Tune In As SimplyHitMakers Interview R&B Singer

Jamison

SHM: So tell everybody your name and what area you represent?

Jamison: My name is JAMISON aka JAM-IS-ON and I’m from Detroit, Mi

SHM: Ok, Ok How long have you been doing music and what made you get into music?

Jamison: I’ve been “doing” music for about 10-12yrs, I started off as a musician (a drummer to be exact) but what made me get into it was my parents they were both professional gospel singers and after a while being at all the rehearsals, soundchecks, and touring with them it just happened (from the musician stand point) now as an artist it’s just natural “some say your born to do what you do” and I believe them.

SHM: 10-12yrs that really shows dedication to your craft that’s defiantly what’s up…. So how would you describe your style and why?

Jamison: I would describe it as R&B, alternative, soul. The reason is I’m cultured rhythm & blues but because of my eclectic views in musicianship and writing styles drops the hint of alternative, and my voice or my vocal sound infuses the soul “I mean I was a gospel singer first”…. lol

SMH: HAHA yea your right about that…. Let me ask you though do you write your own music? If so what are your inspirations?

Jamison: Yes! of course it’s very hard for me as a “creator of art” not be committed to the full creative process which to me starts with writing. Now my inspirations are mainly my life personally “I’ve been hurt, tragically” and “I’ve been in some really high places” so my music reflects that, and I share that with my team so they can feed off of it during writing collaborations “so it’s all me”.

SHM: That’s good because there’s not to many singers out their writing there own stuff that’s why I had to ask…. Ok Jamison if you had the opportunity who would you want to collaborate with in the music industry and why?

Jamison: My first round pick would have to be Pharrell Williams, his ideas that come off the top of his head are ridiculous (pure genius) , next would be Dwele that soul sound influenced with my alternative ideas would be uncanny, and third would be Melonie Fiona because her sound and lyrics are those of true emotion and musical passion, and not just her single but her previous work and album presentation.

SHM: Pharrell Williams is defiantly a talented individual with all of the hits he has under his belt… So Where do you see yourself a year from now?

Jamison: Just at the start of my industry explosion, with a new deal for myself and an avenue to introduce the world to the driving force behind me “MY TEAM”/company otherwise known as TEAM J MUSIC GROUP

SHM: This is true teamwork makes the dream work…. Now let me ask you Jamison. What makes you stand out from other artist?

Jamison: My artistic authenticity my level of musicianship and my writing style or lyrical content, plus my team that require only the best quality from me or you will never here it (lol)

SHM: I hear that. So what are some of the challenges you encountered through out your career? How did you overcome them?

Jamison: Basically breaking in again as an R&B artist because the markets are over saturated with manufactured hits, formulas and gimmicks. So I overcame it by creating a sound that can’t be denied by any market and backing it all up with real artistry through content delivery, production, or clever arrangements.

SHM:You’re right it’s sad but true. So what are you working on now and when can fans expect to hear more from you?

Jamison: Now we are just coming off of the very successful “RYDA” campaign (Thank you so much for your involvement SHM) and we are gearing up for the widely anticipated second single “SLIDE NEXT TO ME” and my first EP titled “… I Feel” due out this season. Also we are currently developing my third mixtape titled “The R.E.A.L. Experience vol. 3″ [RE 3] so we are pretty busy these days …. lol

SHM: No Problem man keep the hits coming and we’ll keep Showcasing you on our site….But were defiantly going to need a copy of that mixtape because I already know its going to be fira. But anyway how can Industry Professionals and Fans get in contact with you in the future?
