New Boy Band JYT Signs With Republic Records
5 Dec, 2025
Summary
- Five-member boy band JYT signed by Republic Records and Freddy Wexler.
- Group members are aged 15-17 and chose each other for formation.
- JYT amassed over 500,000 followers before music release.
A new boy band named JYT, comprised of five members aged 15 to 17, has secured a joint record deal with Republic Records and Grammy-nominated producer Freddy Wexler. The group's formation was unconventional, with members reportedly choosing one another, and they have spent the last year undergoing rigorous training in Los Angeles.
Under the guidance of choreographers like Nick DeMoura, who has worked with major artists, JYT has honed their skills. Their debut single, 'What U Want,' and its music video were released on Friday, December 5th. This strategic launch aims to capitalize on the band's pre-existing popularity, having already attracted over half a million followers across various platforms before any music was officially out.
Freddy Wexler expressed his enthusiasm for the project, stating that JYT is not manufactured but a group that chose each other, positioning them to potentially become America's next global boy band. Republic Records founder Monte Lipman echoed this sentiment, highlighting a long-standing professional relationship with Wexler and confidence in JYT's potential impact on the music industry.
