Below is a short interview with the upcoming underground artist jayloc.
How did you decide to become an artist?
jayloc: Actually I was into writing poetry to vent about things I was going through and that I had seen.. A friend of mine looked through them one day and asked if I ever thought about turning them into raps and invited me to join his group.
To feel the pain and emotion of the song when I’m recording and when I am performing.
What about concerts? Do you play live?
I do shows every now and then. my last show was in October and I am performing this coming may on the 16th.
Best punchline you ever wrote?
You niggas ain’t no gangstas you go ogling the facts, on how to flip a bird, on how to chunk the set
What are you currently working on? Did you release something in the past?
I just released my first album ”Back 2 Ground Zero” March 1st of this year.. I am currently working on my 2nd album ”From The Ground Up# right now.
Last but not least: Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
I would. . pros I can do my music for a living and support my family.. don’t think it’s too many cons as long as I do me
Any last words?
I’d like to give a shot out to God first of all for blessing me with so many talents. .
