Raised on hardcore/true-school ('93-'99) East Coast hip-hop, J-Kwest slings lyrical darts unlike any other. This rap veteran / hip-hop connoisseur hails from Burlington, Vermont, and his ever-changing style is truly a testament to uniqueness and creativity. Dissatisfied with the superficial and uninspired present state of hip-hop music, J spans a wide variety of topics that range from current events to politics, from personal issues to just sick wordplay -- not to mention a heavy dose of battle raps for good measure -- to enlighten through his talents while still keeping it original, interesting, and of course -- real. Production comes courtesy of Dr. Quandary, DJ MSP, Face One, and in-house producer BlazeStar, of BlazeStar Inc.Band/artist history
I've been writing rhymes for fun since I was about 12 or so; started taking writing and spittin altogether more seriously at around 14 or 15.Have you performed in front of an audience?I haven't really had too many booked 'shows' but I've had some chances to get out and do my thing in the Burlington underground scene. Truth be told, I'm more of a lay-low cat who would rather write than perform. You mighta seen me around town though... When I'm wasted I usually get up and rap somewhere, be it downtown or bogartin the mic at your favorite emcees' shows, lol.
