Jay Pitts is a conscious Detroit-bread artist with a warm, energetic vibe. He mixes genres like Jazz, soul, and even some East Coast boom bap to add to his unique sound. Jay started his childhood on the West side of Detroit. Music was an early influence as he was introduced to Tony Braxton, India Arie, and Lauryn Hill by his mother. He was also introduced to Michael Jackson (his childhood favorite) and influences of Reggae and Soca from his Belizean father. "I remember rhyming words in school when learning to read and I was almost addicted to pairing words that rhymed. I fell in love with poems and would read kids poem books and write my own poems in early elementary. Today, my music continues to mature and expand. I'm all about creating and having fun while engaging my audience through my lyrics and rhymes."
