Although many young musical artists have found success via TikTok, the wildly popular short-form video app, JVKE seems to be a cut above the rest. JVKE burst onto the scene in 2020 with his single "Upside Down." The 19 year old’s work, which includes samples of songs that are currently popular on TikTok, quickly gained traction on the app. It became the third most popular ‘sound,’ or sound bite that is available for creators to use in their own videos, and was also featured in TikTok’s recent global ad. As of August 2021, ‘Upside Down’ has been featured in videos by Charlie Puth, Addison Rae, and several other prominent users.
While JVKE’s musical work certainly has broad appeal, he combines elements of soft pop, hip-hop, and RnB into his own distinct style that is punctuated by a creative sense of beat-making. JVKE’s music is comfortable on a pop radio station while being notably fresh and original. His latest music video "Secrets" puts his creativity on display, utilizing a series of short clips that pay homage to TikTok’s short-form style. In an interview with Cranston Herald, the local newspaper of JVKE’s hometown of Cranston, Rhode Island, the young artist revealed that he has over 350 unreleased songs in his catalog. JVKE is set to perform at his first ever live show in November! Just know with this rapid climb to fame, and his uncanny musical skill level JVKE is definitely the artist to keep your eye out for!
