ONE TO WATCH: Jay Alpha

Brooklyn beatmaker Jay Alpha is our One To Watch.

This One To Watch has been a long time coming as I’ve been privy to Jay Alpha’s music for quite some time. The producer, straight out of NYC, stays close to his roots when it comes to murky aesthetics but pushes the boat out a little further with some trippy elements reminiscent of a certain Detroit native. His latest track “StarGazed.” is a perfect example of this as the kick drum pounds through a celestial sounding sample – the rap game yin and yang.

Stream his music below and keep tabs on this guy.
