On June 6, 2025, Kingmakers Music celebrated the remarkable achievements of our Kings in a year-long Artist Development Program, culminating in two standout releases. Our Kings—Sire, Dice, and Raymond—debuted their collective project, Kingmakers Beat Tape Volume One, while King Jayydon unveiled his very first solo EP, New Beginnings.
The energy in KOO Labs was electric as family, friends, mentors, and supporters packed the studio, filling every chair, floor space, and corner of the room. Guided by Jahi’s philosophy of letting music speak for itself, the event kicked off—and the beats took over. Sire, Dice, and Raymond opened with tracks from their beat tape, each delivering a distinct sound that resonated deeply with the audience—proof that each track truly spoke for itself.
Jayydon then took the spotlight, performing six dynamic tracks from New Beginnings. He rapped, sang, and even danced, exuding natural stage presence and passion. The crowd responded with enthusiastic applause, clearly moved by his confident performance.
Over the past year, our Kings immersed themselves in audio production, songwriting, performance, and career readiness—all inside the world-class facility of KOO Labs. With Jahi’s mentoring, they not only learned how to create music, but how to shape their creativity into a professional craft.
Seeing these young artists grow from concept to performance was truly inspiring. When you equip youth with tools, support, and the space to explore, their potential knows no bounds.
Both projects are now live and available exclusively on Bandcamp! 🎧 Dive into Kingmakers Beat Tape Volume One and New Beginnings. Stream, download, and share to uplift this emerging generation of talent. Trust me—you won’t regret it!
