JessB has left a clear message on her debut album: we are bearing witness to an artist standing in her power.
Blurring the lines between sounds and ushering in a new wave of Afro-pop and dancehall, JessB flirts with mid-tempo drums and tender lyricism (“Hold Me Down”), buzzy sharp-tongued wit (“Power” ft. Sister Nancy and Sampa The Great), and club-ready desire (“Ring Ring” ft. Gold Fang).
Feels Like Home sounds global, an exportable collection ready to take JessB far from home base.
