J THE MAN
I’m On Sixth
Album DescriptionI’m On Sixth can be described as the following: Greatness. The byproduct of genius, coupled with the relentless pursuit of perfection. A monument to the level of triumph gained through perseverance. Confidence emboldened by the power of truth. The intersection in time where the present state of rap meets the future state of J THE MAN.I’m On Sixth has no limitations. I’m On Sixth is not a rap album. I’m On Sixth is not a commodity to be consumed hastily and then discarded with contempt. I’m On Sixth is a
sound experience to be savored. I’m On Sixth is for the rap connoisseur with
discriminating tastes. J THE MAN presents I’m On Sixth for those with palettes that yearn for diversity. I’m On Sixth is for those longing for subject matter of a broad
spectrum. I’m On Sixth is for the brave, for those who seek only to be themselves. I’m On Sixth is for the whole person.I’m On Sixth is composed of twelve offerings, crafted to stand the test of time. As with all high quality purchases, the difference is in the details. The musical production is second to none. With selections like the soulful sounding ’Do My Thang’, dance inspired ’She Knows’, piano driven ’Test Me’, bounce powered ’Magic When I Rap’, the dramatic ’Get Somewhere’ and the strong guitar laced ‘I‘m On Top‘; it is clear that I’m On Sixth’s brilliance lies within the skilled workmanship of its craftsman. J THE MAN’s song writing ability and lyrical prowess is evident throughout. The opening lines from the second verse of ’Greatness’ sum up where J THE MAN is music wise:This race I’m running, I will never get tired./
Had two sticks, now the forest on fire/
If the game gotta flat, then I’m a spare tire/
I work for my self, I will never get fired/I’m On Sixth builds a solid bond with the listener, one that is based on respect and appreciation. A respect for what is present in the music, as well as an equal appreciation for that which has been left out. J THE MAN juggles truth and fantasy, while walking the tight rope of social relevance, a feat that few master.I’m On Sixth is a snapshot of life, framed in what is possible, and hung on the wall of faith, aside the mantle of self determination. J THE MAN paints his world with broad strokes of coolness, bright splashes of strength, and defined lines of purpose. I’m On Sixth is the definitive album for the life blood of Austin, Texas. I’m On Sixth is J THE MAN, and J THE MAN is the future.
