Seattle-based R&B captivator Jaymin has just shared his latest enthralling soul-drenched single. Called “Rollin”, the single is a taste off of his highly anticipated new EP STATIC. By pairing poetic lyrics with rap-inflected cadences, Jaymin is known for fusing contemporary production with ’80s and ’90s influences, channeling the smoothness of vintage R&B and the energy of New Jack swing. The result is a dynamic soundscape where warped melodies, layered vocals, blurred samples, and booming bass collide.
With “Rollin”, Jaymin examines romantic relationships and the question of whether a relationship has the staying power both people hope for. He sings, “I’ve been going through the motions / Can you tell me where we are going? / Honestly it shouldn’t be this hard to find / Can you in it for the long run,” asking for clarity. “Rollin” is vulnerable, honest, and genuine. Jaymin opens his heart and soul and the listener is captivated.
Musically, “Rollin” features Jaymin’s hypnotic R&B-soaked vocals over swirling synths, deep bass and emotive organ tones. The slow-burning and seductive single is produced by Sango and Chase N. Cashe, and is the ultimate soundtrack for late-night reflection. Every element of the production is carefully considered, creating a hazy, intimate atmosphere that allows Jaymin’s vocals and emotional delivery to remain at the forefront.
As a preview of STATIC, “Rollin” leaves plenty to be excited about. Take a listen now and add this gem to your favorite playlist!
