Bio: Jairus ( Jaym) McClinton

Born and raised in Memphis, Tennessee in the Westwood community, Jairus McClinton has been singing and performing since the 4th grade! He first realized his ability to sing in the church and later when asked to audition for his school’s Christmas play, he realized that he had a raw talent for performance as well!

The more he grew into his gift, the more he began to expand as a singer and musician! Jairus started writing songs at an early age! In elementary, he would copy down the lyrics to popular songs just to see how the words were patterned, and by the time he was in the sixth grade, he started writing his own songs.

He joined his high school band in 2009 and began fluently reading music. This began his passion for not only singing but music as a whole. He also recorded his first hook with a rap group named ‘Street Unit All Stars’ and began working closely with ‘DJ Robert’ and ‘Yungboi Starr.” His younger cousin began doing music as well and started producing music using FL software under the name ‘MidasOnTheBeat’ - he is now Jairus’s (Jaym) main producer.

While attending Alcorn State University, he led many solo performances for their Concert Choir, Men’s Chorale, and other various ensembles. His friends and him also began to build their own music talent group geared towards recording different artist on campus as well as himself. His first solo single under the group ‘Vybe Music Productions’ was “Patience (2016)” produced by ‘JaySpinnah.’ At the time his artist name was “JayMack” since that is what everyone called him.

Since graduating, he is still pursuing his music and has recorded many remakes of popular music that can be found on his YouTube Channel - Jaym Music and recorded several original songs with his Producer ‘MidasOnTheBeat’ such as “Homage (2018),” “In The Mood (2018),” and “Private Dancer (2019)”
