The heiress to the raw and real giants of soul music, the D.C.-born singer-songwriter catapulted to success in 2019 through her debut album, Shea Butter Baby. The project, now with over 1.3 billion global streams, spawned major hits: the RIAA platinum- certified title track featuring J. Cole, and gold-certified singles “BMO" and "Whipped Cream," and "Up Late," whose intimate video drew praise from ESSENCE, Noisey, Pitchfork, and Billboard. Lennox also has awards recognition with nominations at the Grammys for her contribution on Dreamville's album, Revenge of the Dreamers III, three 2019 Soul Train Awards, and two 2020 NAACP Awards. In 2021, she introduced her second chapter with the R&B throwback, "Pressure," produced by legendary hitmakers Jermaine Dupri, Bryan Michael Cox and Johnta Austin - becoming her first solo Billboard Hot 100 hit and dominating radio airwaves – flying to No. 1 on the magazine’s Adult R&B Airplay chart and No. 2 overall at R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay – all while racking up over 128 million global streams.
