Joss Stone - Introducing Joss Stone album cover | |||||||||||||||
Introducing Joss Stone is the third studio album by English soul singer Joss Stone, released on 12 March 2007 in the United Kingdom and 20 March 2007 worldwide via Virgin Records.
Stone began recording it in Barbados, in May 2006. Producers include Raphael Saadiq and collaborations include Lauryn Hill, Novel, Mix Master Mike, and Common. Virgin Records describes it as "an electrifying mix of warm vintage soul, '70s-style R&B, Motown girl-group harmonies, and hip-hop grooves". Stone herself describes it as "truly me. That's why I'm calling it Introducing Joss Stone. These are my words, and this is who I am as an artist". The lead single from the album, "Tell Me 'Bout It", debuted at number twenty-eight on the UK Singles Chart and number one on the U.S. Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles (peaking at number eighty-three inside the Hot 100 two weeks later). Two versions of the album are being released — a single CD version in a jewel case and a CD/DVD version in a foldout Digipak. The DVD contains thirty-five minutes of material including recording footage, interviews with Stone, and the music video for "Tell Me 'Bout It". The album leaked into the Internet on 7 March 2007, before debuting on the UK Albums Chart at number twelve selling over 27,000 in its first week. It debuted on the U.S. Billboard 200 at number two with first-week sales of over 124,000. This was the highest-charting debut for a British female artist. The previous record was held by Amy Winehouse's Back to Black which was released just a few weeks before. The album has been a commerical failure in the UK, selling just 41,000 copies since it release, just a fraction of what The Soul Sessions and Mind, Body & Soul had sold at the same point after release.
