The Art of Confessing

The Art of Confessing is an intimate diary entry from Jazmine Sullivan, a Grammy-winning vocal powerhouse blessed with the unique gift of emotional storytelling. R&B is a space for Black women to create their own language around love, sexuality, and heartache. Within that space, Jazmine Sullivan has built a strong, powerful sisterhood through her music.

Philadelphia-born and raised, Jazmine grew up singing in church. Since childhood, she’s leaned on a tight-knit circle of female figures—from her mother to her church tribe to her faithful friend group. Love is what happens when you find your people, and this community has shaped Jazmine Sullivan’s journey as an artist and woman. This Words + Music brings listeners into her journey, exploring the art of making confessional R&B and affirming Black women as the ultimate truthtellers in music.

Written and conceived by Jazmine Sullivan with Clover Hope, this is a story about the power of accountability, sisterhood, and finding new perspectives on love. Performing live from Philadelphia’s renowned World Café, Jazmine lets us into her world with a selection of songs that speak to her growth as a woman, including "Lions, Tigers & Bears", "Let It Burn", "Girl Like Me", "Masterpiece", and "Pick Up Your Feelings". Ultimately, self-love has allowed Jazmine Sullivan to evolve and step into her power.
