Roundup Russy's Artist Spotlight – Jay Electronica



Heres your introduction Courtesy of Hip Hop Official:


Today Dj Enuff, NYC’s Hot 97 DJ, hit the internet and posed a question to the blogosphere about why he’s not playing Jay on the air. It was a very interesting question and insight into the thoughts of a DJ. Is Hip Hop really dead? Why aren’t artists with lyricism being played on the radio?
Here’s what Enuff had to say:
I’m listening to Jay Electronica’s latest tune Exhibit C Produced by Just Blaze. It is so good. I think it’s lyrical and the production is solid. Reminds me of some early Nas stuff,Then I ask my self : Why is it not spinning on the radio? At least during my time slot? Is it because there’s no dance tied to it? Is it because it’s not yet on BET’s Top Ten Countdown? Does it have to be a Club Banger? The radio isn’t a club. So why not Good solid Hip Hop? I have it on my website. I battle myself all the time when it comes to the radio. The job I love so much. I could make it the Heavy Hitter Pick of the week with no problem. Then what? I need HELP with this one. Any Suggestions Re: Real Hip Hop is Fading –
Jay Electronica “Exhibit C”
