Former Little Mix member Jesy Nelson has signed with international talent management company YMU for global representation. 

Before departing Little Mix in 2020, Nelson was an original member of the group who came together during the eighth series of The X Factor in 2011. They have since gone on to sell over 50 million records worldwide.

Founded in 1984, YMU is the leading management company for clients in sport, music and entertainment. With offices in LA, London, Washington, New York and Manchester the company is committed to providing strategic career advice to elite clients across the world. 

Clients currently represented across the YMU Group include Take That, Steve Aoki, Ant & Dec and Fearne Cotton among others.

Jesy Nelson said: “I am so excited to join YMU and can’t wait to start my next chapter.”

Mary Bekhait, group CEO of YMU, said: “Jesy has enjoyed incredible success as a recording artist and performer and is well placed to further her remarkable career. She is a hugely talented, versatile and authentic artist with a strong creative vision, and we are looking forward to helping her realise that.” 

This comes after the remaining members of Little Mix have stated they are still very much together but will also be doing solo projects in addition to their Little Mix commitments. It was revealed recently that Leigh-Anne signed with Tap Music for her solo projects.

Jesy has been in the studio A LOT the past few weeks and has been posting many pictures/videos of herself in there! It is not clear which record label Jesy has been signed with as of yet, it is rumoured she has cut ties with her former label RCA/Sony.

It appears Jesy has been helping produce some of her solo music too!

She was also in the studio again today:

It's so bittersweet, she seems so much happier now and more involved in music again! Whatever makes her happy

The way I will click on that "Buy" when her new music is out will be faster than you can say Ferrari.

She seems so passionate about this project 

I'm guessing she's making the music she always wanted to make!

I think she's working with Sinead Harnett, the person who's song she covered last year in lockdown - her name was on a whiteboard in the background of one of Jesy's recent posts. Sinead also wrote she can't wait to hear the final track!
