Exclusive Interview with JWhy! @JWhyThatsWhy

By Lana Bell • On Interviews ,

The oth­er week I caught up with Lon­don based pro­du­cer and rap­per JWhy in Cam­den. JWhy’s debut EP The Writ­ing Time has just dropped and so has the video for the lead single off the EP ‘Where Do You Want To Go’. The new EP has an ambi­ent feel remin­is­cent of the early 90’s hip hop sound of A Tribe Called Quest or De La Soul. This EP is def­in­itely one for the smokers out there and those suf­fer­ing from either 90’s hip hop nos­tal­gia or sum­mer­time sadness.

It’s early days for JWhy but he is clearly enam­oured with the pro­cess of mak­ing music for music’s sake. His love for music mak­ing is exem­pli­fied in the eponym­ous track Writ­ing Time where he spits over a min­im­al­ist­ic gui­tar loops about the cre­at­ive writ­ing pro­cess. Recently his music has been played on BBC Radio 6 & the response so far has been very pos­it­ive. Just like his title track Where Do You Want To Go, I Am Hip Hop pre­dicts JWhy is going to go far. Check out our inter­view with him where we talk hip hop her­oes; hip hop edu­ca­tion and the future.
