Young Jonn returns with Jiggy Forever

Renowned Afrobeats singer and producer, Young Jonn, is back with a riveting album dubbed, Jiggy Forever. The 16-track record culminates his streak of hit singles including, songs like Aquafina, Go Hard, among others, that kept him busy on popular global music charts and concerts throughout last year.

In Jiggy Forever, Young Jonn, born John Saviours Udomboso, captures his experiences as a young superstar. He moves from the depths of love and longing in the Caribbean Islands with Jamaican rapper, Sean Paul’s Hold On to the thrills and grandeur of financial success in the streets of Lagos, Nigeria with Zlatan’s 50 Million and Full My Tank alongside Don Jazzy. For Maya Maya he enlists French-based Congolese sensation, Ya Levis, for a stylistic rendition detailing a young, whirlwind romance.

“This album is really special to me. I feel like most people don’t really know who I am. They just have an idea,” he tells Weekend Beats. “But this project uncovers the real me. Each track is like a snapshot of life’s roller coaster, touching on love, hustle, and finding my way in a world that sometimes feels upside down.”

Young Jonn’s transition from producer to music artist began in 2021, shortly after signing an Artist Recording Agreement with Nigeria’s foremost record label, Chocolate City Music. He then went on to release his first project Love Is Not Enough Vol. 1 which reached critical acclaim, scoring a remix to his first single, Dada, with popular Afrobeats artist, Davido. This was followed by Love Is Not Enough Vol. 2. Touted to be his best body of work yet, Jiggy Forever is a valuable expansion to the library of Afro-pop albums redefining Afrobeats’ present trajectory.
