Jam Young- Jazzy Shit (Higher) Official Music Video



I can't believe it's been almost a year since my last post and my last video. My oh my how life has changed... mostly for the better. For a prime example of this check the video above. It's amazing how god and the higher powers can change your life when you start listening and doing. For so long I've had so many insecurities about music, making it-sharing it (I still do but not as much) and I allowed that to hold me back but not anymore. The video above is a representation of things and ambitions I have always done right and those I haven't. Jazzy Shit (Higher) is one of my oldest songs but it has something, a feel or maybe the lyrics, that I love and which people gravitate towards. I think I wrote the song over 4 years ago but thanks to Alex (who mixed the tape) and some decent old vocals (thanks Ed) the track still sounds fresh. But the video is way fresher. I shot this in chicago with 9 of my closest and dearest friends and it was so much fun. An hour of fun. This is how music videos and music is supposed to make you feel...like you want to have fun. So I hope you enjoy.

Jam Young- King's Poet (Official Video)


On January 27, 2015 I dropped my first official mixtape entitled "The King's Poet." The mixtape was an embodiment of everything I went through from 2010-2014. 17 Tracks, with 4 bonus songs. I spent almost a thousand on mixing it down and though most of the songs I never re-recorded I thought and still find it to be an awesome start to my Hip-Hop Discography.

The first track, the title track "King's Poet," which the instrumental can be found on Hannibal King's "Lifestyles of the Fat and Shameless" was and still is one of my favorite tracks on the CD and of all time. I wrote the track crying in the kitchen of my grandmother's living room. It's fierce, it's bloody, and it's real...aggressive. This video I hope reflects those emotions and thanks to the greatness of AK (Aaron Katter) Films, my first video off the project has come to life.

Enjoy,
