Jayden Yen Dumont, known professionally as jaydes (previously known as evvls), is an American rapper, singer, producer, and songwriter from Tamarac, Florida.[2] He is best known for his SoundCloud releases, and has gained popularity in the underground hip-hop scene from social media platforms such as TikTok.[3] He has collaborated with other underground hip-hop artists,[4] including KA$HDAMI and Riovaz, Rich Amiri, Yung Fazo, and fellow rapper Yuke.[5]
Career
[edit]2020-2021: Beginnings, evvls
[edit]In 2020, Jaydes started releasing music to SoundCloud under the name "evvls".[6] He started off with his unique Florida-inspired take on the PluggNB genre. This quickly rose him to fame in the underground hip-hop scene.[7]
2021-2022: Breakthrough, romanticism
[edit]By late 2021, Jaydes began to show extreme versatility in his music by being able to capture different musical atmospheres, from up-tempo music like his hit single “slugs” and “scam likely" to more ambient and wavy songs like “vivienne” and “hearts”. With even more of an R&B / indie rock sound with angel-like vocals that can be seen in his 2022 EP romanticism.[8]
2023-present: Production change, Count Up Dracula & Panic
[edit]In 2023, Jaydes started making music under the moniker "mandy".[9] The songs were more focused on the Indie Rock and Punk sound he had been experimenting with, with a lot of the songs using instrumentals by Alex G and American Football.[10] Jaydes started releasing music under his main profile again in 2024, bringing his experimental sound with him. His production drastically changed to more punk-focused, with his projects Count Up Dracula and Panic, in which he played guitar, and performed vocals.[11] He stated that his favorite artist and idol is GG Allin, an infamous punk-rocker.[12] These projects were met with negative criticism, due to the muddy and raw overall production.[13]
As a result of his arrest, he has been removed from his label, 10K Projects.[14]
Personal life
[edit]Dumont was born on February 24, 2006 and raised in Pompano Beach, Florida.[15] He grew up with a passion for music, and started producing and writing music at a very young age.[16]
Arrest
[edit]On November 3, 2024, a warrant for Dumont's arrest was issued by the Broward County Sheriff's Office after a story was publicized by the now-terminated Instagram account @exposingjaydes, allegedly stating that Dumont stabbed his ex-girlfriend in the neck and arms with scissors and a box cutter when she denied sexual intercourse.[17] A week later, on November 10, 2024, he was arrested at a local Denny's in Broward County and charged with attempted murder. He is currently being held with no bond and his trial is pending.[18]
