Why Is Everyone Talking About Tayo?

Seattle native, Tayo is an upcoming artist that's fresh on the music scene. He became active about a year ago when he put out his first releases, previously under the name Yvng Tayo. Even though his debut songs are indeed quite recent, he is no stranger to music-making. Tayo has been perfecting his craft behind the scene for quite a while, before eventually making a splash into the music world! As a former basketball player, Tayo was quite busy, but some injuries prevented him from pursuing sports as much as he aimed, so he had some more time to focus on music. His sound is remarkably diverse, bridging the divide between genres as diverse as pop, R&B, and even hints of hip-hop to spice things up.

Fans of artists like Lil Mosey, Frank Ocean, XXXTENTACION, Miguel, or Drake are certainly going to connect with Tayo's creative vision. His production aesthetics are on-point, and more importantly, his vocal flow is highly recognizable, making for a unique feel and adding something special to his music. Be sure to connect with Tayo on all social media and digital music platforms.
