What it is

"Who You Are" is the title track of Jessie J's 2011 debut album, written with Toby Gad and Shelly Peiken and produced by Gad, and released as the album's fifth UK single in November 2011. It is about staying true to yourself and not losing your identity in whatever situation you are in, and Jessie J has called it her most personal song.
