Natalie Renée McIntyre (born September 6, 1967), known professionally as Macy Gray, is an American R&B and soul singer. She is known for her distinctive raspy voice and a singing style heavily influenced by Billie Holiday. Her 1999 single, "I Try", was her commercial breakthrough; the song peaked at number five on the Billboard Hot 100, won Best Female Pop Vocal Performance at the 43rd Annual Grammy Awards, and preceded her debut studio album, On How Life Is (1999). Since then, she has released ten studio albums.
Gray has won a Grammy Award from five nominations, and sold over 25 million records worldwide by 2018. She has appeared in several films, including Training Day, Spider-Man, Scary Movie 3, Lackawanna Blues, Idlewild, For Colored Girls, and The Paperboy.
