Jai Winter Shows Serious Vulnerability In “WAVES”
Jerrell Taylor, known as Jai Winter, emerges as the latest rapper hailing from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, carrying a chip on his shoulder, a hunger in his belly, and a wealth of skills. Notably, he focuses on crafting meaningful verses, with storytelling as his primary superpower. If you’re looking to acquaint yourself with his music and have limited time to spare, I recommend checking out his tracks “BARSTOOL,” “ISOLATED,” and “NEVER NEEDED.” Jai’s most recent single, “WAVES,” is as impressive as the aforementioned ones.
In “WAVES,” Jai Winter denounces fake friendships, expresses his discontent with contemporary music, and highlights his hustling skills. He also touches on his city, portraying it as a place that “never shows love” and requires individuals to bring out their most militant selves. Despite these challenges, his faith in GOD gives him confidence that he will see another day.
The emotional production, combined with Jai Winter’s cold tone and dynamic flow, creates a masterful sound. His decision to lighten things up towards the end with a heartfelt vocal performance adds depth to the track. What stands out to me the most is his straightforward approach. Jai avoids catchy bars or super clever punchlines and delivers straight-up bars that are easy for ears and souls to absorb.
The young bulls in Philly can rap their asses off!
