CAREER

Under a year after moving to Lagos, Jaywon secured collaborations with Ray G, Sound Sultan, W4, Slizzy E and 2baba. He was given the opportunity to sing at the Kennis Music Easter Fiesta in 2009, and he made such an impression that the event's organizers were immediately interested in him. Jaywon signed a record deal with Kennis Music Record Label later that year. In December 2012, he released the single 'Odun Yi (This Year)' to critical and commercial acclaim. PZ Cusson later inked an endorsement arrangement with him, allowing the firm to exploit his popular song, 'This Year', for promotional purposes. Following his departure from Kennis Music, he founded the Next World Music record label in 2013. He released his anticipated and third album titled 'Oba Orin' after four singles featuring Vector, Reminisce and Reekado Banks. On June 25, 2020, Jaywon released his ten-track album titled Aje (The Mixtape). He has appeared in several films including, Armies of Thieves (2021), The Washerman (2018), Nkem (2020).
