Jesse McCartney - Have It All (2010)

Jesse McCartney was born on 9 April 1987 in Ardsley, Westchester, New York, and started acting at a very young age, performing in local community musicals at the age of seven, and then debuting his role in 'Oliver!', before joining the national tour of 'The King And I' at the age of ten. In 1999 he joined the American pop boy band Dream Street, and was a member until 2002, describing the experience as a good stepping stone for his solo career. Following the release of his first solo three-track EP in July 2003, he issued his debut album 'Beautiful Soul' in September 2004 in the United States, and over a year later in Europe. It reached number number 15 on the Billboard 200, and he toured the US, Australia and Europe promoting it throughout 2005. His second album featured all self-penned songs bar one, and 'Right Where You Want Me' was more mature than his debut, reflecting his musical and personal growth since he recorded his debut album at age 15. It was released by Hollywood Records in September 2006, and reached number 14 on the Billboard 200. In the fall of 2007, McCartney co-wrote the hit song 'Bleeding Love' with Ryan Tedder of OneRepublic, but gave it away to British singer Leona Lewis for her debut album 'Spirit', and when it was released as a single it topped both the UK and US charts. He released his third album, 'Departure', in May 2008 in the United States and Canada, and musically it was a departure from his early works, showcasing more mature themes, and once again it reached number 14 on the Billboard 200. 'Departure' was re-released in April 2009 as 'Departure: Recharged', with four new songs, and a remix of 'How Do You Sleep?' with rapper-actor Ludacris. 

On 16 August 2010, McCartney announced the release of 'Shake', the first single from his upcoming fourth studio album, would be released after Labor Day. 'Shake' was sent out to radio stations on 8 September 2010 and was released digitally on 21 September 2010, and it peaked at number 54 on the Hot 100. On 18 October 2010, it was announced that 'Have It All' would be released in January 2011, but then in November it was revealed that the album launch would be brought forward to 28 December 2010, the Tuesday following Christmas. However, on 3 December he announced through his Facebook page that he had pushed the release date for the album back to early 2011. In April 2011 McCartney responded to a question on his Twitter page about the delay, saying "the release of 'Have It All' has been put on hold until we hear about the outcome of Locke & Key", the television series in which he had a lead role. At the end of the year he said via his WhoSay page that 2012 was still the magic year for the record to finally come out, although his mother posted on Twitter that the replacement of the President of his label, Hollywood Records in January 2012 was delaying its release. In an exclusive interview in the March 2013 issue of Glamouholic magazine, he confirmed that the release of his anticipated fourth studio album would happen within this year, but 'Have It All' would never receive an official release, with only a limited number of promo albums as evidence that it ever existed. He did eventually release his official fourth studio album 'In Technicolor' in 2014, but if you want to hear 'Have It All' then just grab it from here.
