Jair Dynast 'V.I.A.L.E.N.C.E.' album

Immersed in the culture of hip-hop since early childhood, Jair Dynast (pronounced Jah-air Die-nast), "One whom God Enlightened, Ruler of a Dynasty", never knew he had found his life's passion. After being forced to give up his athletic scholarship at South Plains College in Texas due to an unforeseen heart condition, Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy, fate guided the standout point guard into the depths of politically driven street scripture.

His forthcoming solo debut album, V.I.A.L.E.N.C.E. showcases the prolific street poet’s penchant for exploring "real life issues" with raw uncut passion through thought provoking metaphors and similes. Throughout the album, Jair delves into social commentary with emotionally driven narratives befitting the early days of our culture, overshadowed only by his epic hard hitting beats. He combines an inner city upbringing with his Caribbean heritage and category defying production.
Building on the success of his debut single, which peaked at #4 on the underground Top 30 radio charts, Jair was given an opportunity to introduce "Vicious" and "Pull Up" from his soon to be released album at CMJ Music Marathon Showcase in NYC. Performing in September 2005 at the Bowery Poetry Club in Manhattan to a sizeable crowd, he was very well received. Jair Dynast's new singles, "Vicious" and "Pull Up" are the setup joints for the album, V.I.A.L.E.N.C.E. that is scheduled for release on September 26, 2006.
V.I.A.L.E.N.C.E. is an acronym that stands for Vicious Ignorance Amounts to Little Except Negative Consequences N’ Expression. The album is chock full with 18 sonic gems ranging from introspective narratives, to head nodding concept tracks, to club banger lyrical exposés. V.I.A.L.E.N.C.E. is an eclectic blend of hip-hop sub-genres and Jair’s varying deliveries that will prove to be a breath of fresh air for hip-hop while tackling the issues of poverty and violence, among others, affecting our inner cities.
One song, “Can’t Wait” from the V.I.A.L.E.N.C.E. album has already made an impact, becoming the theme song for a new 13-part T.V. mini-series, “Make Some Noise”, currently broadcasting on the C.B.C. Television Network. The track addresses the apathy that most young people have towards voting. Jair uses his gritty, metaphor-laden delivery to inspire his community to be educated about politics and get involved in the voting process.

On “The INtro”, Jair cleverly illustrates his tremendous writing talents, along with his “switch blade flow” using words beginning with “IN” to introduce his audience to his art. The narratives “Change” and “Profiling”, give us an in-depth look at his life growing up in the inner city, while the concept track “My People” finds Jair Dynast tracing his bloodline from the west coast of Africa to present day. “Vicious”, “Spread Love” and “GoRiLLa War” explore some of the darker aspects of society while “Converse” and “Keeps Callin’” discuss personal love and loss.

Lyrically, Jair Dynast takes us back to the days when hip-hop was pure while sonically moving the culture forward with his innovative approach to production.
One phrase best describes the album V.I.A.L.E.N.C.E. – “it’s poetic commentary on life”.
