MIAMI, FL — The world of R&B just got a little brighter, a little smoother, and a lot more real. Tyler Watts, the Miami-born artist hailed as one of R&B’s brightest young voices, has officially released his highly anticipated new EP, “YOUNGIN Pt. 2,” now available on all streaming platforms. Released under FYB Records, the independent label founded by multi-platinum R&B superstar Jacquees, this project marks a defining chapter in Watts’ artistic journey, a coming-of-age story told through heartfelt melodies, emotional depth, and unshakable authenticity.

For fans who fell in love with his debut project “YOUNGIN,” this second installment offers not just a continuation but a transformation. “YOUNGIN Pt. 2” is a masterclass in growth, proof that Tyler Watts isn’t content with just being good; he’s determined to be great. Every song feels like a reflection of his soul, blending the smooth sensuality of classic R&B with the modern, melodic touch that resonates with today’s audience.

At just 18 years old, Tyler Watts carries himself like a seasoned veteran. His vocals glide effortlessly between tenderness and power, each lyric soaked in emotion and sincerity. Leading the EP is the stunning single “Anything to Know,” produced by XL Eagle, a track that perfectly encapsulates Watts’ musical identity: passionate, relatable, and refreshingly honest. The accompanying music video, premiering on REVOLT, showcases his undeniable screen presence, confident yet vulnerable, polished yet real. It’s the kind of performance that separates stars from hopefuls.

“Youngin was the intro, Part 2 is the update,” says Watts. “I’m still moving with the same heart and the same grind. This is just the next step in the journey.”

And what a journey it’s been. From humble beginnings in Miami to stages across the country, Tyler has turned raw talent into unstoppable momentum. His viral single “Prettiest Girl” and the Top 30 Urban Radio remix “Prettiest Girl (QueMix)” featuring Jacquees have accumulated over 6.6 million streams and hundreds of thousands of fan videos on TikTok and Instagram. The record’s impact was amplified by co-signs from major names like Winnie Harlow and GloRilla, solidifying Watts’ place as one of the most promising young artists shaping modern R&B.

The past year has been nothing short of extraordinary for the young star. Tyler recently wrapped up the Bunna B’s Ice Cream Girl Roadshow Tour, following his standout performances on the sold-out Jacquees and Dej Loaf “F*ck a Friend Zone II” Tour. He’s not just performing, he’s commanding every stage he touches. This fall, he’ll continue that momentum with appearances at several HBCUs, including Florida A&M University and Xavier University, where he’ll open for Mariah The Scientist, a major milestone for any young artist.

Fans will soon have the chance to experience his new era up close at the “YOUNGIN Pt. 2” EP Release Party & Livestream, taking place November 7 at FYB Recording Studio in Miami, hosted by Zoe Spencer. It’s not just a celebration, it’s a statement. Tyler Watts is here, and he’s not slowing down.

Behind the accolades and streaming numbers lies a story of dedication, discipline, and undeniable talent. Tyler’s love affair with music began when he was just three years old, nurtured under the watchful eye of the late, legendary Betty Wright, who recognized his rare gift early on. As a member of Phil Collins’ Little Dreamers Foundation, Watts developed not only his voice but his confidence, learning how to perform, connect, and inspire.

Now under the mentorship of Jacquees and the creative umbrella of FYB Records, Tyler is stepping into his own lane, fusing old-school soul with the vibrancy of today’s R&B, creating music that’s both timeless and trendsetting. He isn’t chasing the sound of the moment, he’s shaping the sound of what’s next.

“YOUNGIN Pt. 2” isn’t just an EP, it’s a declaration. It’s the sound of an artist coming into his own, owning his voice, and setting the tone for a new generation of R&B dreamers. With every song, Tyler Watts invites listeners to feel, to believe, and to grow alongside him.

Tyler Watts is not just the future of R&B, he’s the proof that the genre’s heart still beats strong.
