Combining aspects of lyrical hip-hop with tendencies of more club-based bangers, JayIDK creates music that sits squarely at the intersection of several sounds which come together to create an aesthetic that is both endearing and abrasive, with enough to keep one’s mind busy. On “Hungry” he turns the tables from previous releases, opting for a more ethereal, rap-heavy track than what listeners have heard from the up-tempo DMV rapper. Here we get bars over the gritty boom-bap backing beat that accentuates the emotion and passion in his words.

“I want the world to know that I am more than a rap artist. I produce, direct and do a lot of other things and I have a lot of ambition for growth. I think the key to anything is longevity. I found a way to speak to our generation in a way that they will listen and I have a lot to say.” – JayIDK
