International Website Dagheisha.com has carefully reviewed the new album by J Swift. "The names cited in the biography probably would be enough to frame the style of J Swift. However, he takes great pride when he is often told about his blended rap mix of New York's Fabolous & American gangster T.I. Even so, it would be difficult if not impossible to give you a hint of his punctual rhymes and incisive verbs. This young rapper from Florida seems to possess the weapons to really break. 'Street Buzz' is a clear example to the rap community that a growing artist needs a buzz to make an impact. The neighborhood hot star controls many levels (persona, club, topics) & deserves recognition. Among the best pieces are My Swag, What It Do & What Can I Say. Also the duets with R&B crooner M.B. are superb (My Life, Slow Down, Gotta Make it). If you are tired of the usual hip hop acts & thickness of passing radio, I can only recommend listening to this sincere disc packed with substance. The Dirty South has found a new rebel brother who shall emerge very soon."

Bio
Raised in Tampa, Florida. J. Swift is a huge fan of lyricism & incorporates clever rhymes in his songs. Similar to the greats before him, you might not catch all of his unique wordplay with one listen. His goal is to tell short stories with stunning imagery & detail. J. Swift has always been a fan of East coast music, but puts a twist on it since he is from the South. When asked who his rap style is similar to; his answer is a mix of Fabolous (metaphors & punchlines) & T.I. (southern bred & dope boy swag). The rap game needs an intelligent artist who can appeal to the streets, the club scene, & still spit 16 bars of flame. He considers himself a true emcee having both star power & concept control. He will single handedly delete the connotation that southern rap is watered down. J. Swift feels he is better than a lot of new artists & is patiently waiting for his time to shine.
