Jessica Peros

Jessica Peros is a dynamic R&B pop singer-songwriter from St. Petersburg, Florida, now making waves in Jersey City, New Jersey. She grew up performing as a child actor for brands like Disney and SeaWorld, but in 2022 she found her true calling in music, landing her first Billboard number one placement. Since then, she’s been blending soulful melodies with polished songwriting and her own unapologetic “baddie” energy, building a sound that feels both fresh and timeless.

In her 4Cee Sessions podcast segment, Jessica opens up about her journey, from mornings listening to her Puerto Rican opera-singer abuela and singing in church choirs, to exploring genres like EDM, pop, and R&B before finding the style that truly feels like her. She talks about the heartbreak and growth behind her debut EP Should’ve Known Better, how her learning disability shaped her clever wordplay, and why vulnerability is at the heart of her music.

We also get into the story of her latest single “Pressure,” which started as a beat she almost passed on before turning into the song it is. Jessica shares what it’s like collaborating with other songwriters, running her own lip gloss brand, and setting big goals like releasing a song every month and performing on the biggest stages in the world.
