Biography
Music
Jay started being a part of the rap scene in the Bogalusa area since 2016.[9] One of the reasons he dropped out of high school is because he felt he had enough confidence to take on the rap scene.
Each time he recorded he would go into a heightened creative roll behind the recording mic.[9] As he says:
I just did it cause it was some sht I was able to do... People would turn a beat on and I would just start going crazy.*
After two years of putting a lot of effort into his rapping and music, he began to rack up millions of streams across multiple major social media platforms due to his intoxicating free-spirited approach to rap.
Style
The Louisiana native comes from a place of telling his life stories and experiences in his raps.
[9] He usually entrenches himself in inside the studio booth and allows for the real life stories to spill out into potential songs.
He does not like to hear anything or anybody talking.
His main preference in his mode of working out songs is by allowing his thoughts from the past take shape into his lyrics.
As he says, "I just think about the past.
That’s what people want to hear; they want to hear what they couldn’t see."
Here's a review about Jay from HYPEBEAST:
He flourishes in the traditional down-south bounce as a vehicle to deliver well-rapped recollections of past trauma, sermons on survival and paranoid, trigger-clutching gun talk. Alternating between the pained, poetic crooning native to his part of the south and agile, blistering flows worthy of an Olympic sport competition, the rapper consolidates all of his region’s current sonic signatures into a vivid portrayal of what modern Louisiana has to offer. Popular artists in his corner of the country have a tendency to express themselves through their studio’s mics like blues artists used to through their guitars, and that style of rap flows effortlessly out of Jay.
Jay is a combination of Chief Keef, Kevin Gates, and Lil Boosie. [9]
