  • For such a young career, singer-songwriter Jessie Reyez has had an interesting path to mainstream music. Her interest in music started with playing the guitar as a child in Toronto, then later writing her own music in high school. She left Canada for Miami after graduating, only to come home and pursue her dreams in 2014. This lead to her releasing the song “Figures” in 2016, which is currently at 16 million streams and counting on Spotify and 334,000 Soundcloud plays. “Figures” centers a heartbroken Reyez, wishing she could feel less embarrassed about dedicating herself to an untrustworthy lover.

    I'm kinda shocked about the amount of people saying she looks "dirty" LMFAOAOAO she looks like she has her own style would it make y'all feel better if she maybe had on a mesh too exposing her breast and maybe some tight jeans squeezing her body uncomfortably like😭😭😭😂y'all mad corny

    I swear she had to witness my whole relationship. I also stayed with my boyfriend after being cheated on and left while pregnant. He was the one to actually send me this song. He told me this song reminded him of me and what I went through with him. I'm happy to say he is doing really good and we're expecting our second child. Even though we're doing really well in our relationship, every time I listen to this song, it still brings out those raw, painful emotions. I can't stop listening to her album though. Figures is my favorite song.

    Is it weird that I always come back to this video when i'm going through it with this guy because i get comfort from what she's saying. It makes me feel like I'm not alone. Many other girls share the same thoughts and feelings when a guy screws them over. For some reason I find comfort knowing that.

    It's crazy how I ended up knowing about this song. My ex actually told me to listen to this, he said it reminded him of me. He's was like when I first heard it I heard you saying those words to me. We've always connected with music that was our way expressing our feelings.

      I've seen a lot of people say that and it seems to be very accurate lol even tho I only really remember Duffy from "Mercy" and her one mellow song. It's still pretty accurate. Like a belting Duffy in a way but with an accent. (Forgot Jessie's nationality)
