Twist Online : How you entered into Music Industry? Is there any story behind?
J-Mar :  How I entered the music industry was something simple .. I’ve loved rap every since the 90s when my dad used to let me listen to nwa and I’ve always loved rap music then so it was easy knowing what I wanted to do with my life. Even though back then I never pursued it like now but I always knew in my mind I wanted to a rapper or something in the music industry because I have a great story to tell and that’s how all my music comes out with passion because it’s heart felt. My dad and uncle were my inspiration I would say simply because they rapped and I would hear stories of how good they were from them or even,other people so I from that moment on I knew I wanted to pursue the same dream they tried to pursue at one point …

Twist Online : We came to know you have been writing poetry since childhood. Is it true?
J-Mar :  I wouldn’t say poetry because I def1tnely would be lying if I said that … But I would scribble lines as if I was writing a rap because I would see it on t.v. or hear other rappers talking about how they jot on a pen and pad so I did it myself .. Except I wasn’t writing anything it was all scribble as if I was writing something.

I have a love and a passion for it. Not just to make songs to make dollars. I make everything that comes from the heart and everything real that everybody whether you’re black, white, blue, purple or yellow can relate to ..
