Jay Electronica is not your average emcee. His methods are different and with the sounds of Madlib, the late Jay Dee and Mr. Porter, the New Orleans nomadic wordsmith who tends to move whichever way the wind moves him, has arrived.
With ancestral lyricism that is hypnotic, simple and complex simultaneously, the immediate acceptance from the people is a testament that good music is still sought after by the true hip-hop heads and fans of good music alike. So far, Jay Electronica has been putting out his music on the internet, free to download for the people who look hard enough to find it.
