Music career


Jaykae's start with music began when he started listening to other grime artists from London.
In 2017 he released a single, "Every Country," featuring Murkage Dave of the Murkage cartel. The song, produced by Skepta, was Radio 1's Tune of the Week. He has featured on Charlie Sloth's BBC show, Fire In The Booth, where he performed a two piece set which reflected on life and the recent passing of fellow grime artist and friend, Depzman. He has performed on the BBC radio show segment, The BBC Live Lounge, where he performed two of his own songs, "Moscow" and "Toothache", and also a cover of Cameo's "Candy". Jaykae has been described as the "essential voice of the city" of Birmingham.
He featured on Skepta's All-Star Remix of the single '"That's not me". He collaborated with Mike Skinner (of The Streets) producing the tracks "CCTV" and "Boys Will Be Boys".
