Hip-hop has been improving for quite some time, and it’s steadily on an up-spiral. More artists are holding themselves accountable for what they have to say and offer, and they are consequently putting our more socially conscious music that not only feeds their fanbase in the streets, but also teaches the youth who are also listening closely.

Jair Dynast is definitely among the handful of newer artists that are out to gain something more than a pocket full of money and a few screaming fans. His debut, “V.I.A.L.E.N.C.E”, is sure to strike a chord with many hip-hop fans. Just release less than a month ago, he’s already impacting the lives of many who have had the chance to cop it.

His track “The Intro” caught me right from the start. Not your typical track, in this song, Jair utilizes words beginning with “IN” throughout the track as a way of bringing us all into his world of poetry. Like many others before him, he talks about the struggles that come along with growing up within the inner city on tracks like “Profiling” and “Change”, yet, he does it in a tactful way that isn’t so forced and overbearing. Much of the album has a strong educational factor, and you know that he’s not just coming off the top of his head, but really coming from his heart and giving us true accounts in his music.

Other gems throughout “V.I.A.L.E.N.C.E.” (which by the way, stands for “Viscious Ignorance Amounts to Little Except Negative Consequences N’ Expressions”) include “Spread Love”, “Vicious”, “Converse”, and “Can’t Wait”, which has become the theme song for “Make Some Noise”, a new mini-series airing on C.B.C. Television network.

Jair Dynast is well on his way to becoming one of hip-hop’s most prolific artists. The album is definitely worth checking out for any true hip-hop fan.
