About Me
J'st BrynStandUpGuys LLC / Macc Mane Media went deep into the heart of St. Louis, into the
darkest hood and found its soul, and his name is J'st Bryn. Born Bryan
Barksdale, soul was embedded into him from his conception. As a youth,
he recognized his vocal talent singing at his church, West End Mount
Carmel Full Gospel Church, located on the west side of St. Louis. Later,
Bryan became a regular in talent shows and integral member of various
choirs, notably The Normandy High School Swing Choir, where he was
trained by the incomparable Joan Brown of East St. Louis.Bryan later joined a gospel rap group, Du Czon, and they created a nice
buzz throughout the Midwest. After four great years, the group decided
to venture off onto their own projects. It was then that Bryan realized
that now it's J'st Bryn. On the road to success he has joined with his cousin and long time friend to form
StandUpGuys LLC and one of the most talented up and coming
producers, Brad Young. Since then, the sky has been the limit.J'st Bryn has already given the world a sample of his pure vocals
through BET's 106 and Park Wild Out Wednesdays in May 2006. He has opened up
for John Legend, Little Webbie, Fat Joe, Chingy, The St. Lunatics, as

shined.J'st Bryn is not only a singer, he is a creative songwriter and great

and StandUpGuys LLC are currently teaming up with "The Camp"
, to bring you the soon to be platinum album, Hood Soul with the hot
new singles "Fantasy Girl" and "I need Luv," coupled with the already

and even the hardest of men would grab the finest thing in sight and
get their grind on? J'st Bryn has brought back the love to the club and
the soul to the hood. The appeal of J'st Bryn is his down to earth
reality. Many people compare him, many try to label him, others try to
change him, but all he can be is JST BRYN.To be continued...HOOD SOUL TV
