WHAT IT IS: This Toronto-born singer/songwriter and producer walks well beyond the line of triple threat. Having been labeled as an “Artist To Watch” by high-profile news sources and placed at “The Top of our Playlist” by Fader, the prowess of his playful genre-blurring productions seems only to be matched by his infectious lyrics and sultry vocals. Described by many premier media outlets as “the next in the list of big names to come from Canada,” JAHKOY has an expertly crafted collision between R&B and electronic-house. Pharrell, Drake, Elton John and Zane Lowe have been actively supporting JAHKOY on Beats 1 Radio and Apple Music. After an impressive festival run this summer, conquering stages at Lollapalooza, Wireless UK, Hot 100 Festival and many more, he released his new single, “California Heaven,” which features ScHoolboy Q, to rave reviews. The track came out the gate with features from USA Today to Fader, and is steadily climbing up the Spotify viral charts. And he continues to build anticipation for his debut EP, Foreign Water, out this fall.
