Shooting to fame on social media when an Ibiza clothing brand shared a video of him dancing, the Newcastle-based lad is now a recognisable face.
Social media users instantly loved Jack's unique look with his bold haircut and gold jewellery.
He was quickly branded as the "Ibiza Final Boss" and hasn't looked back since - embracing it entirely.
"Final boss" is a joke from the gaming world used to suggest someone is the ultimate version of a particular stereotype.
After a flurry of internet attention, the Final Boss dramatically revealed himself in an interview with The Ibiza Times.
"I am the Ibiza final boss. Jack Kay. Get to know," he said.
The words Jack spoke now feature in a brand new song.
Jack has teamed up with Carnao Beats to release a track called Ibiza Final Boss.
The song is bouncy and upbeat, making it perfect for clubbing or dancing in Ibiza.
Fans have already gone wild over the new track.

"Don't know how this happened but sounds great," said one person, reacting to the tune on social media.
"This is absolutely brilliant. It's nice to see an ordinary bloke have a bit of luck!
"Make the most of it and wish you all the best of luck with your journey," penned a second.
"So sick," added a third.
"Actually a banger this track," wrote a fourth.
"Tunes a banger," said a fifth.
This comes after Jack's viral fame caught the eye of ITV2's Big Brother casting team.
This then led to conversations about him joining the upcoming series.
A source told The Sun recently: 'The Ibiza Final Boss has really captured the nation's imagination and is exactly the kind of character that makes for a fun Big Brother housemate.
"Bosses had talks with his management, it is very late in the casting process for housemates but everyone thought worth a chat whether it be in time for this series, even as part of a task, or for the future.
'Jack's reps Neon Management have been inundated with offers for him so he's certainly going to be busy for at least the next few months.
'They've seen an unprecedented level of interest in him, and that's the nation loves him.'
This also comes off the back of the lad revealing he was going on a nightclub tour to cash in on his fame.

Liam Gallagher's sad link to tragic Irish uncle he's named after
'William was killed in a workplace accident' Liam Gallagher on stage at their Oasis Live 25 Concert at Croke Park. Photo: Steve Humphreys The Gallagher brothers have invited their Drogheda-based cousins to their Dublin shows – with Liam sharing a touching bond with them as he's named after their tragic father. The Sunday World has learned that William Gallagher, a brother of Liam and Noel's dad Tommy, was tragically killed in a workplace accident in the early 1970s. The same family are grieving again after William's son, Alan 'Rusty' Gallagher, a first cousin of the Oasis stars, died unexpectedly earlier this year. 'William, or Liam as he was known, was killed in a workplace accident,' reveals a family friend. 'I think he was working for a cement factory and was tragically killed at one of their sites. 'He left behind his wife Mary and their four young song, Mark, Derek, Willie and Alan. 'Liam Gallagher was named William after him in his honour and his memory, and shorted his name like his uncle did to Liam when he was growing up.' Tommy and William originally hailed from Duleek, Co. Meath, with the Oasis's star's father moving to Manchester, where he met their Mayo-born mother Peggy. Peggy, who still lives in Manchester and also has a holiday home in her native Charlestown Co. Mayo, is due to travel to the Dublin concerts this weekend. But Tommy, who has been estranged from his sons for over 30 years, is not welcome and has gone to ground in recent years with few people knowing his whereabouts. Family portrait of the Gallagher family in the mid 1970's from left to right Noel, Paul, Liam and Mum Peggy Gallagher (Photo by Dan Callister/Liaison) 'William/Liam Gallagher and his family lived in the Ballsgrove estate in Drogheda,' reveals our source. 'I can remember when the Gallagher lads from Manchester used to come over on holidays and used to kick football in the green with their cousins. 'Everyone could remember the English lads in their bright coloured flares — it was Noel and their older brother Paul. Liam was too young at the time to be allowed out. 'The joke among the locals is 'we used play football with Oasis up in the green in Ballsgove'. 'Other locals can remember Tommy and Peggy giving them one pound coins as little treats when they were kids.' Mary is still alive and is fondly talked about as a kind-hearted woman by locals in the Co. Louth town. Liam and Noel Gallagher on stage at Croke Park. Photo: Steve Humphreys 'There's a sad footnote to all this as one of her sons, a son of William, died unexpectedly at his home in Drogheda back in March this year,' he adds. 'He worked for Bus Éireann and left behind four children and three grandkids, and his death shocked the local community as he was a lovely guy and liked by everyone.' When Oasis played in Cork in 1996 their Drogheda cousins were treated like VIPs in Páirc Uí Chaoimh. 'They had backstage all areas passes and were looked after then,' discloses our source. 'They've been invited again this weekend to the Croke Park shows. 'Oasis usually highlight someone who's recently died in their live version of Live Forever, which they did as shows for the likes of Ozzy Osbourne and Diogo Jota, and I'm sure Alan will be in their thoughts when they're playing it in Croker as they would have basically grown up with their cousin and had fond childhood memories.' Noel Gallagher at Croke Park. Photo: Steve Humphreys Oasis also have another tragic connection to their time travelling to Ireland, revolving around the pub they used frequent. As teenagers they went to their dad Tommy's native Duleek in Co. Meath. 'He [Liam] was good at pool, but he was also good at the pull too,' Tommy once said. 'All the girls in the village were mad for him. I made a man out of him — he was drinking pints of lager in Big Tom's pub, winning games of pool for a fiver and being a bit of a hit with the birds.' Big Tom's closed down nearly 30 years ago and the owner of the pub was tragically killed in a car accident. John Reilly, from Bellewstown, Co. Meath, was aged 81 when, in December 2003, his vehicle was involved in a deadly collision with another on the M1 outside Monasterboice, Co. Louth. 'He was nicknamed 'Big Tom' by locals as he named his pub after the country and western singer with that nickname, Tom McBride,' reveals a local. 'Tommy and the Gallagher lads would have known him well and would have been shocked at the tragic way he died.'

