Britain’s Jessie J has announced a new album, Dont Tease Me With A Good Time, due November 28, 2025, marking her first full-length release in seven years. The announcement comes as the pop singer continues to navigate treatment for breast cancer and adjusts a touring schedule she had to pause after undergoing a mastectomy in June and learning in August that she would need a second operation by the end of the year. The project, described by the artist as a milestones-filled return to music, arrives as fans rally around her recovery while she remains in the public eye.
In a video posted to Instagram on Wednesday, Jessie J confirmed the release and offered a glimpse into the record. She said the album is coming on November 28 and revealed several tracks that fans can expect, including No Secret, Believe In Magic, Living My Best Life and The Award Goes To... which she noted might have been a single in another timeline. She encouraged fans to pre-order, noting formats such as vinyl and CD, and mentioning signed items and other merchandise that would accompany the release. A first look at the album artwork accompanied the post, showing Jessie in a close-up with dramatic bright blue eyeshadow and a glittering red lip.
Earlier this month, Jessie J returned to the stage for her first live performance since her mastectomy, opening a set at BBC Radio 2 In The Park in Chelmsford, Essex. She received a rousing reception from fans who sang along as she spoke about her health journey. In remarks captured by fans and media, she acknowledged the surgery she had eight weeks earlier and spoke candidly about her ongoing recovery, saying that while she felt ready to perform, her doctors advised her to pace herself. “Some of you may know, some of you may not know, but I had breast cancer surgery 11 weeks ago today,” she told the crowd, adding that she was “not ready for Babins” and that she remained focused on healing.
The release of Dont Tease Me With A Good Time comes amid a reshaped touring plan. Jessie J previously announced that the UK and European dates would be moved to April 2026, while US dates were initially left unrescheduled due to logistical considerations. In addressing the rescheduling on social media, she explained that she could not yet coordinate the American venues within a compact time frame next year and therefore would cancel those dates for now, while stressing her commitment to reclaiming the US leg when the timing is right. “I haven’t been able to finesse the US dates yet so unfortunately that will be cancelled but I’m spending all my time trying to find time to make the venues make sense again in a slab of time next year,” she said in a recent post. The changes come as she weighs her health needs against a demanding touring schedule, emphasizing realism and healing as priorities.
The album marks a long-awaited return to the studio after seven years since R.O.S.E., released in 2018. Fans have been eager for new material from the singer, who first rose to fame with a string of chart-topping singles and a distinctive pop-soul sound. In addition to its anticipated tracks, Dont Tease Me With A Good Time is also seen as a personal project for Jessie J, who has spoken publicly about her cancer journey and the impact it has had on her family and career. The album is available to pre-order, with options that include vinyl, CD and signed merchandise, reflecting the multifaceted ways fans connect with artists in the streaming era.
Away from the studio, Jessie J has shared glimpses of family life from behind the scenes. She has spoken about her two-year-old son Sky and has highlighted moments when he appears in her performances or on social media, underscoring the ways in which motherhood intersects with her return to public life. Fans have expressed support across social platforms, praising her resilience and the way she has continued to create music while navigating treatment and recovery.
As Dont Tease Me With A Good Time nears its release, the music community watches with interest as Jessie J folds her comeback into a broader narrative of recovery and perseverance. The album is poised to add a new chapter to her career, offering listeners a blend of hopeful anthems and introspective ballads. In a year marked by health challenges and logistical hurdles, her decision to press forward with new music underscores her commitment to her artistry and to the fans who have stood by her throughout this journey.
