Her love of music and fierce independence has led Stone to break away from the constraints of being tied to a label and has enabled her to explore many different genres of music. The Joy that she finds in her chosen artistry has helped her to forge ahead, always looking to break new ground both musically and in her life.
In 2015 her album ‘Water for Your Soul’ was released, achieving number-one reggae album on release and voted best reggae album by Billboard. ‘Water For Your Soul’ is rooted in reggae and sprinkled with world influences. Clearly demonstrating how the teen soul prodigy has blossomed into an artist of style and substance. It is an album that pulses with liquid grooves and dazzles with the mix and match sonic adventure of hip-hop, shimmering with the exotic sounds of world music whilst delivering the emotional belt of RnB.
Joss has completed her most audacious project to date – The Total World Tour – in which she has performed a gig and collaborated with local artists in over 200 countries around the world.
It is evident that Stone is an independent soul. A true free spirit. Some may call her rebellious, others would say that she is a young woman who is completely confident in her chosen direction and is at peace with all that that means.
