As the fiftieth feature on the Fresh Dose. blog, we are introducing the ever so talented Jessiqa Jones.
Each week Fresh Dose. will be featuring a new artist from our playlist on our blog to highlight great independent talent.
We asked Jessiqa Jones five questions to help us understand a little more about her song titled Rehab?.
1: Choose 3 words that best describe you as an artist?
- confused
-and
-hormonal
2. What was the story or inspiration for writing this record?
Well, I started writing “REHAB?” with the thought process of just wanting someone to come into my life that was just such a genuinely, good human, that it might feel like a detox and refreshment from what I was seeing... but the more writing I did with my producer it felt more like I needed to just cut the bad out TO let the good in.
3: Shout out section - who’s your favourite independent artist we should listen out for?
Ooooo so, so, many but I’d probably pick Evann Mcintosh and Dijon right now… have brought me so much inspiration lately , absolutely the coolest.
4: What’s your other favourite record on this week's top 20? Why?
Hmmmm y’all picked some cool as hell artists, thought they were all amazing genuinely! “Price You Pay” by Tia Gordon was just so pretty AHHH voice is straight butter!
5. Our sister organization @hyper_tribe is all about creating the next generation of artists, what piece of advice would you give to them that helped you the most in your music career?
I’m not sure if I’d be the best to really answer this question, I don’t really feel like I’ve made it to a spot to give great advice… I will say, you might have a lot of pressure on you from a lot of different people or maybe just subconsciously from yourself… best thing to learn is just do it for YOU, I promise fulfillment comes from within rather than external voices and praise. I think that counts for more than just artistry, but I think its important to not let anything change your point of view or what makes you genuinely happy!
