It can only be a great week when it opens with a collaboration from Jessie Reyez and Daniel Caesar. The two darlings of contemporary R&B / Soul music were honoured in Vancouver at last night’s 2018 JUNO awards as Breakthrough Artist of the Year and R&B/Soul Recording of the Year, respectively. They also delivered a stunningly evocative surprise performance of a new collaboration. Later on that eve, Figures, A Reprise was released in full.
Figures, A Reprise re-imagines Jessie Reyez’ breakout single, Figures bringing Reyez’ passionate delivery with Caesar’s more mellowed-out crooning. It makes for the most magical, Soul-rousing music. Had it on repeat all morning.
Listen to the new single below and watch the duo’s JUNO Awards performance up top.
