Union J have confirmed they will be making another album.
The former X Factor boyband have said whilst guest editing The Daily Star that they’re waiting on a “massive hit” that will give their career a boost and launch their new album. The boys said:
“Every song on our album is good but we want that massive hit that cuts over from very good to amazing, just like The Wanted did with ‘Glad You Came’. It’s really exciting as we’re not going to be complacent. We work well under pressure. With merchandise on our tour doing ridiculously well, we want our music to be as good as that. Our album was so diverse, almost too diverse, so we want to look at the songs the public like.”
Their self-titled debut album peaked at number 6 in the UK chart, despite a massive following since their departure from the X Factor last year. The boys also commented on their comparisons with fellow X Factor band One Direction:
“Louis Walsh, who was our mentor on The X Factor, said recently he expected us to have a number one by now. Everyone thought we were going to be the second One Direction in a minute because we were another boyband from the show. But they didn’t get as famous as they are until the first year and a half through their career.”
It is not yet known when the album is set for release. You can watch the official video for Union J’s lastest single “Loving You Is Easy” below:
