Jacquelyn Suzette Wright-Johnson is an American singer and songwriter. She has released five studio albums and is part of the Okayplayer collective. Wright has performed and collaborated alongside rap acts such as the Roots, Jay-Z, and Blackalicious.

Career

Wright was brought to the attention of hip-hop group the Roots in 1998, which eventually led to her going on tour with them. She later appeared on MTV Unplugged as a back-up singer for Jay-Z in 2001,[1] and was featured in a Coca-Cola advert as part of the brand's "Nu Soul" campaign.[2] She has released two solo albums to date: Denials Delusions and Decisions in 2002, and Divorcing Neo 2 Marry Soul in 2005.[3] Wright also recorded an album titled ...And Your Point Is? which was due for release in 2003 on MCA Records (who also distributed her debut), before the label folded. Many of the tracks recorded for that album later appeared on Divorcing Neo 2 Marry Soul, which debuted at number 62 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart in July 2005.[4]

In March 2008, she toured Europe with Bahamadia and Hezekiah for the "Philly Sounds" tour. Wright did not perform any new material on the tour, but did live cover versions of Cherrelle's "Saturday Love" and Crystal Waters' "Gypsy Woman (She's Homeless)". During the tour, Wright announced that she was in the process of writing a novel, and working on a third album. No release dates have been confirmed for either as of yet. In February 2010, Vibe reported that her third album, titled 3D, was slated for a summer release, and was the outgrowth of what she'd planned as a five-track digital EP.[5] The lead single, "Beautiful", was released in Fall 2009.[5]

In 2019, Wright released the 5-song EP titled "Lost" on Bandcamp.[6] In 2020, Wright made headlines via social media regarding issues such as the trajectory of her music career, her fallout with several members of the Roots, and her grievances with artists such as Jill Scott, Erykah Badu and Mary J. Blige, as well as a claim that her then boyfriend Common sexually assaulted her after performing a concert in the mid-2000s.[7][8] Jaguar Wright has since then in 2020 apologised to Tiffany Haddish, who was dating Common at the time for wrongly accusing Common of sexual assault.[9][10]
