Jaylin: Embracing Challenges, Honoring Loved Ones, and Staying True to Himself

Jaylin: Embracing Challenges, Honoring Loved Ones, and Staying True to Himself

Jaylin faced the unexpected challenge of realizing that not every body of work he created would be an instant success. He had to learn to cope with the pressure of meeting high expectations after a successful debut album in 2021 with the XO Forever Band on Bandlab. As an independent artist, he has had to take on the responsibilities of promotion, production, and distribution on his own.

Valuable Advice, the Role of Faith in Music, Learning from Mistakes, and Advice from Fellow Musicians

Jaylin's late grandmother offered him the best piece of advice, urging him to keep God in whatever he does. This advice has had a significant impact on Jaylin's music career and life in general. Jaylin has learned that not every action needs a reaction and that letting things go can have a positive impact. Fellow Bandlab artist TG advised him never to let anyone undermine his success, regardless of his sexuality or unique approach to different genres

Memorable Live Performances, Five-Year Goals, and the Most Meaningful Song

While Jaylin hasn't had many live performances, he fondly remembers performing his song "Spring Interlude" at his school for a music video. Jaylin hopes that in the next five years, he will be happy with his music and able to look back on the beautiful memories he captured through melodies and harmonies. His most meaningful song, "Dayride," is a tribute to his grandmother, who was an influential figure in his life. Through his grandmother's teachings, Jaylin continues to let the Holy Spirit guide him in the right direction, building on the strong foundation his grandmother helped him establish.
