‘Catching Red Lights’ is undoubtedly Jayd’s most vulnerable compilation to date. Consisting of the meditative and introspective lead single ‘Queen St’, she partners this with the new, sultry, affirmation-filled ‘Rollin’ and the contemplative, 90’s vibing ‘Stuck on Earth’.
Short, sweet but utterly enticing, Jayd has us caught up and captivated in the veils of her velvet-like vocal and laid-back beats. Entranced and increasingly intrigued we find ourselves firmly wrapped around her little finger as we eagerly await her next move.

This first tantalizing taste of her new artistic era perfectly positions Jayd as she re-emerges onto the scene, bursting through the soil after careful incubation, claiming her rightful space as she truly blossoms.

A somewhat unusual offering being just shy of the traditional 4-5 track EP often seen throughout the industry, Jayd demonstrates her unpredictable nature and well-earned confidence in her craft, proving yet again what an exciting player she is in the regal realms of R&B. ‘Catching Red Lights’ will undoubtedly leave fans feeling seen, heard and incredibly connected to Jayd as she authentically shares all whilst leaving them wanting that little bit more.

Despite her constantly keeping us on our toes, some things are certain when it comes to Jayd Ink and that is her unwavering ability to deliver music enveloped in class, oozing with flair and dripping in complete and utter finesse, which ‘Catching Red Lights’ is overflowing with.

Etching energy that is reminiscent of the unmistakable sounds from the classic 90’s R&B era, Jayd interweaves her unique threads into the rich tapestry of her music.

With an undeniable caliber perfectly encapsulated through her soulful vocals and liquescent tone, every note cascades with precision; tumbling onto a bed studded with soft, relaxed, chill-hop style beats. Jayd emanates an air of serenity and sensuality, in everything she creates, and ‘Catching Red Lights’ continues to emit beauty and grace rarely found but highly coveted.

“Catching Red Lights is about slowing down and learning to appreciate the moment. During the lockdown, I took the time to sit with myself, and dive deeper into my thoughts, my fears, and my overall well-being. It was a lot of reflection.
