It’s been more than six months since Jaidyn Alexis appeared with new songs. Now, she’s addressing any “one-hit wonder” comments that are popping up online!
On June 23, she took to X (formerly Twitter), apparently citing the feedback she received. “Jaidyn, they want to hear you rap again,” she shared. The next day, she gave an update on the time she spent away from the stand.
“I made music for 1 year and I’m a one-hit wonder, can you give me a chance (laughing emoticon) dammit,” she posted in X.

In addition to letting naysayers know that she’s planning a comeback, Jaidyn also spoke about the first anniversary of her rap debut on X.
For context, June 23, 2023 was the first time Jaidyn Alexis muzzled the internet with “Stewie,” mocking the comparisons she made to the “Family Guy” character.
“I have a big head, and yes, daddy, I have a big head,” she raps in the intro, adding, “Two kids, give me that new Benz if I’m Stewie, you’re stupid.”
From Wednesday (June 26th), the music video on YouTube has over 1.5 million views. Speaking to her over 376,000 followers on her one-year anniversary, she shared her gratitude for her fans’ continued support.
“A year ago I released my first song, thank you everyone for seeing the vision and supporting,” she wrote.

With Blueface on the beat (and often in the improvisations and lyrics), Jaidyn Alexis increased her popularity in rap. She released three additional songs and accompanying music videos. A month after ‘Stewie’, she released ‘Workout’ on July 24th. About six weeks later, on September 9, she released ‘Post Opp’, featuring Blueface.
But she really reached TikTok gold and replay value when she released ‘Barbie’ on October 2nd. In less than a year, the music video collected 12.1 million views, an incredible feat for a fledgling artist without an EP or album.
The popularity of this track ultimately led to a meeting with Columbia Records two weeks after its release. Then, on October 24, she revealed that the label had signed her. Contract details remained sealed. However, it is unclear if Jaidyn Alexis is still an artist on their roster at this time, as she does not appear on your “Artists” page.

Amid the success of ‘Barbie’ and her other tracks, Jaidyn Alexis took her music on the road with performances at clubs and events, including a controversial high school program in November.
What’s up with Jaidyn and Blueface?
In January, she and Blueface released a remix and the ‘Barbie’ video, which got about half the views of the original. Ten days after release, Blueface transformed into authorities to serve a sentence for violating the terms of his probation.
Since then, Jaidyn Alexis’ focus has seemed to shift to her love life and motherhood. Days after Blueface was put behind bars, she publicly kissed a women’s basketball player Josselyn Morris. At the end of February, they called it quits. This happened amidst Jaidyn visiting her children’s father in prison and defending his freedom.

Most recently, Jaidyn celebrated son’s 7th birthday in May and made sure Blue was part of the festivities with cutouts of her face at the party. The rapper ‘Th*tiana’ is expected house next month.
Meanwhile, it looks like his on-again, off-again girlfriend Chrisean Rock won’t be releasing any music of her own anytime soon, as she’s fighting charges in California and Oklahoma behind bars.
