According to me, Jaah's is definitely the future. I was 5 music videos in when I noticed I had become infatuated with his artistic visuals that expressed his music. What fascinated me the most was his musical taste being from the south.

Where many pull from the motivations of DaBaby or Yo Gotti type of flow, Jaah is on an entire different highway. He's put his style into a box that I'm undeniably loving! After our conversation, his humble nature formed a memory in my head that I'll never forget. Here's why so many people are saying that Jaah SLT is underrated: 

Nia Rice: Coming from Charlotte you’re presenting such a different - and more eclectic - sound. What statement does your music make? How have the people of Charlotte supported your sound?

JS: When it comes to making music, I am not really trying to make a statement. I focus on making different sounds without sounding repetitive. There are haters who have not been as supportive of my sound, but there are just as many people who vibe.

NR: Congrats on signing with Alamo. I know your mim went viral and things picked up quickly. What were some hidden gems that prepared you for this level of success you’re in?

JS: I posted "Tuff' not expecting it to blow up like it did-- actually it was the absolutely last song that I expected to blow up. Every song that I put out is my best song, but I did not expect "Tuff" to be the one that blew up.

NR:  Spotify Viral Charts, Shazam Top 200, and Rolling Stone Charts - is amazing. But what’s the most important part of your music career? Will it be a list, awards, charts, streams, fans, etc?

JS: The most important part of my music career is being able to reflect on my progress, listening to the music that I've made, and seeing how far  I've evolved. I also think the most important part of my music career is seeing how I have been able to impact and influence people. I love it when people say they listen to my music and express how underrated they feel I am.

NR: “Can I Get That”, “Chevy”, and “Fake Ass Love” are bangers! What kind of visuals are you anticipating? You are known for diverse colors, and interchangeable scenes - however remaining traditional. What lane are you taking this time?

JS: I put all my trust in and leave all the creative direction of my video directors. When we talk about lanes, directing is not my lane right now in my career, so I stick to what I know best and focus on perfecting this one thing. To top it off, when I watch other people’s videos, I wonder how they think of that. So instead of stressing myself out, I allow others to do what they do best and show what they can do.

NR: I always end my interviews with a legacy question. What do you want your legacy to stand for?

JS: I want people to remember me as just being cool and chill, as someone that is focused on enjoying the now and the journey and not focusing on the next and being humble.
