J Spitta Q&A
Hey guys! I've interviewed rapper J Spitta so you can get to know him a bit better! He is the CEO of 20 West Records. Born and raised in Atlanta Georgia, he considers himself the “new face” of the south. and a well rounded artist. His music is far from the norm. His flow is unique and he prides himself on being a lyricist. He just recorded his latest mixtape “No Doz N Weed Smoke” – He often hears that this body of work is reminiscent of OutKast, Field Mob, Big Krit and other artists who posses great content in their lyrics.

1. What made you want to follow music? Was it always the #1 thing you wanted to do for a living?
My brother sparked my early music interest he used to rap back in the day and it seemed so cool to me so i naturally picked it up. music wasn't always number one initially but as a got older and more serious it became my main priority and the thing i wanted to do for a living.

2. What song - out of the ones you already released/written - means the most to you? Why?
Thats very hard to choose from but if i had to take a guess i would say the record 'All I Ever Wanted' from my Going 4 Broke EP. it means the most to me because i was speaking about me just wanting to be heard in the music industry and how much work I've put in to make it..

3. Which artists influenced you the most to pursue a music career and to adopt this style of music?
My musical influences stem from an array of different artists such as OutKast, Ghetto Boys, Goodie Mob, Kilo, 8 Ball N MJG, Eminem, Jay Z, Nas, Tupac, The Clipse , 3 Six Mafia, Common, Twista, Canibus, Busta Rhymes, just to name a few.

5. With whom would you love to work with and why?
 Right off top i would love to work Andre 3000 of Outkast. why is because he played a big part in breaking the tone in southern hip hop and i look up to him as a brilliant story teller you can never put him in one box he is an amazing artist.

6. What has been the defining moment of your musical career so far?
The defining moment has to be when i met my biggest fan about three months ago when see saw me she was extremely happy i never seen anything like it before and it was a beautiful feeling so told me how influential my music was to her and how she looks forward to seeing how far i can go in the music industry.

7. What kind of message do you want people to take away from your music?
What i want people to take away from my music is that its cool to be yourself the flaws and all and it's definitely cool to be different and don't try to fit with the in crowd. set your own lane and learn what happiness is for self.

8. If you were given the chance to pick one artist to tour with which one would it be and why?
I would want to tour with Jay Z if i could just to see how he handles the stress of being away from home and yet still makes power moves. he is another artist i look up to and i'm sure he could give me a lot of game about the industry.
