Jissai

I was raised in Manchester, NJ in a neighborhood called summit park ... I was raised in a key hole there were a few kids on my block my brother joseph we have different dad and then a few friends. My grandparents raised me I grew up doing family talent shows and giving speeches in front of big crowds so yeah, my family was very music oriented. the short time I experienced with my father I used to always watch him make beats and rap, my mother was the singer and she would model from time to time …Almost EVERYBODY in my family can sing! I knew I loved music when I was pretty young I would rap in front of a mirror trying to mimic my father. it wasn’t until I was in high school when I realized that I wanted to really rap ha-ha ... I went by the name of Tek I was 14 I started rapping from a little speech mic (idk what its called it was little though) but I used that too record with that it really didn’t sound bad to me at the time! . I remember trying so hard not to cuss living in my grandma house ...

By the age 16 I had moved with my mother to Longneck, De because I had become completely out of control as far as getting tied into the streets to my grandparent’s credit they did their job with raising me just made some choices she didn’t agree with and I had to live with …

Being with my mother was when I really started using Jissai as my stage name. now Jisaai came from me and my best friends Carlos and Keith.  At the time we... we wanted to be professional assassin BAD we were TRAINING and everything! Jissai means “a fact” (the truth) “a matter of fact”. its Japanese.

So from that point on I stopped using my actual name for awhile and started spittin some crazy lyrical freestyles before I started writing and expressing myself through a pen I was the youngin that would always kick rhymes (and Dunk on SOMEONE). After a while I basically was running down on with a camera a few times and gained some recognition off of a song I wrote to J Coles “too deep for the intro” I named it “Jissai And Now I Begin” on YouTube. People really started addressing me as Jissai then and then from there I played the reverb nation scene and did some features I have a pretty decent following of people spread out that show love so that’s encouraging in itself #PushForPower is a movement I’m promoting and Power I mean Push for PHYSICAL, MENTAL, and SPIRITUAL Power.
