Out the Box (Jean album)

Out the Box is the second studio album release by Puerto Rican singer-songwriter Jean and was released on December 9, 2008, in digital-only format by Sony BMG. The album consists of ten tracks, five of them in English and another five translated in Spanish.

Background
According to Jean's MySpace profile, the purpose of the album's unique format (with five English songs and five Spanish-translated songs) was to appeal more to the American audience, both English and Spanish-speaking people. The album was released in digital-only format, and sold on the iTunes Store, Rhapsody and Microsoft's Zune Marketplace in three different formats. The standard version is sold on Rhapsody, another version is sold on iTunes with two bonus tracks, and another version is sold on the Zune Marketplace with two other different bonus tracks.

Although Jean has been signed to a major record label since 2006, both On and Out the Box have received very little promotion, and promotion for the albums depend solely online mainly through MySpace and iTunes. On January 20, 2008, however, two of the album tracks, "Stop the Clock" and the Spanish version "Peligro de Extinción" were released on iTunes as both the "Single of the Week" and the "Canción de la Semana" (Song of the Week).
