In a Entertainment World that has become complacent in recent times, Its artist such as Washington DC born Jay Cube that’s fueling the re-emergence of popular music. The Artist To Watch In 2017, according to Huffington Post, is breathing fresh air to the music world.The Singer, known as the "Golden Sound", Songwriter, Dancer, and Fashion Icon has revolutionized the pop/afro pop sound that’s become the new wave, not only the U.S., but in european markets as well. The popularity surrounding the young star can be attributed to his distinctive, melodic vocals that’s drawn the comparison of Mega Star Akon. Righteously so! Industry wide, Jay Cube has become known as the go to source for hooks and remixes due to his edgy, but flexible vocal range. As the demand for Jay Cube talents increase, so does the contagious humbleness. Jay Cube, ladies and gentlemen, is an artist on a crusade that’s sure to leave a lasting impression of greatness for years to come.

There is something to be said about a musician that defies the laws of creativity. Since exploding on the scene in 2012 with the commercial hit “My Type”, Jay Cube has quickly become a permanent fixture on airwaves from Los Angeles to the United Kingdom, and Africa. The rich distinction in his voice, comes equipped with tradition that’s planted from his days of singing in the choir and then on to become the lead vocalist of the DMV based group Apexx. However, those humble beginnings have paved a way for what has been labeled as His Time. From dropping the critically acclaimed mixtape “7YC” in 2012 to the present, momentum has shifted to almost euphoric levels which keeps fans wanting more. Recently, we heard his greatness on Sharaya J’s remix to the hit, B.A.N.J.I. featuring Missy Elliot, (Afro EDM Remix) produced by DJ Soupa Model. To define Jay Cube would be a grave injustice to the art! “I don’t like to be put in a box with my music says Jay Cube. I love numerous genres of music. If it feels good to me, i write and compose to it. I can flow and bring my afro fusion melodies to the table when needed. I can do pop or urban at the same time. I like being unpredictable. Love it!” ~Jay Cube With a slate of features on major American acts set for 2017, the stage has been set for an epic collision with stardom. You can hear him lending his melodic and distinct vocal range on the newly release song "Sleep On You" by Issa Ft. Tory Lanez & Jay Cube. In addition, a solo project from Jay Cube is on the horizon with a tour to follow this spring. Be sure to look out for the man, the artist, the voice of greatness ~ Mr. Jay Cube
