Renegade musician, producer and storyteller Jairic has released his new EP n=40, alongside its defiant focus track and video “Yolo 2 Yoga” in early December 2025.
The project arrives amid growing international momentum, with earlier singles already earning support from influential tastemaker outlets including Wonderland Magazine, NOTION, CLASH Magazine and EARMILK, as well as radio backing from NPR Music.
Jairic has complemented the release with a series of high-profile live performances, including exclusive sets at Château Les Alouettes in Cannes and Villa Balbiano on Lake Como, as well as a featured appearance at the Paris premiere of the short film Azur.
His work has reached audiences across France, Italy, Prague and the United States, accumulating close to two million streams across platforms. Every release is fully self-written, self-produced and self-performed, paired with cinematic visuals that fuse modern luxury with underground grit, positioning Jairic as a rising presence at the intersection of music, film and fashion.
From Detroit Roots to Global Reach
Born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and now based in Cannes, France, Jairic was shaped early on by a deeply musical family. He began his career producing hip hop for local Detroit artists before stepping into his own raw, cinematic and fiercely independent sound. Drawing influence from Nas, Wu-Tang Clan, Detroit’s underground scene, classic funk, 1960s rock and film scores, his music blends lyrical intensity with genre-defying production.
Jairic’s n=40: A Defining Creative Statement
n=40 represents the sharpest refinement of Jairic’s artistry to date. Across eight tightly packed tracks, the EP delivers incendiary instrumentals and forceful lyricism designed to move both body and mind. The focus track, “Yolo 2 Yoga”, is an electrifying experimental hip hop cut that will resonate with fans of A$AP Rocky, Eminem and Kanye West.
Directed by Vansh Luthra, the accompanying video follows Jairic as he confronts and revisits multiple versions of his past self, ultimately celebrating the person he has become. “Yolo 2 Yoga” captures the EP’s core spirit: raw, high-energy and uncompromising, pairing Jairic’s effortless flow and commanding visual presence with a thrashing instrumental that serves as a soundtrack to self-liberation.

Reflecting on the project, Jairic describes n=40 as a moment of ongoing battle rather than reflection, underscoring a career defined by intention, discipline and forward motion.
