Recent singles like "My Best Life" (watch the official video HERE) and "One Missed Call" mark an inspiring new era for PJ's unique artistry. Indeed Essence hailed "One Missed Call" as "a colorful nod to Stevie Wonder," further praising the track's "vibrant video" - streaming HERE - for "(featuring) dancing, tons of black girl magic, and a message to listen to your intuition."

Paloma Ford)"), and Wiz Khalifa ("True Colors (Feat. Nicki Minaj)") among her many credits along with incredible collaborations with G-Eazy, Ty Dolla $ign, and more. Her single, "Tell Me (Feat.
