J-Live Information:
While he is unfortunately one of Hiphop's most slept on artists, J Live will release this third LP, The Hear After, on 7-19-05. J will release The Hear After on Penalty Recordings and produces the majority of the LP himself, with a little help from Soulive who added an organic feel to "Here."
Tracks to keep your ears peeled for include the LP's lead-single, "Audio Visual," "Firewater" and "Sidewalks" where J laments from the sidewalks up here watching the hiphop grow/and vice versa from the school battles to my own show/ I watched skill evolve and the next up blow/ motivated by the love for the art and the dough/ I seen people influenced by the next mans flow/ to the point tht it controls where they content go/ but if there's eight million stories and a handful of rappers/ we can't all be pimps, players, and clappers/ it sounds sexy coming out of ya sterio right?/ but then you wonder why we still getting stereotyped."
