UK rapper J the A is making waves following the release of his banger “About the Price”

What started as just a hobby for music for one Manchester-based rapper, J the A, quickly morphed into an unbridled obsession for the art, seeing him delve deep into music creation, a decision that has been vindicated massively. It did not take long for rap music aficionados to warm up to him, recognizing his rare lyrical gifts as well as his magnetic stage presence. Inspired by Manchester-based rap icon Aitch, J the A wants to follow in his footsteps while establishing his own reputation. If he inspires another generation before him, the better. When it comes to J the A’s rap music, it is a scintillating blend of the signature UK drill, trap, and rap, with a focus on his pen game and delivery. Whether he is just freestyling over the beat or delving deep into his inspirations to create something authentic, he always brings his A-game.

When you actually listen to J the A, you begin to understand why he has amassed over 750K streams across various platforms and has over 7K Spotify monthly listeners. He brings something different to the rap table; – a case example is his latest jam “About the Price!”

An epic banger from the start to the end, “About the Price” will definitely leave you better than it found you. I always like the minute details in music because they contribute to the likeability of a song. From the onset, you can already feel the inviting feel of this jam as the female vocal chops create an arresting feeling and set the tone for the song.

Once the tone is sufficiently set, J the A makes an entrance, laying the foundation with that captivating chorus that he delivers in a brilliantly rhyme-schemed fashion, showcasing his unmatched pen game and aura at the same time.

The drill and trap-inspired beat is the accompaniment here, heavy in its 808s foundation and dripping bass, providing a steady backdrop for J the A’s lyrical prowess. All the while, the now toned down vocal chops supplement on the background, giving this jam a hedonistic feel.

In the verses, J the A seamlessly transitions from one verse to the next, capturing the essence of this jam with some heavy rhymes and masterful flows.

“About the Price” is all about the price you have to pay for success and the fruits that ensue thereafter that deserve to be celebrated in the most epic and memorable ways. As such, this jam serves as the perfect party banger to remind you to live life live and live it to the fullest…after all that hard work and sacrifice, you do deserve it, brother. And that’s coming from J the A who has worked his way up from the bottom!

Already with over 6k streams on Spotify alone, it is safe to say “About the Price” has already found a home in so many music fans’ playlists, and your playlist could be the next beneficiary of this masterpiece.
