Jesy Nelson has reportedly parted ways with her record label Polydor, which is part of the Universal Music Group as they were going in different musical directions.

A spokesperson for Jesy told The Mirror, “[Jesy] feels now is the right for her to move in a new direction. As a result, she has decided to part company with Polydor.”

While a spokesperson for Polydor told them, “Polydor have amicably parted ways with Jesy. We have enjoyed working with her and everyone at the label wishes her nothing but the best for the future.”

Giving more context on the departure a source told The Mirror, “Jesy decided it was the right time for her to make a clean break. She and the label have been going in different directions in recent months.

“Whilst there hasn’t been a fall-out, Jesy just felt it was better to start afresh now – whilst everyone was still friends…

“Rather than go on together whilst having such differing musical ideas for the future, she now wants to be able to develop fully her own ideas as an individual artist,” they continued.

Jesy announced her departure from Little Mix in November 2020 after missing multiple appearances with the band, and has since been carving a solo career for herself with her first single BOYZ featuring Nicki Minaj.

The band continued as a trio when she left until they split earlier this year to focus on their own solo projects.

We are excited to see what’s next for each of the girls, as it seems like this is a new chapter for them all!
