I have made my goal and then some because of you and I am eternally grateful to you all! To be supported in this way means so much to me as a person and an independent artist. I could not have done it without you and I will not let you down!

The work has now just begun. I will begin constructing your prize packages and working with the director Melinda James to film both videos! Hopefully, I will be releasing a video at the top of the year! By the end of March/beginning of April your prizes should be in your hands and the party will come soon after that!

So, look out for more messages from me to get your mailing and size info and to get an invitation to the party! Woohoo!

Thanks again!

I wanted to drop a little video goodie for ya’ll!  It’s me in my beautiful city( San Francisco)! The wonderful owner of Marcus Books was gracious enough to let us film there, support your local bookstore and read a book!

Th.Sept.22
Selector: FUTURE PERFEKT 8.oo
Making their Jup debut, Future Perfekt revolves primarily around the electronic-soul-rock beats and lyrics of frontman J3TMAN, a veteran drummer who has toured internationally with local hip hop legends Zion I and several other groups. Some tunes he actually sings on, while for other tunes he brings in another Bay Area veteran, SiairaShawn. The project also utilizes other all-star elements in the mix, such as keyboards and DJ.
