Jaykae and Jorja Smith collaborate on “1000 Nights”
With the release of his new single “1000 Nights,” Jaykae connects with Jorja Smith for a garage-inspired song. Produced by Ezrah, the track is about the dangers of the illegal lifestyle.
Featuring Jaykae and Jorja, the accompanying video has been directed by Luke Biggins. The clip depicts the unfortunate tale as it unfolds -beginning with a young man dealing drugs and his wife trying to keep up with expenses. The police apprehend a father who was playing with his son when they find out that he is involved in an illegal transaction. In the end of the video, a man is robbed of his own product, after which it is revealed he is the father of the person seen at the beginning of the video.
When was the last time Jaykae released a new album? What has he been up to? is an eight-track offering which is accompanied by features from Murkage Dave, TiGA, YASeeN RosaY, and S-X. The rapper has since released a number of well-received free cuts, including “Chat” with Local, “On Top,” “Heartache,” “On The Way Home” with Aitch and Bowser Boss, and most recently the Swift Beater-produced “Chop.” In addition to working with others such as The Streets, Tom Zanetti, Nathan Dawe, Kida Kudz, and slowthai, Birmingham’s star was featured on tracks by The Streets, Ed Sheeran, and Tom Zanetti.
