Falling in love with music and possessing the talent to pursue a career are just the beginning of a musician’s journey. Yet, what often goes unnoticed is the essential role of motivation and support in driving an artist forward. Jay Scott, widely known as Jayneto, embodies this narrative as he rises from adversity and navigates the music industry on his own terms.

Jayneto’s initial encounter with music came through his uncle Tony, a catalyst that ignited his passion for the art. Witnessing his uncle effortlessly play music on the keyboard solidified Jayneto’s love for the craft, fueling his determination to pursue a career in music. Recounting the experience, he describes it as “walking on clouds,” as his uncle imparted invaluable knowledge on reading music notes, composing, and playing instruments. These fundamental teachings became the bedrock of his musical journey, propelling him forward since the very beginning.

In 2010, Jayneto penned his first song, but his world soon crumbled as tragedy struck with the untimely passing of his uncle and great-grandmother. At the tender age of 12, these losses left him reeling in deep depression, causing strained relationships with friends and family. Amidst this emotional turmoil, his music suffered, until two steadfast friends, Princelightskin and W.B.K, intervened, helping Jayneto regain his footing and reignite his passion.

Recently, Jayneto released his debut EP, “Alcatraz,” which has garnered an astounding 600,000 streams in under a month. Going beyond creating music for himself, Jayneto has also penned songs for other artists and lent his production skills to their projects. Furthermore, he has set his sights on venturing into acting and modeling, showcasing his multifaceted talents. Notably, Jayneto’s martial arts prowess adds an extra layer to his diverse skill set.

Jayneto’s aspiration is to connect with audiences through various musical genres. His exceptional ability to read, write, and interpret music distinguishes him as a consummate professional, an area where many contemporary artists fall short. “I have undergone several voice training sessions to maintain my vocal strength, which stems from the unwavering passion I have for the art,” he affirms, emphasizing his dedication to honing his craft.

With a mission to forge connections with discerning music enthusiasts and discover emerging artists with an array of musical abilities, Jayneto is carving his own path as an independent artist. Guided by his uncle’s advice to always stay true to himself, he fearlessly challenges boundaries and conventions.

Looking ahead, Jayneto envisions touring his country and the world over the next five years, alongside his comrades Princelightskin and W.B.K. In addition, he harbors plans to establish a martial arts school, aiming to inspire individuals worldwide by demonstrating that anything is possible, irrespective of background or the challenges overcome on one’s journey.
