At only 20-years-old, Jorja Smith has gone from a high school student and part-time Starbucks barista to releasing tracks on Spotify that garner millions of listens in only a couple of days.  Smith hails from Walsall, West Midlands, UK where she met her manager at the age of 15.   Despite her youth, she has already worked with some of the most prominent names in the R&B/Hip-Hop such as producer Black Coffee.  She was even featured on two tracks (“Get it Together” and “Jorja Interlude”) off Drake’s recent mixtape, More Life. Let’s take a look at her past and present.
