J The S - Wish You Were Here [Premiere]
Producer: Lion's Share Music
Album: Wish You Were Here
Label: Unsigned
After hearing producers Franco & Snipe B repurpose a couple riffs from Smells Like Teen Spirit on J The S’ last Booth feature, I was half expecting the title track off the emcee’s forthcoming, IM King/2DopeBoyz/DJBooth-cosponsored mixtape to draw inspiration from Pink Floyd’s hit of the same name, but as it turns out, Wish You Were Here shares nothing more than a title with the ‘75 single. In reality, the newly-leaked cut (making its world premiere in the Booth!) is a wistfully nostalgic jam which finds the Boston representative giving fans a little insight into his life story, in the process paying tribute to a few family members who didn’t live to see him grow into a hip-hop superstar. Lion’s Share Music‘s sweeping boardwork, driven by slow-burning orchestral samples, sets a cinematic mood as Jake delivers densely-packed, autobiographical bars. A reflective, ear-pleasing track well-deserving of repeat spins, WYWH is just one of many fresh cuts set to appear on J The S’ latest street release, scheduled to hit our front page next Tuesday, March 9.

Sample chop is raw. His flow gets a little tired as it went it on and i would have liked to hear come back in. I like the overall vibe though

Jake has true substance and its on full display on this premiered title track. This new project - out next Tuesday - is seriously an impressive body of work and I encourage anyone who digs this record to check it out when its available.

The beat is really nice and the thought out and observant lyrics by JtheS gives plenty of reason to listen attentively.
