Jess Young - Crying And Smoking (Beyond Chicago Extended Part 1)

❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥 Priority Release!!!

Hot on the heels of “Nobody’s Love,” Jess Young returns with a new dancefloor directed collaboration, this time with Beyond Chicago.

Beyond Chicago’s hit record “Million Dollar Bill”, featuring Majestic and Alex Mills, made quite the statement in 2023 with the song blowing up all over TikTok and reaching #1 in both the UK hot 50 and the TikTok Viral Chart. It also made a big impact in the Big Top 40 Charts reaching #18. It spent multiple weeks in the OCC top 100 and has amassed 21m streams on Spotify alone.

Whilst Jess doesn’t make music solely for the dancefloor, as soon as she became aware that getting Beyond Chicago involved in her artist project was a possibility, she jumped at the chance. ‘Whilst some of the songs that I write might cover challenging times that I’ve experienced, I like the thought of them being heard in a complete range of environments,’ Jess said. ‘The dancefloor is always a place of heightened emotion and some of my personal dancefloor favourites by other artists are songs of longing or dreaming about better times, and I think it's kind of beautiful the way that difficult experiences and emotions can translate and connect that way.

Whilst the Irish singer-songwriter continues work on her debut long player and lines up live dates across forthcoming months, expect this release to find her new fans. With radio, press and platform support from BBC Introducing, RTE Radio Ireland, Hot Press Magazine, Apple Music, and Amazon (to name a few) already in the bag, Jess ends 2025 on a high note—ready to make 2026 her biggest year yet.
