Jaykyss, Where are You?

Just like the new series “Avatar: The Last Airbender” on Netflix, when the world needed Jaykyss most he vanished…

It’s coming upon the 1-year mark since Jaykyss released a song and his fans are starving. The Queens, NY artist left us in complete disarray last April after dropping an alternative rage/rap single titled “Moon”. His disappearance was an utter shock to his fans since previously to this track he’s been dropping songs consecutively throughout the year of 2023.   

So the question is…

Where’s Jaykyss?

After looking at his Instagram, it appears deceased with 0 posts, 0 following, and “loading…” in the bio. But what does this mean? What exactly is loading? No one seems to know. When further investigating, I was able to come up with the name “Joshua Michaels” after finding the songwriting credits for his song “Daydream” posted on Genius.

After searching the name “Joshua Michaels” on Google dozens of names pop up. But after cross-referencing the name with “Jaykyss” nothing seems to show up. Another dead end.

When scouring the deepest parts of the internet of all things “Jaykyss” I discovered a seemingly deserted X (formerly Twitter) account by the name of @Jaaykyss. This account seems to mirror his Instagram with “Loading…” in the bio and 0 following however there seems to be one new post.

To the untrained eye, this seems like a rearranged quote from the breakfast club. However, after looking deeper there seems to be something more…

The digit “1” is shown rather than the word “one” and most of the words seem to be lowercase. If you read out the capitalization in the quote it reads “M-A-Y”. Is this a date? May 1st? Is Jaykyss trying to tell us the release of his next single? Finally, the quote ends with “does this answer your question?”. Perhaps Jaykyss is trying to talk with his fans directly and answer our questions about his next release. This quote was also recently posted on his Instagram.

With 52 days left until May 1st. Time will tell if this quote is just a speculation or an announcement. We hope his next project will be an album given the time it’s been his last release. Until then we'll have to keep streaming “Moon” as well as the other songs in his discography to show him that even if this is the last time he drops we won’t run out of love for his music.
