Jessie Reyez has released “UR HEARTBEAT,” the third single from her forthcoming fourth studio album ‘A Little Vengeance’, arriving June 12 via FMLY / Island Records. The track comes with an official visual and lands as one of the most emotionally direct things the Grammy-nominated, 6x Juno-winning singer-songwriter has put her name on.
The song lives in a smooth, late-night R&B atmosphere, built around soft hypnotic production, warm harmonies, and subtle wah pedal textures that give the whole thing a hazy, searching quality. Reyez looks back on a past relationship with quiet longing, not for the pain, but for the intimacy that once anchored everything. “I don’t miss all the lying, but I miss your heartbeat,” she sings, and the line lands with the kind of emotional precision that has always set her apart.
The New Yorker calls her music defined by “breathtaking candor.” The New York Times describes it as carrying “vintage elegance, measured sweetness and an underlying fury.” Both land on something true about what Reyez does, and “UR HEARTBEAT” leans fully into the vulnerable, soulful side of that range.
“UR HEARTBEAT” follows 2 strong singles already out from ‘A Little Vengeance’: “N.Y.F.F.,” a sharp rap-sung dismissal of a lying ex, and “AIN’T U TIRED?,” her collaboration with Muni Long. The 3 tracks together map a clear picture of where this album lives emotionally, and the range across them is impressive.
The rollout builds on a remarkable stretch for Reyez. Her 2025 album ‘PAID IN MEMORIES’ spanned over 20 tracks with collaborations including Ari Lennox, Big Sean, Miguel, Lil Yachty, 6LACK, Lil Wayne, and Deyaz, and a sold-out headline world tour followed. In March, she released ‘$TILL PAID’, a 5-track celebration of that album featuring a remix with BRIT Award-winning rapper Stormzy. She also launched the second volume of her USA Today Best-Selling poetry series, Words of A Goat Princess II: The People’s Purge.
Behind the scenes, Reyez has written for Dua Lipa, Sam Smith, Kehlani, LISA of BLACKPINK, and Calvin Harris. Her singles “Imported” featuring 6LACK and “Figures” are both RIAA-certified 2x Platinum. ‘A Little Vengeance’ arrives June 12.
