Jayd Ink makes royal return with ‘Queen St’

Toronto based, accomplished R&B songstress Jayd Ink makes a welcome return with her smooth, meditative and self-reflective new single ‘Queen St’.

Showcasing her undeniable calibre and artistic prowess which is perfectly encapsulated through her velvet vocal and liquescent tone, every note cascades with precision; tumbling onto a bed studded with soft, relaxed, chill-hop style beats. ‘Queen St’ emanates an air of serenity and sensuality, much like the name suggests, its regal nature emits a beauty and grace rarely found but highly coveted.

“To clear my head, I like to go for a ride, play some music or just drive in silence. This record is about sitting with yourself and going for that late drive to unwind from the day. Queen Street is a popular street in Toronto, it’s where the majority of people do most of their shopping and hang out. During lockdown, it was deserted, so it was a perfect drive and I’d never seen it so empty. Whilst I was going for these rides I found myself exploring my city with fresh eyes, connecting with it in new ways and just learning to appreciate the memories that I’d had here and this particular street struck a chord and really stood out to me, like never before.”

Enigmatic, intuitive, and calmly contemplative, ‘Queen St’ is soothing yet invigorating, a staple song to add to your Summertime and Cruisin’ Around playlists. Partnered with an equally nostalgic style video, ‘Queen St’ makes for a head turning comeback, nothing short of majesty.
