The Ja¥en X District & Raw Rhythm Interview
By AJ - Host
Subhan returns with a very special edition of the show to help you wind down during this long weekend 😎
On this episode, I have the pleasure of chopping it up with a trio of Ottawa's most creative and unique artists; Raw Rhythm & Ja¥en X District !!
Raw Rhythm represents a new refreshing presence within the growing Ottawa music scene. He made his initial splash with his debut single "Burn Out" which got the attention of many people including ourselves. His sound is one centered on atmospheric production & tackling risqué subject matter. Watch the visuals for his debut single below:
The triumvirate sat down with me and had a really dope discussion about not only their artistry, but their upbringing as people and overall views on creativity. We discuss the impact of artists like Linkin Park & Omarion had in their musical upbringing. The enigmatic duo of Ja¥ & District reveal how music had always played a role in their household via communal karaoke, where as Raw's origins stem from his background in dance. From there we touch on their approaches to songwriting and the importance of vulnerability in establishing a genuine connection with the listeners.

While they all have different approaches to creation, the common thread of authenticity and engaging sonics is clear to see. We also talk about how they came to work together, the importance of imagery, the do's & don't of IG fit pics & much more ! Be sure to listen to the interview in it's entirety below as we also drop the exclusive premiere of the trio's upcoming collaborative effort "Siren" slated for release at the end of August 🙏🏽
