Check his video on his myspace he basically gives you the whole sitch on how it all went down. JR decided to have a meeting with the kid after he constantly sent JR 5 messages a day on myspace asking him to check his music out and to give him a chance....pretty cool how it all worked out for the dude...i wish him the best of luck.
One thing I disagree with though, is this here-say bullshit about how the kid is creating a new "genre" just because he sampled some Doo-Wop tracks and mixed it with his roots. It's not a new genre, it's just a mix of flavors like anything else. But the kid has talent for sure, he fruity, but he got talent.
