[edit] Music Career
[edit] No Secrets
In 2001, she joined the all-girl pop sensation, No Secrets, singing lead alongside Angel Faith. Jessica sang the lead vocal on about half of the songs on No Secrets' self-titled debut album. Unfortunately, No Secrets' two singles Kids in America and That's What Girls Do were both sung by Angel so Jessica was just another one of the girls in the chorus.
She, Erin Tanner, Carly Lewis, and Jade Ryusaki recorded a cover of Atomic Kitten's hit single Whole Again without Angel in 2003 and Angel then left the group to pursue a solo career. In early 2004, the remaining four members of No Secrets recorded Once Upon Another Dream for Disneymania 2 and then parted ways shortly thereafter.
[edit] Solo
Since the 2004 dissolution, Jessica changed her stage name to Jessi Malay. She signed with Warner Bros. Records and is currently recording songs for her debut album. Originally, her first single was to be Topsy Turvy but was then changed to Gimme, featuring Lil Scrappy. It was released in the clubs on August 22, 2006 and was released as a single on August 29. She is also to be featured in a song on Twista's new album, Adrenaline Rush 2010, titled Blessed.
The confirmed tracks for the album are: "Gimme" featuring Lil Scrappy, "Topsy Turvy," "Hpnotiq," "The Whole 9," "King," and "Booty Bangs."
