“[Jorja’s] voice, soothing and substantial, is filled with an aching that suggests she was born to counsel the world’s suffering. She’s tried on a variety of styles thus far, from boho R&B to fizzy pop to EDM, her vocals acting as strong connective tissue.” – KRISTIN CORRY, PITCHFORK
“Up against a world in which R&B singers have become cannon fodder, Smith is clearly nobody’s beautiful little fool. She is already a versatile, fully formed creative, and some of the songs she sings on this humid night in July will make up the most hotly anticipated UK debut album of 2018. You just feel sorry for anyone running against her for any prizes next year.” – KITTY EMPIRE, THE GUARDIAN
“Jorja Smith’s voice – part Amy Winehouse, part Lauryn Hill, part Rihanna – sends your mind hurtling elsewhere. She has a timeless, distinctive, powerful voice that makes it impossible to focus on the gig as you race off into fantasies, dreams and painful memories.” – LUCAS FOTHERGILL, THE INDEPENDENT
