Alexia Jayy<\/a> was revealed as the winner of\u00a0The Voice<\/a><\/em> Season 29 during the April 14 finale<\/a>, but since the show was filmed months ago, she\u2019s already been hard at work on new music. In fact, she released her first single called \u201cRent Free\u201d right after the finale aired.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m super excited about it,\u201d Alexia tells TV Insider. Since filming\u00a0The Voice<\/em> last year, Alexia has been hard at work in the studio \u201cworking on [her] album,\u201d which she says is coming soon. For now, though, she\u2019s urging her fans to enjoy \u201cRent Free\u201d while she finishes the full project.<\/p>\n Alexia won the show after being coached<\/a> by Adam Levine<\/a>. \u201cMy favorite part of the show was him always comforting me,\u201d she shares. \u201cHe always told me, \u2018It\u2019s OK to be nervous, that\u2019s fine, but go out there and kill it. It made me feel good to know there are artists who have done these amazing things and still get nervous, simply because they want things to turn out really good. And it\u2019s OK to have that feeling.\u201d<\/p>\n She raves that Levine was an \u201camazing coach\u201d and reveals that they\u2019ve maintained a \u201cgreat relationship\u201d since the show. \u201cI was so nervous at the beginning and he could not believe I was nervous,\u201d Alexia admits. \u201cHe was like, \u2018Whatever you do, just keep doing that. Don\u2019t change it. You do really good when you\u2019re nervous.\u2019 So that really changed my perspective on being nervous and now I\u2019m way more confident when I sing. I love singing. I love performing. The only reason I really get nervous is because I want to do good and that\u2019s a normal thing for any artist.\u201d<\/p>\n During the finale, Alexia had all three coaches in tears when she performed a gorgeous rendition of Adele<\/a>\u2018s \u201cOne and Only,\u201d which she says she didn\u2019t expect. \u201cTo have people that are as legendary as Adam Levine, Kelly Clarkson<\/a>, and John Legend<\/a> sitting in front of me crying because they were feeling what I felt when I was singing a song was the most wonderful feeling I ever had,\u201d she confirms. \u201cIt felt like everything I\u2019ve been doing is worth it.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
