BIOGRAPHY

Jermaine Riley is a British-bred singer, songwriter, producer and multidisciplinary creative who first came to prominence in the early 2000s as the lead vocalist of UK R&B trio Fun*dmental ’03. As a solo artist, he has built a reputation for independent excellence, writing, producing and visually directing his own projects — including the acclaimed Hello Earth — and earning international recognition such as a World Pop Music Award for “R&B Pioneer” during a performance in South Korea.

Expanding beyond music, Riley is the co-founder and artistic force behind Kindred Comics Ltd., a London-based independent publisher he launched with Glen Murphy. Through Kindred he writes and illustrates Extraman, a futuristic, character-driven superhero property that reflects his lifelong love of comics, visual storytelling and world-building, establishing him as a rising voice in UK independent comics.

Further showcasing his creative range, Riley is also the songwriter, creator and brand architect behind dailyte — an AI-fronted recording artist concept blending contemporary R&B and Afropop aesthetics with minimalist digital identity and narrative world-building. Developing the music, lyrical voice, tone and visual language for dailyte, Riley continues to push the boundaries of authorship, identity and creativity across music, technology and storytelling — engaging audiences as a genuine cross-media innovator.
