Jessie Reyez Receives First GRAMMY Nomination For ‘Being Human In Public – EP’

Toronto singer-songwriter Jessie Reyez has been nominated for a GRAMMY Award for her standout sophomore EP release Being Human In Public.

The Best Urban Contemporary Album nomination comes on the heels of her just-released singles “Far Away” and cover version of Patsy Cline’s iconic “Crazy” which arrived as part of Apple Music’s Up Next program, a fitting modern take on the country classic, from her highly anticipated debut album slated for early 2020 on FMLY / Island.

In the past year, Reyez solidified her foundation as one of the most hyped new artists by releasing a string of critically acclaimed songs, a duet performance of the GOLD-CERTIFIED reimagined hit “Imported” with 6LACK on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, a headlining tour, performances at a plethora of music festivals, and collaborations with many notable artists including EminemKehlaniDaniel CaesarRomeo SantosLewis CapaldiKarol GBea Miller and has co-writing credits on Dua Lipa‘s hit summer song “One Kiss” with Calvin Harris and “Promises” with Calvin Harris and Sam Smith.
