Broader than broadway...

What an action packed few weeks... when you think as big as me and my team, things don't get any calmer as you move towards your release date, you only grind harder!

Last week the album roll out got personal, as I shared some memories that I've been keeping somewhat private throughout my rap career. As my close friends always knew, and as my patna louis logic loved to "secretly" tell everyone (haha...) I was fortunate enough to have a successful acting career growing up. It's how I was exposed to all the arts, including hip-hop, and how I became comfortable enough on stage to eventually shed the skin of a scripted character and just be me: J.J. the DJ, producer and MC. So I thought, what better time to share my past with all of you guys than right now while we're trying to get to know each other better?
