JaeMyth

JaeMyth was born on the Westside of St Paul, Minnesota where he grew up having a love of playing sports and writing music. Much like any kid growing up in the late 80s early 90s he was expose to what would be known today as the “Golden Years” of Hip-Hop music. We all remember this era right? The MTV/VH1/BET days when those platforms would show music videos of all the hottest stars coming up and breaking into the mainstream. If you wanna talk the sports, let us say the Micheal Jordan era. Though he got a well rounded experience of different types of music, JaeMyth’s ear leaned more towards hip-hop where he would begin to find himself and his own voice writing music at the age of 8 years old with the assistance of a older cousin by the name of WestMo. His cousin WestMo would be the one to give JaeMyth his own entire foundational sound, recording countless songs on a rigged up studio setup with all the beats being made by his cousin on a program called Fruity loops. “Coming up when didn’t have a lot of money,” JaeMyth said when telling a story about how his cousin would make booths out of his closets and
hang the mic from a old chandelier fixtures in the house. “Recording like that you had to rap your whole song from top to bottom beginning to end, all in one take. We didn’t have the luxury to start and stop in the same place where we had made a mistake so when that happened, we would have to start all over from the very beginning,” said JaeMyth. From the ages of 8 to 18, he would then spend this time with his cousin developing his sound gaining strong lyrical rap skills to help strengthen his writing ability for music. In that 10 year time period JaeMyth would become an artist whose midwest sound would find a home with west coast beats and production due to his older cousins influence. Naturally, everything that came out of the west coast would catch JaeMyth’s ear with him being inspired by artists like; Ice Cube, Dr. Dre, Mac Dre, E-40, Snoop Dogg and the rest of the new comers that would come from the west coast in the later 2000s like Nipsey Hussle and Snow Tha Product. Getting comfortable with this type of sound and music would lead JaeMyth to find a new sound in east coast rap music and he would later be inspired by artists like; The Diplomats, Jay-Z, Fabolous, Bad Boy, Fat Joe, Big Pun, DMX and midwest giant Tech N9ne. It was at this time and age he would begin to perform at live hip-hop events, venues, clubs, local shows and begin touring the midwest with a group of friends from the years of 2006 to 2020 under the label and group name MajorFlow Ent, now solely owned and operated by JaeMyth. In
the year 2016 he would go on to meet the most important person in his career today while at a Snow Tha Product concert, Dj Pumba. Dj Pumba is the one who would help JaeMyth focus on a newer sound, one that wasn’t heard coming from JaeMyth before which would lead to their first song together “You Ain’t Used To” produced by Dj Pumba. This song dropping 2019 would later set the tone for them to create a EP called “CaliSota,” in-which all beats would be produced by Dj Pumba and all lyrics written by JaeMyth. This would also be the same year that after
touring so much he would set out to create his own clothing line “Original WestSide Kid Apparel” and clothing design company “Hygher Frequency.” “After all that touring and having no merch, I wasn’t going to go back out on tour again with out merch so I bought a heat press, a vinyl cutter and a laptop and got to it with no knowledge of clothing design at all,” he stated. In 2020 during the worldwide covid shutdown is when he would find a brotherhood and mentorship in one of Minnesotas most successfully known Djs, Dj D-Mil. D-Mill’s mentorship and business savy guidance is what would lead to JaeMyth becoming the next big DJ/ Artist coming out of the midwest. D-Mill would the one to begin showing him how to gain DJ equipment, book gigs, obtain weekly residencies in clubs, bars, venues etc. “I shadowed D-Mill for a year just watching him and helping out every single time we had an event. I really had to earn my way with my mentor and show I was trustworthy, nothing was just given to me,” JaeMyth had said, who knew D-Mill from performing at big shows on the local scenes as well as going to D-Mills events so naturally they connected. Now just 3 years into his Dj career, JaeMyth is still creating, writing, and releasing music like his most recent hit produced by Dj Pumba titled “On Tonight,” a newly flipped song originating from Montell
Jordans’ “Get It On Tonight,” is when JaeMyth decided he was going to be the Dj and the Rap Artist of his career and fuse both roles together. This is when he would meet and obtain another mentor from Boston by the name Mr. Peter Parker, a strong minded radio and music business genius who would be the one to push and challenge JaeMyth so he could have a solid music career going forwards. “These three have become a vital part to the ways I’ve been moving in this present time with my career. The knowledge I gain from these three alone changes my career for the positive and gives me great advantage,” says JaeMyth. From the moment we sat down to talk I know that JaeMyth was going to be a story to tell and a force coming out of the midwest like no other so tap in and check him out! - hiphopsince1987.com
