Jansport J Free Beat Competition
It’s funny how small the world is. Jansport J, an extremely talented up and coming from the west coast, is producing a whole EP Ballads for Ballers, Love Songs For Losers for the homie P.H.I.L.T.H.Y. The funny thing is, I initially knew Jansport’s homie PCO, another emcee, before I met him and they used to be members of the same rap crew. Amazing.
Since then I’ve become a lot more familliar with his work, and he has a really nice soul sound reminiscent of a 9th Wonder or a Khrysis. Recently he put forth the opportunity to record a track over his a beat he demonstrated the creation of on Youtube. He’s accepting submissions for those tracks and the artist(s) with the song of the highest quality will recieve another free beat from him plus extras. Here’s a link to the competition in full detail, plus videos of the sample he flipped and the beat making process.
