Jay Colin

As a young man he would listen to various music kinds. His mother schooled him with records such as MJ'S Bad,Lionel Ritchie, Diana Ross, Pia Sadora, Earth,wind and Fire and many more. His love to craft his own music started when he attended church with his mother and was totally enchanted by the man behind the keys. From that day on he pushed himself to learn how to play. Not long after that they discovered that he had an hidden talent. And that talent was not only rappin and singin over music but also creating it. To improve his skills he started to play in various bands and learned all about music in general. He wished not to be put in a box so he was egor to learn music from different origens such as Reggea,Rock, Funk etc etc. Because of that egorness he is now able to develope his own style.



At the age of 21 Jay Colin felt like he had to take it to the next step. He was already crafting his on beats at the time but was seeking for inspiration outside of the box. So he got in touch with a Production Team called "The Beatkidz". After hearing jay spit they immediatly jumped into the studio to work It wasnt long before he became a member of this team and started to buzz on the streets.



Egor to create his own album Jay was collaborating with mcee's and producers all over the Netherlands and got in touch with Dutchflower. Who produced his first album called Truth and Soul.
