Jay Wst is an underground hip-hop artist and makes that kind of blaze-gaze reflection type of music, that has your head moving and your body ready for more.

He raps about stories with his homies, life in this crazy world, making that money and doing things his way. This is a leader in his community who likes to call the shots and not have anyone gassing him up all the time.

He is a rapper that has so much talent and if he can get on the right feature or music festival, you will see him blow up.

When you get that one chance in life you have to take it and it feels like he will. In his own rebel way of course and he will always keep it real with his crew, as there is no other option.
