Jessie Reyez on Heartbreak, Healing, and Her Hungriest Album Yet
Jessie Reyez doesn’t just make music — she sets it on fire. In this episode of Spout, she joins Tamara Dhia to talk about her third studio album Yessie, why it hits harder, and how sobriety reshaped her sound and her soul. She opens up about the raw emotion behind viral heartbreak anthem “Couldn’t Be Me,” the family pain that inspired “Goliath,” and how a sweet voice memo from Sam Smith turned into a verbal hug heard ‘round the world.
Plus: Jessie reveals how sliding into Lil Wayne’s DMs led to a career milestone, the spiritual connection she shares with Big Sean, and what it was really like working with icons like Eminem, Beyoncé, and Drake (including the now-infamous “I’m hungry for life” moment). If you’ve ever been heartbroken, healed, or just awkward in front of your idols, this one’s for you.