'Echoes of the Isles' celebrates heritage of Atlantic islands through art
A new exhibition, 'Echoes of the Isles', will run in Atlantic Technological University (ATU) Galway city library from August 18-22, as part of National Heritage Week. Funded through the Heritage Stewardship Fund by the Heritage Council, the collaborative project highlights the cultural and ecological heritage of Ireland's Atlantic islands through contemporary visual art and digital heritage. Róisín Doherty - Clocha Tite, 2025 'Echoes of the Isles' features new work by artists Róisín Doherty and John Flynn, both of whom draw inspiration from the interwoven themes of landscape, folklore, archaeology, and memory. Their work aims to bring attention to both the tangible and intangible aspects of island life, exploring how tradition, nature, and community interact in these unique environments. Róisín Doherty, originally from Cruit Island, Co. Donegal, is a Co. Galway-based artist whose multidisciplinary approach combines drawing, painting, sound, photography, and found objects, is one of those featured. A recent graduate of the MA in Creative Practice at ATU Galway, she has exhibited nationally and internationally, including at the 2021 United Nations Climate Change Conference, otherwise known as COP26, in Glasgow. Her contribution to the project reflects on the fragile machair habitats and the erosion of traditional island life, offering a poetic and immersive engagement with Ireland's coastal ecology and cultural heritage. John Flynn, a visual artist from Cork, creates work that blends mythology, archaeology, and the natural world. Influenced by Ireland's deep tradition of storytelling, he provides new visual interpretations of ancient narratives, using his practice to bridge past and present in fresh and accessible ways. John Flynn - Inchagoill 12th century doorway, 2025 The 'Echoes of the Isles' will be overseen by ATU's Gary Dempsey, a digital heritage expert at the School of Design & Creative Arts and a member of ATU's heritage research group. Inspired by the work of 19th-century antiquarian artists whose field drawings accompanied archaeological exploration, he sees art as a powerful means of communicating heritage to the wider public. Dempsey said: ''Echoes of the Isles' is about reconnecting people with place. 'It honours the knowledge embedded in island landscapes and shows how artistic practices can make that knowledge visible and shareable.' The exhibition provides a window into Ireland's island heritage, raising awareness of the islands' ongoing transformation, and the value of safeguarding their stories, species, buildings, and traditions. Visitors are invited to consider the importance of heritage not just as history, but as something alive and continually shaped by community, environment and creativity. All are welcome to the exhibition, and admission is free. More information is available on the Heritage Week website or from Gary Dempsey, School of Design & Creative Arts, ATU Galway.

At just 22, the Kerry-based artist has gained recognition for his unique graffiti realism style, using aerosol spray paint on recycled materials.

Subjects include cultural icons like John B. Keane and Peig Sayers, sporting legends such as David Clifford and Mary Jo Curran, and internationally renowned actors including Jessie Buckley and Michael Fassbender. 'This collection celebrates those who have shaped Kerry's identity,' Paul said. 'It honours both well-known and forgotten heroes who've made a lasting impact locally and beyond,' he added. The exhibition is presented by the Department of Culture in partnership with Kerry County Council. Minister Patrick O'Donovan will officially launch the project. The event is open to the public, and all are welcome to attend. Michael Moore of the Department of Culture added, 'We're delighted to host this powerful exhibition, which highlights the depth of Kerry's cultural influence.'
