Interview with BabyJake
We had the pleasure of interviewing BabyJake over Zoom video!\xa0
Bound to be a staple on your summer playlists, alternative singer, songwriter, and producer BabyJakedrops his latest single \u201cDaddy\u2019s Coming Home\u201d.
On \u201cDaddy\u2019s Coming Home,\u201d BabyJake goes full-on outlaw rockstar. His wild delivery rings out with grit and gusto on the guitar-laden banger. In the accompanying music video, BabyJakerescues a damsel-in-distress (from an airstream) and concocts a revenge plot against her father. The outright rowdy visual sets the tone for the forthcoming debut album from the Gold-Certifiedrising star.
Of the song, BabyJake says, \u201cI wrote & produced [\u2018Daddy\u2019s Coming Home\u2019] with Danny Shyman, who I did most of this album with. I\u2019ve been listening to a lot of classic rock and just really wanted to make a rock & roll record. I started on the guitar and the lyric \u2018Daddy\u2019s coming home...\u2019 and we just built from there. It\u2019s by far my favorite record I\u2019ve released so far, and I think a good example of where I\u2019m headed as an artist.\u201d
Earlier this spring, BabyJake released his singles\u201cDo I Fit In Your Shoes?\u201d and \u201cFunny Thing About Love\u201d with BipolarSunshine, which were praised by Billboard, V Magazine, TMRW Magazine, American Songwriter, and more. The singles followed his 2020 debut EP Don\u2019t give me problems, give me wine hailed by critics and fans alike. The seven-song genre-blurring EPfeatureshis single \u201cHead In The Clouds\u201d and was acclaimed by Notion, The Line Of Best Fit, Ones To Watch, This Song Is Sick, Lyrical Lemonade, and more. Wonderland stated, \u201cFew artists are able to bounce so seamlessly from genre to genre than BabyJake,\u201d while Flauntproclaimed, \u201cBabyJake is on his way to superstardom.\u201dEarlier this year, BabyJake teamed up with Louis The Child on \u201cSomewhere Else.\u201d

ABOUT BABYJAKE
Jake Herring, aka BabyJake, first picked up the guitar when he was eight years old. Growing up in Fort Myers FL, he constantly juggled his deep love of classic rock and guitars with an enthusiasm for sports and partying with his friends. For solace, Herring often turned to his dad\u2019s folk records, favoring the low-key contemplative sounds that resonated with the sense of alienation that he was feeling. Though he maybe wasn\u2019t conscious of it at the time, Herring was priming himself to be a sort of musical chameleon. Well versed in the building blocks of rock music, the intimacy of folk, and with an innate understanding of the rap and pop music he grew up around, he was constructing a well of disparate influences to draw from when he eventually made a serious go at a music career. After his freshman year of college, Herring dropped out and started writing songs as often as he could. Debuting as BabyJake in 2019, his Gold-Certified single \u201cCigarettes on Patios\u201d topped global viral charts and has accumulated over 100 million streams to date. Despite the global pandemic changing original plans for 2020, BabyJake kept the momentum going with a seven-song debut EP, Don\u2019t give me problems, give me wine, which Lyrical Lemonade acclaimed, \u201can exceptional project.\u201d On the heels of its success, BabyJake sets the stage for his debut album with his latest singles \u201cDo I Fit In Your Shoes?\u201d and \u201cFunny Thing About Love".
