Jorja Smith Releases 3rd Album 'What Are the Odds' With P2J

Summary

  • Jorja Smith has issued her third album, 'What Are the Odds', on her own label, with the record built largely in one-on-one sessions with Nigerian-British producer P2J.
  • 12 tracks are not specified, but the album is framed as a short, dancefloor-focused set with no ballads, pairing late-night production with Smith’s restrained, flexible vocals.
  • Songs including 'What’s Done Is Done' and 'I Lied, You Lied' move through UK garage, jazz-tinged Afrobeat and house, extending the stylistic range Smith has shown across recent collaborations.
  • 2025 and 2026 guest spots with AJ Tracey and Nia Archives, plus April’s 'Price of It All' tied to Riz Ahmed’s series 'Bait', had already kept Smith on a strong run into this release.
