Reyez started singing at a young age. Inspired by her father's talent for playing acoustic guitar, and singing Colombian boleros, Jessie was destined to be a creative herself. It came naturally to Jessie, as she began writing lyrics and adopting her father's talents for the guitar. But before Reyez became serious about music, she was a committed student, and studied hip-hop dance from junior high into high school. However, after a traumatic breakup with her first serious boyfriend when she was 17, Jessie poured her heartache back into music. Reyez was then introduced to Chicago-based hip-hop artist King Louie. Soon, Reyez was approached to share her songwriting and vocal talents with such notables as Calvin Harris, Babyface, Chance the Rapper. Reyez was focused on building an audience for her own work however, and in April 2017, she released a seven-song EP, 'Kiddo', which includes tracks "Figures" and "Gatekeeper". Reyez followed EP with standalone "Phone Calls" and "Cotton Candy".
In March 2018, Reyez released a reprised version of "Figures" which was performed live alongside fellow Toronto-based artist Daniel Caesar at the Juno Awards. She recieved Breakthrough Artist of the Year, dedicating the win to Canadian artists.
Reyez, currently touring with singer-songwriter Halsey in North America, commemorated her recent success with a new single: "Apple Juice".
Con el Viento
Jessie Reyez Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
La casa está encendida
Si me quedo es suicida
Dices que no lo volves a hacer
Promesas que no oigo
Yo ya te conozco
Ya no tengo nada
Ni mi llorada
Me dejaste seca
Me pasa por terca
Y me advirtieron que no te amara
Que haces lo que te da la gana
Cuando se te ocurre
Cuando ya te aburres
Y me ves llorar
Y te sentis mal en el momento
Vuelvo a perdonar
Mentis otra vez
Y yo me arrepiento
Este infierno yo ya lo conozco bien
Necesito paz ya no lloro mas
Me voy con el viento
Probablemente siempre te amare
Eso es lo mas triste
No creo que lo supiste
No sabes amar
Tampoco sos culpable
Es la culpa de tus padres
Ya no tengo nada
Ni corazón
Ni mi llorada
Me dejaste seca
Eso me pasa por terca
Y me dijeron que no te amara
Que haces lo que te da la gana
Cuando se te ocurre
Cuando ya te aburres
Y me ves llorar
Y te sentis mal en el momento
Vuelvo a perdonar
Mentis otra vez
Y yo me arrepiento
Este infierno yo ya lo conozco bien
Pero necesito paz ya no lloro mas
Me voy con el viento
The lyrics to Jessie Reyez's song Con el Viento delve into the complexities of a toxic relationship. The song speaks of a couple who, despite their frequent fights and promises to change, cannot help but continue their destructive cycle. The opening lines "Peleamos otra vez, la casa está encendida" (We fight again, the house is on fire) set the tone for the rest of the song, as it becomes clear that the singer feels trapped and suicidal in the relationship.
Throughout the song, the singer acknowledges her own stubbornness in continuing to love someone who consistently breaks her heart, with lines like "Me pasa por terca" (This happens to me because of my stubbornness) and "Me dijeron que no te amara" (They told me not to love you). She accepts that the person she loves may not know how to love her in return, and that this is partly due to their upbringing ("Es la culpa de tus padres" - It's your parents' fault). Despite her love for this person, she realizes that she needs to leave in order to find peace and stop the cycle of tears and forgiveness.
Overall, Con el Viento is a powerful song that explores the complexities of toxic relationships and the difficulty of breaking free from them.

We fight again
The house is on fire
If I stay that will be suicidal
You say you wont do it again
Promise that I dont hear
I already know you
I dont have anything
Neither my heart
Nor my tears
You left me dry
That happens for not listening
And they warned me not to love you
That you do whatever you want
When it occurs to you
When you get bored
And you see me cry
And you feel bad in the moment
I forgive you again
You lie again and I regret it
This hell I already know to well
I need peace
I dont cry anymore
Im going with the wind
Probably... I will always love you
That's the saddest part
I dont think you knew
You dont know how to love
That's not your fault
Is the fault of your parents
I dont have anything
Neither my heart
Nor my tears
You left me dry
That happens for not listening
And they told me not to love you
That you do whatever you want
When it occurs to you
When you get bored
And you see me cry
And you feel bad in the moment
I forgive you again
You lie again
And I regret it
This hell I know it to well
But I need peace
I dont cry no more
I'm going with the wind

For ENGLISH speakers, I relate to this song so much that I decided to cover it in English..
>With The Wind< -Jessie Reyez
We’re arguing again..
The house is on fire,
If I stay it’s just suicide,
You say you’ll never do it again,
Promises I don’t hear,
I already know you,
I don’t have anything,
Not my heart,
Or my tears,
You left me dry,
What I get for being stubborn,
And they warned me not to love you,
And that you do whatever you want,
When you realize,
When you’re bored,
And you see me cry,
And you feel bad in the moment,
I forgive you again,
You lie again,
And then I regret it,
This Hell I already know too well,
I need peace,
I don’t cry anymore,
I go with the wind,
Problematically,
I’ll always love you..
That’s the sad part,
I don’t think you knew,
You don’t know how to love,
That’s not your fault,
It’s your parents fault,
I don’t have anything,
Not my heart,
Or my tears,
You left me dry,
What I get for being stubborn,
And they told me not to love you,
That you do whatever you want,
When you realize,
When you’re bored..
And you see me cry,
And you feel bad in the moment,
I forgive you again,
You lie again,
And I regret it..
This Hell I already know too well,
But I need peace,
I don’t cry anymore,
I go with the wind..

En español se siente una pasión diferente, como que se sabe que canta desde la raíz de su corazón! que lindo como mete su acentuación caleña.

Esta canción define absolutamente todo lo que sentí por dos años seguidos con el que pensaba que era el amor de mi vida. Me sane, crecí y ahora tengo al amor de mi vida y estamos esperando una bebita. Hablen no se queden calladas, si te pega, humilla , controla NO TE AMA .
