At a time when R&B’s identity is being reshaped, Ebubé emerges as a compelling force, determined to carve out a space for slow, sensual, and emotionally charged storytelling. His debut EP, Slow Jam Szn, released via Lionbear Records, is more than just a collection of songs—it’s a statement of artistic intent.
For Ebubé, Slow Jam Szn represents a reclamation of intimacy and depth in R&B.
“I wanted to bring back slow, sensual but meaningful R&B,” he explains. “This project comes from a very personal and vulnerable place. I want to create a world in which listeners can be free to really feel the emotions they may hide deep down.”
The six-track release, featuring ‘Where I Wanna Be,’ ‘Lay With Me,’ and ‘Poison’, seamlessly bridges classic R&B traditions with modern perspectives, reinforcing the genre’s ability to evolve while preserving its essence.
What makes Ebubé’s journey remarkable isn’t just his musical ability—it’s his rich, multifaceted background. Raised on R&B, gospel, and classical music, he went on to receive formal musical training, even earning a spot in the Eton orchestra through a music scholarship.
His ability to self-produce (as heard on Foresight and What Can I Do) speaks to his technical mastery, while his TikTok covers, which rapidly gained traction in France and the UK, proved his ability to resonate across audiences.
Ebubé’s breakthrough arrives at a crucial time for Black R&B artists, who have long fought for visibility, respect, and industry investment. Despite R&B’s dominance in cultural influence, many young Black artists face barriers to mainstream success, often being overlooked for more commercially-driven sounds.
Yet, Ebubé is breaking that mold—his artistry sits alongside a movement of Black R&B creatives reclaiming space, proving the genre’s power, relevance, and depth. Supported by tastemakers like Rated R&B, COLORS, CLASH, and The Line of Best Fit, he is not just an emerging talent—he is shaping the next wave of R&B.
His journey with Victoria Monét and Coco Jones co-signed group No Guidnce laid a strong foundation, but Ebubé is ready to step out alone, bringing timeless R&B that values love over toxicity to the forefront.
With Slow Jam Szn, Ebubé isn’t just delivering an EP—he’s leading a revival, offering intimate storytelling, masterful instrumentation, and a vision for R&B’s future. And if this debut is any indication, his impact on the industry is only beginning.
