JayDon Shares The Charismatic Video For “Jealous Of The Moon”
A true triple threat catching the eye of R&B fans and industry tastemakers, 18-year-old JayDon has got next. Today, the L.A. native shares “Jealous Of The Moon,” the latest video from his new debut EP, Me My Songs & I. A smoldering ballad about wanting to spend every waking moment with the one you love, “Jealous Of The Moon” is a showcase for JayDon’s supreme vocal control, as he works his higher register over a chiming electric guitar. The video shows off the young star’s athletic dancing ability, as he feels every lyric and expresses them through his movement.
JayDon’s new video comes on the heels of his first-ever headlining show at The Echo in his hometown of Los Angeles. Playing to a sold-out crowd, the young artist demonstrated his world-class talent, flaunting flawless choreography and immaculate live vocals. JayDon had support from special guests 2BYG, Breez Kennedy, and Ruggo. The Los Angeles show was JayDon’s second standout performance this month, following his performance of “Lullaby” ft. Paradise on The Jennifer Hudson Show (co-signed by Ms. Tina Knowles).

Arriving after a string of buzzing singles, Me My Songs & I is a showcase for the 18-year-old triple threat’s emotive tenor and exquisite control. JayDon crafted the EP with behind-the-scenes assistance from industry heavy-hitters, including songwriters Felisha King (formerly of Cherish) and Whitney Phillips, producers like Harv, Blaq Tuxedo, Andre Harris, and Triangle Park, and executives USHER and Antonio “L.A.” Reid. The new EP peaked at #8 on Apple Music’s R&B chart over its debut weekend.
The new EP is home to the viral single “Lullaby,” a collaboration with rapper Paradise. Currently one of the most-added songs on Urban Radio, “Lullaby” has connected all over the globe, especially in South Korea, where it reached the top of Spotify’s Viral 50, and remained there for multiple weeks. It has made an impact in other Asian markets, including China and Taiwan. Other standout singles that find a home on the new EP include the the USHER-sampling “I’ll Be Good,” which earned praise from Billboard, BET, Rated R&B, and more, and inspired a choreography-heavy music video (1.9 million views), and the skittering, Jersey club-inspired “Boujee Baby.” Me My Songs & I is available on all platforms via Zoo/mega/gamma.
Though he has a skill for acting, which he demonstrates in many of his music videos, films like The Lion King, and TV shows like The Paynes, music has remained his passion. With Me My Songs & I out now, JayDon is determined to blow up and become one of his generation’s most vital artists.
