UNO Award-winning pop singer and songwriter JESSIA returned with hew new single, “Care About Me” today. Guided by JESSIA’s signature soul-stirring vocals, “Care About Me” is beautifully crafted pop ballad that tugs at the heartstrings.

When JESSIA began teasing “Care About Me” on TikTok and Instagram earlier this year, she was met with an overwhelming response from other people who emotionally resonated with the song’s message. “I was terrified to tease it, but as soon as I did, my video comments were flooded with people sharing their stories of feeling unseen or alone in relationships, and other commenters empowering the broken-hearted,” JESSIA says. “I am proud to say it has become another ‘safe space’ anthem for my community.”
With over 375 million collective global streams, JESSIA has taken the music industry by storm, capturing the hearts of fans across the world with her raw talent, dazzling pop melodies and heart-wrenching lyricism. She made her explosive introduction in 2021 with the viral single, “I’m Not Pretty.” Racking up over hundreds of millions of streams and views, the single caught the attention of GRAMMY nominated artist Bebe Rexha, who later joined JESSIA on the track remix. She kept the buzz going with the release of her debute EP, How Are You?, which was met with widespread support from iHeart, SiriusXM and Billboard.
