The latter two were released as singles from the recharged edition. ==Album information== It has been described by McCartney as a complete change in musical style compared to his previous releases. About the new album, he said, "I'm shooting for Prince chord changes, Michael () melodies, and the bigness of Madonna - fun '80s stuff. That's the best that I can put it". Producers on the album include Tricky Stewart, The-Dream, Sean Garrett, The Clutch, Brian Kennedy, and J. R. Rotem. The album leaked April 30, 2008, almost three weeks before the release date. ''Departure'' was released one week early on the Canadian iTunes Store. The CD was released using CDVU+ technology.

McCartney said that the five new tracks, including three brand-new compositions, would be available for individual sale online for those who already own ''Departure''. McCartney said the following about the re-release: "I kind of want to rejuvenate the album a little bit and make it fresh again for everyone and make sure if they haven't checked it out yet that they will this time".〔http://www.billboard.com/articles/news/269442/jesse-mccartney-leaning-rb-on-new-songs〕 The songs, "Leavin", "It's Over", and "How Do You Sleep" were frequently played on Radio Disney.
