Jae Stephens, an r&b pop futurist originally from Dallas and now based in Los Angeles has been steadily building her profile since the release of her self-written and produced debut EP, ‘’f**k it I’ll do it myself,’’ in 2019. With tastemaker singles like ‘Got It Like That’ and ‘24K’ receiving praise from Fader, she has garnered attention and collaborations with artists such as THEY, VanJess, Khamari and Xavier Omar, further solidifying her status as an artist on the rise. Press coverage from notable platforms like Colors, Complex and Paper Magazine, as well as an invitation to perform with Khalid on SNL, have contributed to her growing recognition. Jae has also co-written with artists such as Jennifer Lopez, Latto, Anne Marie, Sinead Harnett, Tiana Major9, UMI and Maeta along the way and contributed to Blessing Offor’s Grammy nominated album My Tribe.

After a short hiatus, Stephens recently signed to Def Jam signalling a new chapter of her artistic journey. With the release of her latest EP Sellout featuring stand out singles ‘WET’ and ‘Body Favors’ it’s clear that Stephens is doing R&B on her own terms and dismantling the genre’s stereotypical expectations.
