The discography of American rapper Jay Electronica consists of four studio albums, one extended play, two mixtapes, nine singles (including 6 as a featured artist), one promotional single, and thirty-eight guest appearances. His debut mixtape under the "Jay Electronica" name, Act I: Eternal Sunshine (The Pledge), was released on July 2, 2007, and became his breakout project, being downloaded 50,000 times in its first month. Its sequel, Act II: The Patents of Nobility (The Turn), was recorded from 2010 to 2012, but was shelved until it was released on October 5, 2020.
In 2009, Electronica released his debut single, "Exhibit A (Transmissions)", alongside his second single, the critically-acclaimed "Exhibit C", which peaked at number 86 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart and was remixed by numerous artists. It also started a bidding war that got him signed to Jay-Z's Roc Nation in 2010. In 2013, he was featured alongside Kendrick Lamar on Big Sean's "Control", which peaked at number 11 on the Billboard Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles chart, and in 2018, he was featured alongside Justin Bieber on Poo Bear's "Hard 2 Face Reality", which peaked at number 6 on the chart.
On March 13, 2020, he released his debut studio album, A Written Testimony. It contained the single "Shiny Suit Theory" (featuring Jay-Z and The-Dream), which was released back in 2018. The album itself was critically and commercially successful, charting at number 12 on the Billboard 200 and peaked at number 8 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart. It was also nominated for Best Rap Album at the 63rd Annual Grammy Awards. The album's third track, "The Blinding" (featuring Travis Scott) peaked at number 9 on the Billboard Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles chart, despite not being released as a single.
Electronica made his first appearance on the Billboard Hot 100 with the song "Jesus Lord" from Kanye West's album Donda in 2021, peaking at number 26 on the chart. He also appeared on the track's sequel, alongside The Lox. In 2025, Electronica rereleased Act I: Eternal Sunshine (The Pledge) and Act II: The Patents of Nobility (The Turn) onto streaming services. These re-released were followed by the album A Written Testimony: Leaflets on September 19, the extended play (EP) A Written Testimony: Power at the Rate of My Dreams, also released on September 19, and the album A Written Testimony: Mars, the Inhabited Planet on September 21.
