Oh Canada, how you keep on delivering great musicians. Nope, for a change I’m not referring to Justin Bieber or Drake. Rockstone loves to present you another musical talent called JAHKOY (Jahkoy Palmer in real life). Because in the jungle of new artists you sometimes stumble upon something you need to cherish.
Originally from Toronto, this young artist moved to LA to boost his career and reach a new audience in the city where plain mortals turn into celebrities. In an interview with Noisey he states: “The community and market of music [in Toronto] isn’t as big as we think it is. And it’s never going to expand to the length that we expect it to.”
It seems to work. If you listen to ‘All the Things You Do’ it must ring some sort of bell. And if not, then we’ll give you this before endorsing his other tracks. Slowly but surely JAHKOY is gaining more followers and increasing his popularity. But why is it you should listen to this artist? For starters, his music is surprisingly diverse. Every track has a different vibe, while still being recognizable. Think up tempo beats with a r&b vibe, slow jams that fit every mood and rhymes on accessible tunes. His calm voice is soothing and, to be honest, kind of sexy. Especially his track ‘Still in Love’ is so soothing and relaxed it could complete your road trip, but also set the mood for a night out. Make sure to also check out his recently released ‘Odd Future’ to notice the different styles.
