West Coast mainstay and one of COMPLEX‘s 25 Rappers To Watch In 2025, EBK Jaaybo, has joined forces with Chicago heavyweight VonOff1700 for their new single “Exposing Me” — out now along with an accompanying music video. Bolstered by speaker-rattling 808s and spectral loops, the track stamps their first ever collaboration and has been heavily anticipated amongst fans for months after the pair were spotted filming the music video together in EBK Jaaybo‘s native Stockton earlier this year. “Exposing Me” (feat. VonOff1700) serves as the latest offering from the California rapper’s forthcoming album Don’t Trust Me, due out May 30th, following the recent news that he’ll be opening for YoungBoy Never Broke Again on his upcoming nationwide Masa Tour, as well as a breakthrough year in 2024 that saw him unveil The Reaper. Released while he was still behind bars, the album featured the viral hit track “Boogieman” (260M+ Streams), now his biggest song to date. EBK Jaaybo‘s recent viral freestyle for PlaqueBoyMax‘s In The Booth series, as well as recent singles “Homebody” (5M+ Streams), “Long Live My Brother” (5M+ Streams), “F*ck Everybody (Free Maxx)” (8M+ Streams), and the First Day Out anthem “The Biggest G” (19M+ Streams) are paving the way for the forthcoming release of Don’t Trust Me, his fifth project in as many years — out next Friday. Painting a vivid, heart-racing portrait of Bay Area street life, EBK Jaaybo is providing a revitalizing glimpse into the future of California Hip-Hop.
Born in Stockton, California, EBK Jaaybo first turned heads with “Dondadda”, released when he was just 14 years old. The rapper steadily garnered momentum in his city and beyond with projects like 2021,Letter 4 The Streets,Sinners Prayer and The Reaper, which were all hailed for his unique blend of hard-hitting street rap and infectious pop hooks. Despite his long battle with California’s legal system, he’s kept up his momentum with a steady string of releases, and in 2024 broke through into the mainstream while still incarcerated with the aforementioned “Boogieman”. After the loss of his friend and mentor, Young Slo-Be, as well as his brother EBK Osama, EBK Jaaybo is focused on investing in himself, learning from his mistakes, accumulating generational wealth for his sons — and becoming the new face of the West Coast in the process.
