About Big Yayo
Hometown
Goodman, MS, United States
Genre
Blues
Mississippi-based singer and producer Big Yayo updates the Southern soul sound for contemporary dancefloors, adding a hip-hop edge to a mixture of funk, blues, and R&B. His smooth, sensual songs are generally themed around dancing and lovemaking, and are often loaded with Zapp-style talkbox vocals. Based in Jackson, Chris Mabry began his career producing regional hits by Southern soul singers like Stevie J., LaMorris Williams, and J-Wonn. Big Yayo's singles "Cowgirl" and "Come and Get It" (both featuring J-Wonn) appeared in 2015, and the pair featured on Charles Wilson's singles "Back 2 You" and "Mississippi Boy, Pt. 2." Following additional singles like "She Wants a Man" and "Bedroom Rodeo," Big Yayo's debut album Southern Classic was released in 2017. ~ Paul Simpson
