He continued,

“On the 22nd of December 2019, around 2:30 a.m., Don Jazzy sent me a direct message on Instagram.

I was asleep but for some reason, I was feeling uneasy in my sleep, so I woke up at about 5:30 a.m, picked up my phone and the first thing I saw was a direct message from Don Jazzy saying ‘Bonjour’.

It took me at least 15 minutes to process the whole thing and reply.

He said he saw my freestyle videos and thought to have a chat with me.

First time of meeting Don Jazzy, I felt great! It was at that moment I knew there was no going back,” he said.

Bayanni Speaks About His Stage Name

He also further explained the true meaning of his stage name, Bayanni.

He said,

“Bayanni is of a Philippine origin, and it means someone who is brave, fearless and determined.

I was born into a musically inclined family; all my siblings played at least one instrument and my mother would always sing to us at every opportunity she had.

I joined the choir at an early age, and when I was about seven years old, I was already playing musical instruments. So, I have always been doing music, but I only decided to do it professionally since 2016.”
