JAYFORCE

The majority of the guys on this cover I’ve played on my radio show at some point or another so I’m not entirely mad at the cover. Except for Diggy Simmon’s head placement. Pause. Kendrick Lamar, CyHi Da Prynce, Mac Miller, Meek Mill, Yelawolf, Big K.R.I.T., & Diggy Simmons have all seen airplay on my radio show because I’ve genuinely liked the music they put out. It appears the staff at XXL Magazine tried to showcase a new artist with buzz from every region & every particular style lane. Artists & fans upset about XXL magazine’s choices can take solace in the fact that being on XXL’s cover doesn’t automatically guarantee success for any relatively new artist. New artists that didn’t make the cover shouldn’t worry because being on the cover puts a huge amount of undue pressure on you to succeed. If you happen to be a new artist on the come up I’d just say stay focused on your craft. It’s a marathon & not a sprint in the music industry. Longevity baby….
