Melvin Crispell Joins Jason Clayborn On New Single

Grammy® Award nominated singer-songwriter Jason Clayborn and Grammy® Award nominated singer on the rise, Melvin Crispell III, have come together on a dashing new urban inspirational groove entitled, “Whatever It Is” (JayClay Music / Tyscot), which releases on all major digital music stores and platforms on November 14, 2025. 

“`Whatever It Is’ came from a moment in my life where you feel as if no one sees the hard work you’ve put in,” Clayborn says. “Galatians 6:9 says,  `Let us not get weary in well doing for in due season we shall reap if we faint not’. I believe that God allows us to go through things to build us and make us stronger and He knows and sees all but there are times when He wants us to SIT THIS ONE OUT, put it in His hands and He’ll handle WHATEVER IT IS! He controls, knows and sees all. It doesn’t matter if man isn’t acknowledging you. God sees and honors your dedication to Him. When I wrote it, I could only hear one other voice on this song and that was MELVIN CRISPELL III. I called him up and he said, I’m in. He did it super justice. His anointing and giftedness gave this song exactly what was needed. It’s simple, but whatever you’re going through, God candle handle WHATEVER IT IS!”

The track was produced by Sean Keys (a musician who’s played behind the likes of Faith Evans and Keke Wyatt) and it was recorded at McKinley Studios in New Orleans, LA. “Sean Keyz is from there and they just have a unique sound,” Clayborn adds. “Mixing that New Orleans Bounce with the Midwest Flava was a win-win for me.”
