New song "You" w/Young Jonn out now!
Crayon's debut EP, “Cray Cray” was one of 2019’s most celebrated releases, producing the global fine girls’ anthems, “So Fine” and “Gock Am”. Cray rose through the ranks in inner-city Lagos to getting discovered by in-house Mavin producers. As the story goes, he walked out of an examination hall with no plan. Equal parts energy and finesse, the singer’s early exploits have seen him labelled as an icon in waiting.
A standout performance on Don Jazzy’s first posse cut in years, “All Is In Order” was his first introduction. Released months later, his debut EP also produced fan faves, “Unusual” and “Bamiloke”. It earned him a place on multiple “Ones To Watch” lists and a “Rookie of The Year” nomination at the 2019 Headies.
A student of the game, Crayon’s methodical approach has earned him cosigns from 2baba and Wizkid. Deep in the pandemic’s lows, he drew from diverse influences - Latin on “On Code” to Jamaica, where he collaborated with Tessellated on “No Ansa”.
As he’s dropped music, Cray has stayed in the factory, teasing collabs with Rema and Bella Shmurda, two global and afrobeat phenoms. There’s talk of a new project on the way as he continues to deliver on his early promise.
