New Orleans’ JayQ The Legend is one to watch this summer

With a rich musical history coursing through its veins, it’s little surprise that New Orleans is home to a vast array of extraordinarily talented artists. JayQ The Legend is no exception. A former US marine, JayQ knew from an early age that he was destined for a career in music. Building on this experience, JayQ has worked tirelessly over the years to hone his style, and as a result has developed a raw authenticity, laced with deep, sensual vocals that seldom disappoint.

Body Talk is the lead single from JayQ’s upcoming debut EP, JayQ 4U, which is due for release via BreakOut Music. The track also features an icon by way of Grammy award-winning producer, SOKO7 (Drunk In Love, Beyoncé feat. Jay-Z), with up-and-coming talent, OBA jumping on as co-producer.

Check it out below.

With a seamless blend of soul and rap, JayQ The Legend takes influence from icons such as Michael Jackson and Tupac. His talent for lyricism is apparent as he encapsulates the fly-on-the-wall-style realness you’d hear from a passionate argument between two lovers, both striving for mutual respect. Combining afrobeat with pop and R&B, Body Talk is ready to compete for the song of summer 2019.
