Van Buren, Arkansas May 14, 2021 (Issuewire.com) - Local rapper, Jason Scott who goes by the stage name King Jase, went viral all over the world after releasing his debut single "Isolate" and gets a gold plaque for his second single "Safehouse". Hailing from Van Buren, which has a population two times smaller than his fans, King Jase acquired out of state listeners and followers on social media through his use of words and beat selection, before he was even heard in his home state, and is now opening up to his home state to be recognized.
"Nothing is a for sure thing, and I didn't want to count my blessings before being blessed, ya know? I guess when somebody such as myself, comes from a small town with the biggest hopes and dreams, the limelight really does seem way far out of reach, this remaining a dream. I had that dream. I had that vision. I really just stopped caring about what people thought of me, and how they would perceive me if I were to get on a track and spit some otherworldly bars."
"Nobody knows this really, but I have been making music for 11 years this year. I was 15 when I began, and OH MY GOD, I do understand why I received the shi*** comments and negative feedback I received; I didn't put anything into them except something I call 'money words', or, lyrics that make no sense about really, anything, haha. It took taking a 10-year break, losing almost everybody in my life, and meeting death to get it right. I finally did though, and I know my Mom would be proud if she were alive, and still with me here."
Jason Scott, aka King Jase, hasn't been on the rap/ hip hop scene actively until recently when one single night changed his perspective and opened up his creativity. "It's hard to explain the experience; Although frightening, it was something I needed. It's what made me who I am today," said King Jase when asked how he felt the night of his overdose that ultimately led to his success. When interviewed, King Jase gave quite some insight and background of his life.
Hailing from a small town in western Arkansas, King Jase among his peers proudly represents their small southern state and embraces it as home.
"Just the state in itself has a horrible reputation, not to mention being known for all the incest, and I really would just like to shine a light on the whole state and give people all over a person, much more realistic view of the state, because TRUST ME, that s*** doesn't go on here where I am at least. I've been here most of my life, only living in one other state and I've never known of that s*** happening here. Arkansas is just as gritty as the next, especially around Little Rock, and DEFINITELY Pine Bluff."
"For somebody such as myself to commit me to this has definitely been a journey I will NEVER forget. I'm the first person in my region of the state to be put on like this. My intent with my music went further and reached out to more people than I meant in the beginning; When I saw the hustle in it and my talent, I knew this would become my career. Hell, I have personal phone numbers for Caskey and Lil Durk. It's really a dream come true. I mean, this WAS the 'last resort', and after this, who knows what would've happened?"
"I've really been through some s***, and I have plenty of insight into today's modern problems teens and young adults face, as well as empathy for them. I'm here to win, and I'm doing just that exact thing. I'm going to keep doing whatever it takes, and I won't slow down. I know if I don't stay humble, God will take this from me."
With King Jase averaging 30+ hours per week in his home studio, he has been improving and perfecting his own style, while still producing his own beats, and mastering his own tracks, King Jase is now on the Billboard Top 200 and has a global ranking as a rap artist of 163 as of the date this was written. Now, that's impressive.
Not only is that impressive, but King Jase has also made some of the best music of his specific genre TO-DATE, even coming up with a personal genre he calls 'Trip Hop', which is a mixture of Rap, Hip Hop, and Trap sounds all compiled to one.
At the age of 26, King Jase is beginning to take over the entire southwest, being played most in Alabama. Still an independent artist, for now, there is serious potential in King Jase, as well as talent; He's making sure to use it to the fullest extent he can.
What do we have to say about King Jase? Exactly this:
King Jase is probably the HOTTEST rap artist coming from the south right now that's unsigned and we see him being on top charts all over in the years to come. King Jase, cheers to you. Keep it up!
