Jared Evan – The Blanket Truth [Album Stream]

Jared Evan liberates his new LP “The Blanket Truth”. “The Blanket Truth I can confidently say is my most evolved body of work,” explains Jared. “My usual routines, go-to techniques and ways of creating were different on this album. The actual title came from one of my favorite movies, I Heart Huckabees. It implies that the universe is one big blanket, and that every particle, every piece, is interconnected. I took that concept and made it more personal to me and my perspective on why things happen the way they do. A lot of the themes throughout the records connect my current present self to my past self. The universe is ever-evolving, and there’s no telling how big the “blanket” could get.” Take a listen below.

JSWISS & Jared Evan – Glass Case [Audio]

Two of New York’s finest young talents, JSWISS and Jared Evan, connect on the soulful and meditative “Glass Case,” which is the second leak taken from Leedz Edutainment’s upcoming ‘Eastern Standard’ compilation. Where Philly native Mega Ran dropped his hard-nosed head-nodder, “The East Coast,” as the project’s inaugural single, JSWISS and Evan kick back and get introspective on “Glass Case.” Despite being so different topically, there’s a connection between the two cuts, which is the strong production of The Arcitype. For this track, The Arcitype supplies his collaborators with a melodic Boom bap canvas, which they definitely use to their advantage. JSWISS’ rhymes dive deep into the concept of being pigeonholed, both in art and in life, while Evan’s vocals evoke some emotional and inner turmoil. It’s a fresh turn for JSWISS especially, given that he just dropped a summer-ready new EP, No Music. Evan appears to be in the lab too, though, if his tweets are any indication. And if not, his fans have a lot to love on “Glass Case” (and here’s hoping he and JSWISS work together again!). “Glass Case” is now available for stream and download through all major digital retailers. Stay on the lookout for ‘Eastern Standard,’ which is due out soon via Leedz Edutainment!
