Our TapSongz Team has been searching for talented up and coming artists throughout the past couple of months to help give them the spotlight and credit they they deserve. We came across Kay Jay, a very hard working aspiring rapper out of Springfield, Massachusetts. We had the chance to catch up with Kay Jay and learn more about his latest mixtape as well as what his goals are moving forward.
Kay Jay had a music background from the beginning. "I grew up being tied to music, I sang in choirs growing up be it in school or church," Kay Jay told our TapSongz Team. Growing up, his biggest inspiration was Jay-Z for a variety of reasons. "He found a way to grow in complexity and simplicity simultaneously when it comes to the writing aspect of the music," he said. Kay Jay is one of the most motivated artists that we have interviewed and we know he will go far.
Kay Jay recently dropped a brand new mixtape "Dear Winter" on Audiomack. "The overall concept of the mixtape had to do with the concept of writing...hence 'Dear'. And 'Winter' being the coldest season because it does a larger amount of work while not being acknowledged for it," Kay Jay said. "Creative writing pushes the culture forward while all of the credit is given to more of the music on the surface." Kay Jay is hungry for success and his music continues to improve and progress in the right direction.
Our TapSongz Team really enjoyed the single "Dear Winter" from the mixtape. It is a special one for Kay Jay as well. "It acknowledges the nostalgic feel of Hip-Hop where you pride yourself on your lyricism and talk about the world you live in as you view it." The track is definitely worth a listen. Kay Jay's favorite track from the project is "Limited Centuries", a tune with some powerful lyrics as the rapper puts his whole heart into the song. "It creates a listening experience that creates mental images throughout the whole song and I appreciate how it does that," Kay Jay said.
As for the rest of 2016, Kay Jay will continue to pursue music and looks to gain more exposure, saying that relaxing will come secondary to his music. He can be found on all social media under the name @musicbyKayJay and his website is linked below! Toss him a follow to stay up to date with his latest releases and be sure to give his mixtape a listen on Audiomack! Here at TapSongz, we thank you for reading this feature article as we continue finding tomorrow's greatest music today!
