Interview with BlackJacketBoys

BLACKJACKETBOYS – Iris

“Iris” is a ferociously biting electronic song that will leave you grabbing for your peanut butter while banging your head. The sexy sounds that build up and then explode make BLACKJACKETBOYS the real deal. Electronic music is making a comeback and BLACKJACKETBOYS are going to hit the scene hard!

Rock the Hip Hop Interview with BLACKJACKETBOYS

What city are you from?

I am from Ocala, Florida

How has your city influenced your sound?

Well in Ocala there isn’t much of an electronic music scene, let alone Dubstep and Trap, so being in a smaller town kinda forces me to work harder to get promoted and out there, because of the lack of a local scene.

Tell us about your best performance?

I’d say my best performance was my Tough Luck/Just A Vibe live stream. It went really well and I think I did good on the editing, plus it was my first show so now that I’ve taken that leap, I feel confident to do many more!

Talk about your latest project

The lastest thing I have put out is my album, Whole New World. It has been received really well, and one of the songs has already hit 1k! The whole album is an allegory about growing up, and entering the ‘whole new world’ of adult hood. Songs like ‘Tough Luck’ and ‘Thoughts’ really reinforce this split feeling about growing older, in my opinion. I’m really proud of it, and I’m happy it has received much love!

Where do you see yourself in 5 years?

Definitely still doing this. I’m joining the military soon, but I’m not going to stop going hard on tracks and growing my fanbase. I really want BJB to become something that inspires others, and connects people. I want to be like Ace Aura or Virtual Riot one day, inspiring others like they’ve inspired me. It’s a dream that I’m looking forward to becoming a reality, if I’m blessed to see it.
