Jaylon Debuts Vibrant Afro R&B EP ‘Baby Boy’ – A Global Soundtrack of Joy and Identity
Nigerian-born, Bristol-based artist Jaylon shares his most personal work to date with Baby Boy, a radiant Afro R&B EP that celebrates cross-cultural roots, collaboration, and genre-defying freedom.
If you’re not already familiar with Jaylon, now’s the time to lean in. A longtime architect behind the scenes of Afro-fusion, the Nigerian-born, Bristol-based producer and songwriter has just stepped into the spotlight with Baby Boy—his debut EP and most compelling artistic statement yet. Fusing vibrant Afro R&B rhythms with soul, dancehall, and minimalist UK textures, Jaylon brings a fresh and emotionally rich voice to the global music landscape.
At its heart, Baby Boy is a sonic autobiography. Jaylon draws from his life between Lagos and Bristol, channeling everything from the bustling energy of Nigerian cities to the underground serenity of the UK’s creative scene. Across seven tracks, he invites a handpicked collective of rising vocalists and fellow producers from the African diaspora, crafting a cohesive but colorful soundscape that feels both deeply personal and universally inviting.
“I wanted to make something joyful that still feels real,” Jaylon shares. “Baby Boy is me choosing happiness—without pretending that everything is perfect. It’s nostalgic, it’s modern, and it’s true to who I am.” That authenticity radiates through the EP’s production, which feels intentional yet effortless. Warm chords, crisp drums, and smooth vocal textures blend into a body of work that’s both chill and deeply immersive.
As the founder of the Popboys Collective and a collaborator with some of the biggest names in the scene—including Mr Eazi, Odumodublvck, DJ Tunez, and Blaqbonez—Jaylon’s fingerprints are already on the future of Afro-fusion. But with Baby Boy, he shifts from supporting role to main character, carving out his own lane with clarity and style.
Whether you’re new to Afro R&B or already riding the wave, Baby Boy is a must-listen debut from a visionary artist ready to lead the next generation of global sound. Jaylon isn’t just making music—he’s telling stories that move across borders and rhythms that live on dancefloors and in hearts alike.
There’s something hypnotic about the way Kilder captures motion in his music. With “Dusk Till Dawn,” the Amsterdam-based producer leans into his genre-fluid sensibilities to deliver a track that’s as emotional as it is danceable. It’s the kind of single that transports you instantly — from fluorescent office lighting to the glow of a neon-lit street, from the mundane to the magical.
Sonically, “Dusk Till Dawn” is a lush blend of house, techno, and UK garage – but Kilder doesn’t just mix genres, he moulds them into something uniquely his. Every kick feels purposeful, every synth line like it has its own emotional arc. There’s a warmth to the track that wraps around you, even as the beat pushes forward with that late-night urgency.
The music video adds a deeply human layer to the experience. Following the journey of a man shedding his daytime persona, it’s a powerful metaphor for reclaiming selfhood in a world that often asks us to suppress it. The visuals move seamlessly from drab routines to liberating nightlife, echoing the sonic transformation that happens across the track’s runtime.
Kilder is no stranger to acclaim, and “Dusk Till Dawn” feels like another chapter in what’s becoming a very exciting story. His previous collaborators and co-signs – from Issey Cross to BBC Radio 1 – suggest an artist with both underground credibility and mainstream reach. The Spotify playlist placements and syncs with Apple only reinforce that he’s being heard in all the right places.
What’s most exciting is the promise of what’s to come. With an EP due in July and a growing catalogue of boundary-pushing tracks, Kilder is shaping a space where emotion, rhythm, and storytelling collide. “Dusk Till Dawn” isn’t just a single – it’s a statement of intent, and one that positions Kilder as one of the most compelling names in electronic music right now.
