I love Hip-hop. I have since I was a young boy wounded by the shrapnel of a long and bitter war waged between two parents who, like many of us have at times, struggled to see the full impact of their story arc on some of the people around them.

The internet is saturated with struggling artists. What sets some of them apart is what they are struggling for...

Rocky Valley is one of the most prolific artists in the independent CHH scene. With two full length releases under his belt already this year (WAR ROOM CONNECT: Fight Season with eCsiLe & Chsn Will & Chronicles From The Curb with Zak1) the Pensylvania Emcee has already made an impact and he isn't done yet!

Please join us in OFFICIALLY welcoming ProphetiQ & Kidd Rose to the JAMZ Collective family. The duo will be helping to curate The JAMZ Collective Playlist on Spotify & helping to build the overall brand!

eCsiLe, Rocky Valley, & Chsn Will release new single entitled "Worthy" on New Years Day!
