AJay! x Kayeandre - Voicemail

Originally born in Jackson, MS., AJay! came from very humble beginnings. He recalls most of his family members having a musical presence growing up, yet, he didn’t take an interest until high school. While attending Mississippi School of the Arts, a friend introduced him to ‘FL Studio.’ A leading, user-friendly, recording software, still dominantly used today. However, it wasn't until his college years at Full Sail University in Orlando, FL., where AJay! would go on to dedicate his time to the music. Upon graduating with his Bachelor's Degree, he got an internship with Icon Studios in Atlanta, GA. There he would meet key-individuals that would help shape his audio production career over the coming years. Around that same time, in 2016, AJay! would go on to land two big placements in the Atlanta Hip-Hop scene with Gucci Mane and Cap 1. Enticing a ‘starving-artist’ with a break-out opportunity, or so he thought. Towards the end of that year, AJay! grew tired of the Trap scene in Atlanta. His mixed appeal wanted more, but could not grasp it. Ultimately forcing him to take a mental break from the music industry altogether, for two years.

At the end of 2018, he decided to rebrand himself and go into a new direction with his production. Inspired by the genres of R&B and Hip-Hop his whole life, AJay! began redeveloping his sound, and found himself back in a stable position. He took the popular likes of Melodic-Soul, California Hip-Hop, and Trapsoul-R&B, and added his signature style to them. And no, I’m not talking about “Talk to Em AJay!” Though that cannot be forgotten, it is his drum patterns and chord choices which distinguish his appeal from the rest. Forward to today, AJay! has more recently signed a management deal with Co-Sign Radio/Co-Sign Records under Justin Polinsky (Founder & CEO). Since then, he has already done songs with OsheaCory Jones, LoverboyBass, and Kyle Banks, with more to come. This is only the beginning of a foreseeable future, and soon, he will get to tell his own stories. 

This song is about when meeting your one genuine love comes with its complications. She already has a man in her life, but claims he does not treat her right. She may live miles away, yet "Somehow you halfway across the world, but your still on my mind." The retraction between her stuck with him, while wanting you. Distances the chance of us ever being together.

Juju - Fairytale

They say a star is born every five minutes, and in this case, her name happened to be Jonisha McKiever. McKiever was born in Petersburg, VA, but grew up in Richmond, VA. She had mentioned to Co-sign Radio that she remembers that her parents had always grown fondly of the humming she did as a kid, and they knew right there she was destined to be a star. Music was a way of her feeling grounded as she would move a lot during her earlier days. Jonisha mentions that she started “writing poetry and raps at the age of 13”. This led her to write songs more fluently and effectively by the age of 16. As she grew older, she decided to proceed onward to college to pursue Business & Marketing. As time passed, she dropped out of school and grew tired of the white-collar lifestyle, and effortlessly maneuvered into music. Juggling many things, such; as work and music, she overcame obstacles and dropped her second studio track this following year. Jonisha is everything but lazy her work ethic is shown through her very raw and authentic lyrics. Its shown that Jonisha’s soul is in-tuned with 80s R&B, and she refers to Rick James and Luther Vandross as being great musical influences in shaping her music career. Jonisha sees music as a way to cope with everyday struggles, and it is evident that she is consistent with turning her negatives into positives.

Forget the times we want to last and dive into this deep, passionate, euphoric state. Filter out the headaches and traumas which coincide because Richmond, Virginia's very own JuJu, is here to ignite the spark you feel inside. As you continue to reminisce about the 808's and heartbreaks, you will care more for the ones who love you most. "Fairytale" is a one-of-a-kind artistry JuJu showcases to grasp what she has to come. Noting this is an official demo; while you listen, inhale, then exhale to see life clearer, so you can fully understand your worth because if you do not, who will?
