After commanding the New Zealand hip-hop scene to take notice in 2017 following the delivery of a compelling performance as the first female MC to perform on David Dallas’ Red Bull 64 Bars, JessB continues a thrilling trajectory of releases in 2020 that have extended attention globally and proved the rapper is here to stay.  Now, with the release of her 3 Nights in Amsterdam mixtape, JessB masters new sounds with hype-inducing confidence propelling her rising status even higher.
