Rising R&B sensation JayDon has teamed with his label boss, Usher, for his “Lullaby (mega Remix),” alongside emerging act Paradise.
Not only does the remix feature a fresh verse from Usher, but JayDon and Paradise also croon new lyrics, which give the bedroom jam an even moodier touch. Usher kicks things off with a confessional.
“Now when I say Lullaby / It’s really for, a metaphor, not literal, / Cuz I don’t doze, cat nap or otherwise sleep on ya,” he sings on the HARV production.
JayDon, who turned 18 this year, appears in the second verse, singing, “Every breath you take / That’s the pace of my favorite lullaby.”
Paradise arrives in verse three, crooning, “I’ll make it sing / Put you down like medicine / Tuck you in / Tell me when / You wanna go again / We can get right back at it / Addicts.”
JayDon’s “Lullaby (mega remix)” follows his “Lullaby Remix” with K-pop artists Jay Park and LOUIS of LNGSHOT, which dropped Nov. 21.
Before that, he dropped his debut EP, Me My Songs & I, in October via Zoo/mega/gamma.
The 10-track offering includes the original version of “Lullaby,” also produced by HARV and written by Felisha King-Harvey (formerly of Cherish). It also features the single “I’ll Be Good,” which samples Usher’s “How Do I Say.”
In March, mega announced JayDon joined its roster. Legendary music exec L.A. Reid, who co-founded mega with Usher, said, “JayDon is a generational rarity and an entertainment phenomenon with musical brilliance evident from his earliest days. We are thrilled to support his promising career as he begins this new chapter with us at mega.”
Usher’s appearance on “Lullaby” follows his feature on Chris Brown‘s “It Depends (The Remix),” which dropped Oct. 17.
Speaking of Brown, the R&B star showed support to JayDon following his performance on the Jennifer Hudson Show. “BRUH NEXT UP! KEEP OUR ART FORM FROM BEING OBSOLETE! Nothing but praise and respect on this Side,” he commented on Instagram.
