With his latest offering, the rising artist continues to blur genre lines, as he blends pop with alternative, rock and psychedelic influences. Of the inspiration behind "MadHappySad," BabyJake says, "It's about the feelings that come up when you're with someone who's probably not the right person for you, and they just make you feel all these emotions at the same time. MadHappySad." The song is taken from his highly anticipated debut EP out soon.
 
"MadHappySad" follows BabyJake's recently released singles, "Confidant" and "Blue Cellophane." The singer and songwriter also recently teamed up with Dillon Francis on his tracks, "You Do You" and "Touch," which Billboard Dance praised, saying, "Florida vocalist BabyJake delivers the track's smooth-as-silk vocals over Francis' slinky production."
 
BabyJake capped off 2019 with over 25 million streams across his first three singles and live performances of "Blue Cellophane" and "239" for Vevo DSCVR's 'Artist to Watch' 2020 campaign, which he was 1 of 20 emerging artists selected. "MadHappySad" sets the stage as BabyJake gears up for a massive year.

 
ABOUT BABYJAKE

Born in Key West though raised in Ft. Myers, BabyJake is the latest music artist to acquire buzz out of South West, Florida. While his entry into music started at a young age, his plan out of high school was to play college sports. After a year, he dropped out and returned home to record and release music under his government name, Jake Herring. After self-releasing an EP titled Little Mess and a single "Miami" that garnered attention online, he connected with producers Luyo Mario and DVLP, who saw Jake's true potential for stardom. He inked a deal with School Boy Records and Republic Records through DVLP's Transcendent Entertainment imprint after catching the attention of Scooter Braun with a new name [BabyJake] and a whole new angle to his craft. Harnessing his knack for strong songwriting through his folk past mixed with his love of hip-hop, BabyJake is geared to mix genres and feelings in a way that's never been done before. "My goal is to reach out to people and connect to their hearts the way my lyrics connect to mine," he says. "You don't have to have the same experiences to have the same feelings."
