We had the good fortune of connecting with J-HOT and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi J-HOT, what’s the end goal, career-wise?
The end goal is have such a cult following/fanbase that I can tour the world performing my music freely and live off of my art/what I love to do.

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
What I am most excited about in my career are all of the upcoming projects that I am gearing up to release. Because I have always treated music very on/off and I’ve procrastinated and held myself back a lot over the years. It hasn’t always been easy, but we have to remain focused and strong-minded to persevere. Along this journey I’ve learned to remain as consistent as possible, and to stay true to myself and my art. I would like the world to know that a misunderstood kid from Brooklyn has something to say, and it’s going to be loud.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
If a friend of mine was visiting NYC I’d take them to some of the best pizza places that the city has to offer like Prince Street Pizza, or Grimaldi’s. I’d also take them to Times Square so they can realize no real New Yorker spends time there for fun. Some of the most beautiful and exciting places to see around New York City are nowhere near the heart of Manhattan, it’s the low key/forgotten about places that are most interesting.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
I would love to throw a shoutout to my mother for always supporting and believing in me. As well as a shoutout to my son who is the most important person in the universe to me, he makes me want to be better everyday.
