Multi-faceted R&B talent Ebubé (@thisisebube) returns with the announcement of his anticipated debut EP “Slow Jam Szn,” along with a brand new single “Poison.” The six-track project, which includes recent singles “Where I Wanna Be” and “Lay With Me,” is available on the 30th of May via independent label Lionbear Records.
Ebubé – “Poison” Song
“Poison,” a confessional anthem produced by Joe Gosling (FLO, Ndotz), delves into the intoxicating allure of a risky romance. With soulful melodies and gripping lyrics, Ebubé lays bare his willingness to surrender everything for a love that others might deem dangerous.
In his own words, Ebubé explains, “What might at first appear to be bad for you could actually be exactly what you need. This song is about just that; a relationship that even though others might have their judgments, that person is all you ever wanted.”
“Poison” captures the tension of a relationship that defies judgment, embodying the thrill of chasing what truly sets your heart ablaze. Overall, the song is a testament to Ebubé’s artistry, blending emotional depth with infectious rhythms that linger long after the final note.

“I wanted to bring back slow, sensual but meaningful R&B,” says Ebubé of the timeless EP, which blends a contemporary perspective with well-established R&B traditions. “‘Slow Jam Szn’ comes from a very personal and vulnerable place. I want to create a world in which listeners can be free to really feel the emotions they may hide deep down.”
“Slow Jam Szn” acts as a statement of intent for the rising R&B auteur. It offers insight into Ebubé’s rich musical foundation: the singer and multi-instrumentalist (EP tracks ‘Foresight’ and ‘What Can I Do’ are both self-produced) spent his formative years surrounded by R&B and gospel music before being classically educated – even playing in the orchestra at Eton, which he attended with a music scholarship.

Ebubé made an unexpected pivot when he reconnected with the music of his youth during the pandemic. He caught on fast via his R&B covers on TikTok, both in France and at home in the UK, where he eventually became a founding member of the Victoria Monet and Coco Jones co-signed group No Guidnce. Now, ready to step out alone, Ebubé is preparing to make his mark with a debut project that follows a tradition of timeless R&B that values love over toxicity.
