“There’s a magic to New Jack Swing that I feel has been slept on. While many genres have been reinvented in Electronic Music, this one hasn’t had its moment in the spotlight. ‘New Jack House Vol. 1’ is my way of bringing these classics back into the conversation—nostalgic yet redefined for today’s audience.”
