be There” in 2018. With her new management team, she aims to add more hits to her résumé.
Meanwhile, fellow artist Shaun Ryder of the band Happy Mondays is looking to get fit ahead of their upcoming tour, which starts in March 2024. Ryder expressed determination to maintain his health as the band gears up for 22 dates across the UK.
In other entertainment news, Khloe Kardashian sparked interest with her recent comments regarding her relationship with basketball player Tristan Thompson. Despite speculation about a reconciliation, she clarified their relationship status, emphasizing their connection as co-parents.
As the new year approaches, the entertainment landscape is buzzing with excitement. Glynne’s new direction and the resurgence of classic hits reflect the ever-evolving nature of the music industry, where artists continue to adapt and innovate. With her new team in place, fans can anticipate a dynamic year ahead for Jess Glynne and her music.
