Accompanied by a music video which in turn has been inspired by the colour palette of the clip for Beenie Man&#8217;s &#8216;Gal Dem Sugar&#8217;, he also pays homage with the feel of the video altogether. You can watch the video for &#8216;Night Til Morning&#8217; below:<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\"><div  style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto;\"  id=\"_ytid_93351\"  width=\"640\" height=\"360\"  data-origwidth=\"640\" data-origheight=\"360\"  data-relstop=\"1\" data-facadesrc=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/T-FRaxEJ5Us?enablejsapi=1&#038;origin=https:\/\/essentiallypop.com&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=0&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;rel=0&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;theme=dark&#038;color=red&#038;controls=1&#038;disablekb=0&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__ epyt-facade no-lazyload\" data-epautoplay=\"1\" ><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-spai-excluded=\"true\" class=\"epyt-facade-poster skip-lazy\" loading=\"lazy\"  alt=\"YouTube player\"  src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/T-FRaxEJ5Us\/maxresdefault.jpg?w=640&#038;ssl=1\"  \/><button class=\"epyt-facade-play\" aria-label=\"Play\"><svg data-no-lazy=\"1\" height=\"100%\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 68 48\" width=\"100%\"><path class=\"ytp-large-play-button-bg\" d=\"M66.52,7.74c-0.78-2.93-2.49-5.41-5.42-6.19C55.79,.13,34,0,34,0S12.21,.13,6.9,1.55 C3.97,2.33,2.27,4.81,1.48,7.74C0.06,13.05,0,24,0,24s0.06,10.95,1.48,16.26c0.78,2.93,2.49,5.41,5.42,6.19 C12.21,47.87,34,48,34,48s21.79-0.13,27.1-1.55c2.93-0.78,4.64-3.26,5.42-6.19C67.94,34.95,68,24,68,24S67.94,13.05,66.52,7.74z\" fill=\"#f00\"><\/path><path d=\"M 45,24 27,14 27,34\" fill=\"#fff\"><\/path><\/svg><\/button><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Jayden Willis began making music from an early age, starting with GarageBand at the age of 7. Even then he knew what he wanted, he realised it wasn&#8217;t up to the standards he set for himself. By the time he was 15 he had started recording music properly, and went from &#8220;Jayden&#8221; to the stage name of &#8220;Jay&#8217;D&#8221;, adopted from the pet name his grandmother gave him. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8216;Night Til Morning&#8217; clearly pays homage to the Jamaican stylings, and has that sweet tropical sound common to the music that comes out of that country. Soft lead vocals, with ethereal backing vocals, are laid on a deceptively simple instrumental mix, which primarily focuses on a guitar rhythm, but also brings in gentle percussive elements, rounding out the mix. At just over 3 minutes long, &#8216;Night Til Morning&#8217; has the power to draw listeners in and leave them wanting for more. Until Jay&#8217;D Willis releases his next single, all we can do is just hit &#8220;replay&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8216;Night Til Morning&#8217; is out now and available to stream and download <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/ditto.fm\/night-til-morning\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/ditto.fm\/night-til-morning\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.
