If you're looking for your next repeat-worthy listen, Jaylon’s new EP Baby Boy deserves a spot at the top of your playlist. The Nigerian-born, Bristol-based producer and songwriter has crafted a genre-blending, soul-soothing project that speaks to both the heart and the hips. Fusing Afro R&B with global influences, Baby Boy is more than a debut—it’s a statement of identity, creativity, and pure musical joy. Here are five reasons why Baby Boy should be your next go-to EP:
It’s a Celebration of Afro R&B With Global Flavor
Baby Boy isn’t confined by borders or trends. Jaylon blends Afro R&B with elements of soul, pop, dancehall, and UK minimalism—creating a rich, multicultural sound that feels fresh, familiar, and boundary-pushing all at once.
Jaylon’s Production Is Next-Level
Known for his work with Mr Eazi, DJ Tunez, and Odumodublvck, Jaylon brings a refined ear for melody, space, and rhythm. His signature minimal-yet-emotive production style lets every track breathe, while still packing enough punch to move a dancefloor or stir a memory.
The Collaborations Are Carefully Curated
Featuring standout talents like Azanti, Minz, Anjeli, and Remy Baggins, the EP feels like a true creative ensemble. Jaylon doesn’t just collect features—he builds sonic chemistry, giving each artist room to shine while maintaining a cohesive vibe.
It’s Music That Feels Good Without Losing Depth
Baby Boy is rooted in joy, nostalgia, and self-expression. It's uplifting without being shallow, laid-back without being empty. Jaylon crafts songs you can dance to, chill with, and come back to when you need a mood reset.
It’s a Defining Moment for a Rising Artist
Jaylon has been quietly shaping the Afro-fusion scene for years. Baby Boy is his first solo statement—and it marks a pivotal moment in his evolution. If you're looking to discover the future of Afro R&B, this is where to start.
