“Baby Jaymes is a hip-hop generation throwback to the days when you just weren‘t hip if you didn‘t have a stack of soul 45s under your arm at all times.” – XLR8R Magazine
The Song:
In anticipation of his forthcoming EP, Whatever Happened To Baby Jaymes, and following the release of his single “Heart & Soul,” Oakland bred singer/songwriter Baby Jaymes is excited to release his latest single, “Bump My Head.” On “Bump My Head,” a combination of lush keys, pulsating horns, and a smooth bassline provide the perfect backdrop for Baby Jaymes to tell a tale of falling victim to the temptations of a pretty lady, all the while ignoring the warnings of friends.
As he continues to trail blaze his self-anointed genre of Ghetto Retro, Baby Jaymes is refusing to be put in a box, pushing the envelope and redefining what a modern day urban singer is ‘supposed’ to sound like. Refreshingly soulful, with “Bump My Head,” Baby Jaymes gives an answer to those who wondered Whatever Happened To Baby Jaymes: he’s doing just fine.
Baby Jaymes’ new EP, Whatever Happened To Baby Jaymes, was released November 15th.
