Decent Music PR, on behalf of Jaylon, Nigerian-born, Bristol-based Afro R&B producer and songwriter Jaylon announces the release of his new EP, Baby Boy — a sonic mosaic of upbeat rhythms, nostalgic grooves, and soulful collaborations that reflect a life lived between continents. Seamlessly blending Afro R&B with elements of dancehall, pop, and soul, Baby Boy represents a defining chapter in Jaylon’s evolution as a genre-fluid creator and storyteller.
Drawing from his formative years in Ibadan and Lagos, and shaped by the eclectic pulse of Bristol’s music scene, Jaylon fuses cultural richness with cutting-edge production. Featuring a handpicked ensemble of vocalists and producers from across Africa and the diaspora, the project is a feel-good, forward-thinking statement from an artist reshaping Afro-influenced R&B.
Baby Boy is more than an EP—it’s Jaylon’s sonic autobiography. Each track reveals a different facet of his identity, from the joyful chaos of Nigerian cities to the experimental freedom of the UK underground. With collaborators like Azanti, Minz, Anjeli, Phaemous, Remy Baggins, and Ramoni, the EP bursts with collaborative energy and diverse textures.
“Baby Boy is where I let myself explore joy,” Jaylon explains. “It’s nostalgic, but still fresh—happy chords, chill vibes, and beats that move you without overwhelming. It’s a soundscape of who I am.”
