Tell everyone who you are and what you do. Hi I’m J.Cymone, singer, songwriter, producer, model, all around bomb ass person you should know!!

How did you get into making music?

Music has always been my passion. I started singing at a young age in my church choir, school chorus, wherever I could really. Growing up in the SF Bay Area exposed me to a multitude of genres and cultures that still influence me to this day. I remember going to a friend’s recording session and stepping in the booth, from then on, I just knew this was the path.

Who are some of your musical influences?

Jill Scott, Erykah Badu, Gwen Stefani, and Prince.

Let’s talk about “Imposter Syndrome” and the motivation behind it.

Imposter Syndrome is my baby. Prior to recording and releasing that I had been doing a lot of feature work and recording a lot of records that didn’t really reflect me as an artist. I felt super stuck creatively even though I was projecting so much confidence in my work. “Imposter Syndrome” was me working through that and stepping back into a place of authenticity. This was also the first body of work where I was in the driver’s seat and had total creative control. That being said I feel like listeners joining me at this stage in my journey can really meet me where I’m at authentically.

Where do you see yourself in three years?

Coming off of my first US tour, celebrating my first full-length album release.

If you could perform anywhere in the world, where would it be?

I’d love to perform on the water somewhere like Ibiza or Santorini.

How would you describe your style of music? I call it Future Soul.

What is one fun fact about yourself?

I’ve recently become obsessed with plants and I’m slowly turning my apartment into a jungle.

Are you working on any new projects or upcoming events?

I’ve got new music on the way, I just finished up a song featuring Rayven Justice that I’m really excited about! I’m looking forward to releasing a lot of new music this year!
