J Aktive is a rising independent artist who is known for his unique style of music and ability to produce his own tracks.
His journey in the music industry began at a young age when he was introduced to music through his family. His mother would make him and his sisters sing in front of the church every Sunday, and his older brothers were full-time rappers who inspired him to pursue music as a career.
In the third grade, J Aktive learned how to play the saxophone, which taught him how to read and write music. By the time he was a preteen, he recorded his first song and continued to make music throughout his teenage years. At the age of 22, he moved to Downtown Los Angeles and created Aktivate Productions, where he directed and edited music videos for other artists to make a living.
After years of being behind the scenes in the music industry, J Aktive wanted to take his music career into his own hands. He saved up money and dedicated everything he had to become a full-time artist. In 2022, he dropped his first debut album Bad Luv with the leading single ‘Pist Off‘ going viral on social media getting reposted from celebrities such as Janet Jackson, Deion Sanders, Mario Lopez, Dougie Fresh, and many others alike.
Despite not having a record label backing him up, J Aktive’s debut album reached over 3 million streams across all streaming platforms. He executively produced all of his own music, came up with the topics, selected the beats, and worked closely with his engineer to fine-tune and enhance every aspect of the song to execute his original vision.
J Aktive’s independence in the music industry has allowed him to experiment with different styles of music and sounds without being confined to a label’s expectations. He has also been able to connect more intimately with his fans and build a loyal following through his transparency and authenticity.
J Aktive has many new singles coming out in 2023, and he plans to release 20 uniquely different new singles throughout the year. He wants to take the “Russ” approach and release a song once a week until he runs out of unreleased songs. He also has a major single coming out with a Platinum-selling artist this spring that he’s super excited about.
In conclusion, J Aktive’s road to independence in the music industry has been a long and challenging journey. He has faced many obstacles, but he has persevered and carved out a unique space for himself in the industry.
