Standout: "My Heart"

Also check out: "Rambo"

And: "In My Zone"

Name: Jae Tips

Age: 22

Where I'm from: The Boogie Down Bronx

My style has been compared to: Kanye West, Ghostface Killah & J Cole

My standout records and/or moments have been: "Fucking With My Heart" which sampled Reggae artist Wayne Marshall has been my biggest joint. I had one of the girls in the video burning my kicks, and i threw a pic on Instagram and it went viral. It was all over the Internet, getting posted on some of the blogs that me as a music lover check out daily. It blew my mind when it first happened. I couldn't believe I could be getting acknowledged for my pen game.

I’m gonna change the game by: Being Consistent, hungry and passionate. A lot of musicians are afraid of putting their real life and problems on wax, or talk about things that actually matter. I'm just focused on bringing the real back.

I’d like to work with: Ellie Goulding, The Script, Nipsey Hussle and of course, Kanye west.

My goal in Hip-Hop is: To inspire and motivate anyone who felt like giving up on a dream, whether it be fighting for a promotion at their day job or making it big time in the rap game. I wanna fuel the world with positive energy and hope. Coming from the bottom doesnt count you out. It should give you more of a reason to go hard. I'm a regular dude who works full time at Footlocker, who spends too much money on kicks, but i know what i really want out of this game. I really just want to inspire those who think there's no way out.

I’m gonna be the next: I'm not trying follow in anybody's footsteps, so I'm not gonna name drop. I'm just going to continue to be me, and make the music I love. I'mma be the first "Jae Tips". I wanna be the greatest who ever did it and promise I will be.
