Coco Jones wanted to experiment and "see what sticks and lands—what really changes my life" with her brand-new album "Why Not More?"

Coco Jones went for an unbridled approach for her debut LP, Why Not More? On this trim, 14-song set, the Nashville, Tennessee native is bringing all sorts of R&B flavors. From contemporary to Trap&B, she's giving fans a little bit of everything.

Sometimes, that formula doesn't always pay off for artists, especially when it comes to a cohesiveness standpoint. But we think you'll find the opposite to be true thanks to the consistency in themes of these tracks. Coco Jones also has a lot of confidence with this album's sonic direction as well.

In speaking with AP, the former Disney actress explained, "What would I do if I didn’t have any fear of comparing myself to 'ICU' and my EP? Or if I thought there was some formula that people wanted from me?" Jones was asking herself throughout this album's process. "That was kind of the mood: just be fearless."

She said further, "I’m just proud of every version of myself that I’ve been, and who I’ll become after this album and really proud of putting together a project that I feel confident in."

Part of that self-assurance came from the mindset she went into the project with. "There was a pressure to outdo myself. But I also have to remind myself that I wasn’t trying to win anything… I was just doing me... what felt right. I was being honest, I was just being vulnerable." Check out her unapologetic debut with the Spotify and Apple Music links below.

Even though being able to give his expertise on these stories is fulfilling, being able to share his passion for releases trumps that ever so slightly. Having the chance to express his excitement indirectly about what he thinks our readers should be checking out/revisiting grows his passion for writing that much more.
