Fifteen-year-old Courtney ‘Coco’ Jones is an up-and-coming actress, pop singer and rapper. Yea, you might remember her from Radio Disney’s Next Big Thing, or from last summer’s Disney Channel Original Movie, Let It Shine. She’s guest-starred on the Disney Channel’s So Random! and Good Luck Charlie, is set to perform at the Radio Disney Music Awards next month, and slated to tour with boy band Mindless Behavior in May. Phew, that’s a lot!

Coco’s latest hit single “Holla at the DJ” is featured on her new EP and it’s been receiving plenty of love from online fans—and rightfully so since the song is fun upbeat and highlights her strong vocals. Slightly reminiscent of Rihanna’s 2006 hit “Pon de Replay” (maybe the ‘new Beyonce’ isn’t quite the right comparison after all), the song really just makes us want to get up and dance.

Also included in Made Of are “World is Dancing,” “Déjà Vu” and the EP’s title track. Each song is just as bright and club vibe-y as the last—the perfect soundtrack for a slumber party or a solo rock-out around your room after a long day. And while we’d love to have seen a bit more versatility from Coco, this four-song EP proves that she’s got all the talent and potential to do it in the future.

Our conclusion: Keep an eye on this one because Coco’s got all the makings of the next big pop star.
