Jessi, a Korean-American singer, will no longer be signed by PSY’s P NATION, the agency stated on Wednesday, July 6. The shocking announcement surprised fans since the singer has close ties with PSY and was the first artist to join the agency in 2019. After three years, the idol has decided to leave the agency.
She has always been bold and brave, challenging the methods of the K-pop business with her songs, music videos, and clothes. By being herself, the Cold-Blooded singer garnered the respect and affection of the K-pop fanbase. The What Type of X rapper has previously spoken about PSY’s backing and the ease of working with P NATION. Given that she did not extend her contract, fans are wondering which agency she will be joining and why she made this choice.
Fans are astonished when Jessi departs P NATION after three years.
On Wednesday, July 6, P NATION announced the termination of its contract with its debut singer, Jessi. The female idol’s achievement was also noted in the statement, and she was described as a “source of encouragement for every member” of the agency.
The following is an extract from the statement:
“Being with P NATION from the beginning and now as P NATION’s first artist, Jessi has solidified her place as an artist who is liked by more people thanks to her warm enthusiasm and never-ending efforts.” That process and her accomplishments became positive and exciting sources of encouragement for every P NATION member.”
The agency also said that they would continue to encourage and support the NUNU NANA artist in her future endeavors. While the announcement surprised some fans, several chastised the corporation for not properly promoting the idol. Jessi joined P NATION in January 2019, becoming the agency’s first artist. During her stint with P NATION, the star had a string of hit songs. Who Dat B, her second EP NUNU, which included the viral tune NUNU NANA, What Type of X, Cold Blooded, and Zoom – practically all of her songs were immediate successes.
Apart from collaborations, the 33-year-old singer has been on a number of variety programs, including Sixth Sense, Hangout with Yoo, and Showterview. She rose to prominence thanks to Showterview (which is currently said to be hosted by Sunmi), and her scorching songs boosted her profile even further. The rapper turned to Instagram hours after the announcement to formally address the news. She said unequivocally that she is not retiring. She is taking a sabbatical for the time being, but she is “just getting started.” “Love you Pnation for life,” the message said.
Fans wonder about the rapper’s new management company.
During a contract discussion on Sixth Sense, the singer stated that her contract was set to end in two weeks. Lovelyz’ Mijoo then asked the NUNU NANA singer if she wanted to work with Yoo Hee-agency, yeol’s Antenna. Jessi then jokedly recounted all of Antenna’s amenities and even asked a fate teller how she would do at the new firm. The footage has now reappeared on the internet, and many speculate that it may have been a foreshadowing of the idol’s move to Antenna.
