Jotsone - Dear New England (Fuck You)
There’s no place like home. I feel safe in assuming we are all familiar with this saying and its connotation. Apparently Jotsone has his own take on the phrase. Once you listen to the track affectionately titled ” New England (Fuck You) ” it is crystal clear what that take is. Its definitely no secret that there is prevalent ” crabs in a barrel ” vibe in the RI / southern MA music scene. Although not the first to address this issue, Jots make dam sure he puts his 2 cents in.
If you’ve been keeping up with Jotsone’s more recent stuff, this is definitely a departure from that. This is straight Hip Hop, pure and simple. With a super smooth / funky instrumental provided By Josh G, it was pretty much Jots’ job not to fuck it up, and he didn’t. Jots is currently working on his album ” Nothing Good” tentatively slated for a summer/fall release.
Being a local artist myself i can feel where he’s comin from. Shit is real. Take a listen to see if you agree with his outlook on the current climate of our scene. Lets us know if you think this scathing critique is a spot on snapshot, or a jaded emcee’s empty rhetoric.
I almost forgot. I could be wrong, but after a few listens I think I noticed some subliminal (or not so) shots being fired at a fellow 401 emcee ???

This was emailed to me since I am not an admin on this site I couldn’t approve jotsone’s post, so I told him to send it to me. here we go:
Big City’s name is certainly appropriate for the Fall River-based emcee. I remember seeing him at the first show I ever did with him and thinking that he picked rappers like me out of his teeth on the daily. It took me at least 2 more shows just to work up the courage to say hello to the motherfucker, but I was quick to find that City is nothing if not a genuinely good guy. With a stage presence that can rival anyone jocking for position in this New England underground and rhymes that can hold their own against anyone you listen to, City has finally put it all together on his album, Everything I Do Is Badass, which will be out on Delusional Records very soon. City and I took a while to converse about it, amongst other things, recently.

The night started when me, Big City, Wigsplita all had to travel to do a radio show in Danbury, Ct. I didn’t anticipate the amount of traffic I was going to hit so we missed out on that. It was at this point I decided I was going to head over to the blackstone club to check out was I thought was to be a mess of a show. I was kinda wrong.
