SOUND JUST GOT REAL WITH JAY RELL
Interview with Jay Rell Italicized below.
Birth name? What is your artist name? What is the meaning? Where were you born and raised?
My name is Joshua Smith; my stage name is Jay Rell. I don’t no fancy meaning or anything my first name Josh, so I took the J out of Josh and the R out of my middle name which is Terrell. I was born in Raleigh, NC raised in the Sampson (Turkey) and Duplin County (Warsaw) area, 9dime Baby!. What are considered a few successes in your career? And where do you expect to go in the next 5 to 10 years in your career?
Recently my crew (F.A.M.M) and I competed in this celebrity status competition for 2hotradio.com, as one of the Reps from NC, to compete for a very lucrative prize that could give our crews a boost, I also competed in my school’s “Viking got talent showcase” unfortunately I didn’t move on to the next round of the competition, But it was real good exposure. And I recently graduated from ECSU with a Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration. That’s a major accomplishment for me because I feel like the education is going to help me in the long run. 5 to 10 years from now I expect to be a Business mogul not just music, music is just the start, I could see could myself conquering the Big Screen also
How is life currently compared to when you were growing up?
Lol “life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you’ll get” as Forrest Gump would say but for real life is a beautiful thing, I’m enjoying the experience. It’s a little harder now in the real world, back in the days momma took care of everything.
When it comes to creating, what exactly is the “method” to your madness?
I like to be by myself most of the time, just me and the beat. I try to become one with the beat and just write what’s on my mind. But sometimes me and the crew be in the lab bouncing ideas off each other. When I’m making a beat it’s the same way, I can think Cleary when I’m in my on space.

Rap and Hip hop and, but to take it a little farther I would say I make eccentric trap music, but I don’t like to be boxed in because I love music, enjoy making it and willing to try new things, to make the culture better and push it farther.
In the song “Let it Go” what exactly is the message? By the way the song is great

Thank you I’m glad you enjoy it! S/O to Dre Anderson of Eazy beats. The overall message of the song is for people to be real, keep it straight don’t claim a life you don’t live.
How do you feel about the 910 rap game? And what is the standard you set yourself and others to/any advice?
I think the whole NC music scene is dope; there are a lot of talented artists from rap to R&B special S/O to my crew F.A.M.M, my homies FAN Gang who are making some major moves, DSK, and young Saint. That’s just a few I named, but I truly believe Carolina is next, J. Cole was the beginning! Advice I would give other artist is live your dream and perfect your craft. What inspired you to make “November 27th freestyle

I did Nov. 27th for my birthday, I had just turned 22 and wanted to drop a freestyle celebrating my birthday.Who are the artists that inspired you coming up?
For real For real a lot of Rap/Hip Hop artist would say Biggie and 2Pac but for me when I was growing up I seen Bow Wow and Romeo killing the game at a young age. I knew since then I wanted to make music and perform. I also was a Big fan of Mase and Ludacris.What are your views on life success and happiness?
Having lots of money and women (Laughs) just kidding but that would be nice.

Success and Happiness come from the inside you being happy and satisfied with yourself and being able to spend time with love ones and people you care about. To me that’s true success and happiness.
