Check out young producer, hip hop artist, and songwriter JACKZ!!
Jelani Olushola Bodden was born in Brooklyn February 8th 1993 and raised in
Queens New York. At age 5 he discovered his love for writing, by writing
poems and stories. At age 11 he wrote his first song and at age 13 he
recorded his first track, from then on his dream to pursue music was born.
Jackz was raised on all types of music growing up, including mostly R&B,
Salsa, Soul, and Hip Hop. His mother loved to listen to Prince, Stevie
Wonder, Take 6, and Jill Scott, and so did Jackz. He loved the art of
producing, rapping, and song writing, and with so much talent he decided to
pursue it all. CHECK HIM OUT PLAYING YOUNG JOEL ORTEZ "CALL ME"
Jackz doesn’t know his father, he ran out on him and his mother before he
was born because he didn’t want Jackz to be born, Jackz sometimes reflects
on it, but doesn’t like to talk about it because it was a dramatic
situation, His father contemplated about taking it in his own hands. So
because he never met his father and never had a chance to speak to him,
Jackz knows little about his Puerto Rican side unlike his mother's Honduran
roots.
His mother is very supportive but at a young age for Jackz worked a lot and
wasn’t home too much. His half sister Shani was the closest person to him
but she was sent off to boarding school in 9th grade then went off to
college, so she wasn’t home a lot. In the end Jackz best friend was music,
it was like an escape from his life, his hood, and his problems.
So the young producer, hip hop artist, and songwriter, has released his
debut album which is entitled “Above Sound”. Jackz’s Above Sound represents
Jackz as a person. Diverse, creative, a little bit of everything, from party
to love and deep thought. The one thing Jackz always hears is “You’re doing
too much” and the only reply is “I’m just Above Sound”. The one way to
describe Jackz music is that it’s as real as it gets, or in better words,
soul fulfilling.
And it doesn’t end at just music; Jackz has appeared in acting roles such as
recording artist Joell Ortiz’s music video “Call Me” starring as young Joell
Ortiz, which wasn’t just a small part, but a major part of the music video
itself. Jackz has a strong heart, a wise head, & determination to do
anything he puts his mind too.
*What is Above Sound?*
Stemmed from unique musical styles, Above Sound is a representation of an
unordinary. Going beyond the basic, typical sound of hip-hop, Above Sound
breaks expectations. Created in 2008, Jelani Bodden aka Jackz, wanted to
take his image to the next level. Through Above Sound, Jackz is able to
connect to an audience that is young, hip, excited and extremely versatile.
To break it down, Above Sound: Bringing a new sound- Above the rest. Beyond
just a label & an album, Above Sound is a movement.
Some of Jackz’s most recent press appearances have included a featured
artist slot on a local television show in New York called Video City (
www.videocity.tv), and a number of radio & internet radio station
interviews. He has produced for a few independent singers & rappers, &
worked on developing his own artist as well.
The one thing everybody who comes into working with Jackz says about him is
that his work ethic & his passion for music is stronger than anything they
have ever seen before. His style appeals to both the ladies & the men. His
flow & delivery is one that is unique and compared to none. His lyrics are
not that of word play or extreme punch lines but that of truth and flavor.
His beats have their own signature style, and his hunger is starving more
than anybody you can think of. There is only room to grow stronger, which is
why Jackz is the future of music.

New Orleans Saints badass Darren Sharper hit Mr. Chow for dinner last night -- but everyone seems to be more interested in the hot little dish he brought to the restaurant.
Turns out, Darren shared some noodles with renowned video vixen Dollicia Bryan -- the woman who was rumored to have previously hooked up with Sharper's teammate, Reggie Bush.
During the encounter last night, Sharper had nothing but nice things to say about Reggie -- before driving off with Dollicia.
Sources close to Reggie tell TMZ, Bush never hooked up with Dollicia -- and the whole thing was just a bad rumor.
