It's 'All Or Nothing' For Jay Sean In American Debut Album

Multi-platinum British-Indian R&B and pop artist Jay Sean stopped by to perform his two hit singles "Do You Remember" and "Down" off his third studio album (but first American album) All or Nothing.

Jay Sean is currently signed to Cash Money Records with rapper Lil Wayne. His American debut single "Down" topped Billboard Hot 100 chart, making him the first solo artist of Asian origin and first UK urban act to top the Hot 100. The single alone sold over two million copies in the United States, making him the most successful male UK urban artist in US chart history to date. The next single “Do You Remember" debuted at #27 in the Hot 100.

In a recent interview, Jay Sean said "I want to do my best to represent the UK in America and let people really understand that it doesn't matter if we're from a little place called Hounslow. As long as you work hard and strive to do your best and make good music, and of course with a bit of luck, it is possible."

Born Kamaljit Singh Jhooti in the London borough of Hounslow, the 28-year-old began rapping at age 11 and eventually switched to R&B music. At the same time, he was a medical school student -- a far cry from "pop star."

WIth a future that is just beginning, All Or Nothing speaks with a refreshing mix of humility and confidence. Jay Sean’s songs has caught the attention of a producer putting together a groundbreaking project fusing traditional Punjabi music and contemporary Pop/R&B. As soon as the single dropped, Jay Sean became the face and voice of a new generation.

All Or Nothing is available in store now. For more information visit www.jaysean.com.
