Jah Jr.:”Back 2 Da Dub” [Album Stream]

By Leave a Comment

I introduced you guys to Georgia’s own Jah Jr. a while ago and to be honest I haven’t been able to keep up with how fast his ascension is happening. The last two years Jah has won the John Lennon Songwriting Award and that songwriting explodes on his full-length album “Back 2 Da Dub”.

Filled with vibrant and colorful production Jah Jr. takes us to where he grew up, he shows us the darkness and struggle that he came from with honest storytelling and interludes to piece the painting together. Despite all of this, Jah Jr. always shows love for Dublin. “Back 2 Da Dub” is one of the more focused and consistent projects I’ve heard this year. If you have the chance to see him at Atlanta’s A3C I strongly suggest doing so. Until then you can stream “Back 2 Da Dub” below. We’ll be interviewing Jah Jr. very soon.

Jah Jr.: “Front Porch” [Music Video]

I’m a sucker for hometown anthems (or really any track that represents an artists hometown, you get my point), I was in college when Black & Yellow came out, Kid Cudi representing Ohio was an unbelievable moment in hip-hop for me. So when Dublin, Georgia emcee Jah. Jr released visuals for his track “Front Porch” I knew a heater was afoot.

Jah Jr. embraces the culture of his home in “Front Porch” and I have to give props to Jah for being unequivocally himself in this banger. Rumor has it, the Georgia native is getting set to release a project later this Fall, for now throw “Front Porch” in the whip, you won’t regret it.
