J.Scott’s Story
Genre-defying J.Scott is an ever-evolving singer-songwriter derived from the slums of Jacksonville, FL. Born Javon Scott, the classically trained vocalist found his love for music at a young age through singing in church and classical choirs. In 2018 he released his debut EP "Call Me When You Get This" - a collection of Pop/R&B moods. As his voice pierces through a variety of textures, the singer meshes the influences of Kelis, Brandy, and Stevie Wonder to formulate old-school melodies over new school sounds. J.Scott's music is unfiltered and bold, giving listeners a sense of joy, unexplainable confidence, and the freedom to escape life's everyday troubles. As an openly gay black male, the vocalist acknowledges the obstacles that may be against him in the music industry. He encourages his supporters (aka the #ScottieHotties) to trust their gifts and work hard to fulfill their dreams because anything is possible.
J.Scott returned from a two year hiatus with a sultry single called ‘edibles.’ The track, released June 5, 2020, has garnered nearly 90k plays across all streaming platforms. ‘edibles’ was the lead single off J.Scott’s most recent EP, ‘adoration’ which dropped at the end of June that same year. The artist’s sophomore EP depicts a captivating narrative of queer, black romance. The project caught the attention of many publications, most notably PRIDE.com and EARMILK. Since its release, ‘adoration’ has amassed 200k streams across all streaming platforms. The up-and-coming Pop/R&B sensation is gearing up for a busy 2024, with his next EP set to be released this Spring.
