Jessie Murph with Stella Lefty – Her career began with hymns for the brokenhearted. In 2024, Jessie Murph released her debut album

That Ain’t No Man That’s the Devil—a certified Gold project that chased her 2023 mixtape Drowning—and catalyzed what quickly became Jessie’s signature sound. The pain in her lyrics was only amplified by the rawness of her vocals, as cuts like the Platinum “Wild Ones” with Jelly Roll and “Dirty” with Teddy Swims showcased the tale of a heartbroken girl from childhood to womanhood. She’s reached uncharted success in record time, and while some of the wounds have healed over, the scars remain. With Sex Hysteria, Jessie is here to make those scars beautiful, tapping into pleasure over pain and progress over passivity. Jessie’s storytelling takes center stage as she confronts the past head-on with the poignant “Gucci Mane,” the first track released this era. Jessie isn’t singing from the bottom of the well any longer; she’s clawed her way out and ready to ride the waves of superstardom.

Born in Nashville, Tennessee yet raised in Alabama, Jessie’s early life was spent bouncing between a small town and a moderately big city. Her family moved from Nashville when Jessie was five, first settling into Huntsville, Alabama—where she became a trained figure skater—before calling the small city of Athens home. There, she became a competitive cheerleader, where she was urged to be demure when all she wanted to do was break free. The balancing act of being a free spirit in a conservative environment was tempered by a growing buzz on TikTok, which ultimately barred her from continuing to shake her pom poms. She ventured into music full-time, and in 2021 Jessie inked a deal with Columbia Records.

While putting together her early work, it was clear that her songwriting became a source of therapy. As an Alabama girl making multi-genre music, Jessie quickly rose up the Pop ranks with her brutal honesty, detailing everything from childhood trauma to grown woman heartache in her songs. Her debut album That Ain’t No Man That’s the Devil, reached Gold status and cracked the Top 25 on the Billboard 200, where her Platinum “Wild Ones” with Jelly Roll reached nearly 300M streams on Spotify alone. The song also scored Jessie two nominations at the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards including Best Pop Collaboration for “Wild Ones” and Best PUSH Artist. Another standout collaboration on the project was “Someone In This Room” with Bailey Zimmerman and “High Road” ft. Koe Wetzel, which marked their highest debut yet on the Billboard Hot 100 at #29 and #1 on the Billboard Country Radio Chart.

Jessie’s global headline tour sold over 85,000 tickets and featured major festival sets at Governor’s Ball,

Boston Calling, BottleRock, and a return to her home state’s Hangout Festival for the second year in a row. She recently wrapped the second leg of her In the Sticks North American headline tour—with a special arena finale, Live For One Night, at the Von Braun Center in her hometown of Huntsville, Alabama (with over 10,000 tickets sold). Jessie also made her Coachella debut this April, marking another major milestone in her live performance journey. In July of 2025, she kicked off her largest tour to date, the WORLDWIDE HYSTERIA tour. As her life changed, so did the process of her healing. She tapped into all of her favorite things—some music, some vices. The culmination of that is her sophomore album Sex Hysteria, which debuted at #8 on the Billboard 200 chart, marking her first top 10 project. 

Sex Hysteria is a nod to the many ways in which people achieve their dopamine fix. “Sex” being the metaphor for ultimate pleasure (and at times the literal driving force), Jessie takes us on a ride through her train of thought. A taste of that hysteria was the track “Blue Strips,” a fun yet seductive cut which earned her highest Billboard Hot 100 chart position to date at #15 and features none other than Sexyy Red on the remix. The color pink is its own storyteller for Jessie, as it represents both poise and kink and remains a common theme throughout Sex Hysteria.  

The album’s tracks meet at an unlikely intersection of ‘60s Pop and early 2000’s Trap: a corner that Jessie currently calls her musical home. Songs like the melodic “Touch Me Like A Gangster” bring that sonic vision to life, along with the fan favorite “Gucci Mane” and the intoxicating title track. Speaking of Gucci Mane, Guwop himself checks in on the bouncy “Donuts,” with an added check-in from Lil Baby on the moody “Best Behavior.”

Jessie Murph has never been chasing fame, she’s been chasing freedom, and with Sex Hysteria this is her declaration of independence. She no longer has to sing about surviving a storm, when she’s the hurricane now.
