Jazmine Sullivan: Tiny Desk (Home) Concert
Muzikë
The Tiny Desk is working from home for the foreseeable future. Introducing NPR Music's Tiny Desk (home) concerts, bringing you performances from across the country and the world. It's the same spirit - stripped-down sets, an intimate setting - just a different space.
Bobby Carter | January 8, 2021
I don't recall any other artist at the Tiny Desk harmonizing their own introduction, but Philadelphia's own Jazmine Sullivan didn't waste a second, greeting us all by flexing those once-in-a-generation chops from the jump. The singer-songwriter, draped in a trench coat while her band sports all black, are nestled in the corner of a dimly lit space resembling a cabaret.
We don't see or hear much from Jazmine Sullivan until she has something to get off her chest. She drops a body of work every five years or so, shakes up the world of R&B with each offering, then quietly goes back to minding her own business. Her latest project, Heaux Tales, is a bold and timely conversation piece addressing truths regarding relationships, sex, social norms, self-worth and a myriad of other topics that women graple with. Each song is masterfully connected to another through unique yet familiar testimonies by women from all walks of life.
She starts her Tiny Desk (home) concert with three extended and reworked selections from Heaux Tales, squeezes in thee fan favorite from 2015's Reality Show, then invites Tiny Desk alum H.E.R. to the stage to close with "Girl Like Me." Ms. Sullivan, her background vocalists and H.E.R. ate this performance up and left not a crumb on the floor.

Oh Jaz Girl! Loved this. I'm a lil mad at you for not doing that "You can't get away from love..." high note in LET IT BURN. I literally live for that part of the song. :-(
NPR did this because they realize that there are people out here that appreciate amazing and beautiful things. Jazmine Sullivan's voice is that "thing."

Love the new songs and then you bring H.E.R well...
Lost One made me shed waterfall tears T.T
I'm a BIG Jazmine Sullivan fan but i'm not really feeling the profanity, when she uses the word "b!tch" it just throws the whole song off. I noticed in her song "feelings" she uses the B word also. I'm not sure if she has changed her style to try to reach a younger audience but the profanity is unnecessary and makes her music sound CHEAP.

Have you not listened to her “Reality Show” album? There’s lots of cussing there... Also, she said at one point years ago that music wasn’t fun for her anymore. In a recent interview she said she was exploring a different concept with this EP and it’s a one and done.
Jazmine!!!! 🙌🏾😍
Unbelievable 😱🤭👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🔥🔥🔥
huhh all the cursing i'm not here for it

Three weeks ago, I could not name one Jasmine Sullivan song. It's almost 2 AM on 1/15/21 and I have been listening to this concert for HOURS. The Grammys better get it right this year. She already won!
so beautiful!
Love her 😩 Thank you tiny desk 😊
She really performed “Lost One” in the style of a praise & worship song!! She had me in the spirit!
😍😍😍😍, background singers are LOCKED
Lost one really took me to church. 😭😭
This Album is the anthem for 2021. Every song on constant repeat
🌈Beyoncé..Jazmine is also one of those voices where I also everything she does 🐝🖤🤎❤️🧡💛💚💙💜💖🤍

I've never even listened to Jazmine like that. I just felt like trying something new, and ended up falling in love with this woman! This definitely speaks to my soul. Thank you!
Ugh this was so gooood 😩🥺

Jazmine can sing the words off of the back of a cereal box and I’ll start bawling. She’s got “IT”.
In a world of raw vocals we get a gem like Jazmine!!! Underrated and highly under appreciated. This goddess deserves all the flowers
I can’t stop watching this ❤️
Wow! How come when I listen to this young woman she’s keeps just sounding better?
Girlllll you did thaaaaaat!!!!!

I SO wish she would make an unplugged album, with all of her live performances for this project. She’s so amazingly talented. I WOULD LISTEN IN THE SHOWER, ON THE PHONE, IN THE CAR, BY MYSELF, WITH MY FRIENDS...JEEZ GURL!

She is the cause of the conjunction of the planets. They're trying to ear hustle and hear where all this greatness is coming from.
