From rewriting his high-school band’s marching cadence to free-styling on the bus before basketball games to recording hits like Phil Collins in his college dorm room, JT always had at least one of his hands in music. “Music was never part of my plans,” he said in a late 2022 interview “I just met the right people when I left home and it just kind of happened. That’s how life works, things just fall in place like that.” Coming from what he describes as Nowhere, Missouri, the 22-year-old artist has a sound that can’t be pinpointed to any region. It’s been nearly a year since anybody has heard new music from London. Some of his closer supporters were able to hear new sounds from him during the 2 Daybreak sets he did this past summer, but there’s been no new official releases from him. When asked about his plans to release new music he replied “I stopped rushing & I’m done overthinking. I trust my feelings and when they tell me to drop again I will. It’s Y triple M for life though, (meaning Young Men Make Mistakes, the title of his first official mixtape) or at least until I’m old and get this shit right, but yea Y triple M 2 is next, I just don’t know when. Stay patient with me.”
I never planned on making music, let alone traveling and doing any type of shows. The idea was always in my head, and it sounded cool, but it just never felt like me and some days even now I still don’t know. Some of my best memories came from this shit though. Up in the dorms all night with Marcus & Channon eating half molded bread, then going out to the car to test the mixing while everyone is getting ready to go to class. Going to work with Nate from 4 - 10, clocking out, hitting the liquor store, then clocking right back in the studio. I wouldn’t change a single thing about how this story has gone so far. I really enjoy making music, sometimes I still struggle with confidence. Coming from where I’m from, nobody does / has done any of the things I’m doing, so this is new to me. Throughout this whole process I’ve been teaching myself that it’s possible to be successful with anything you want you just have to dream bigger. I’ve always been prone to overthinking since a kid, and you can hear that in the music sometimes, the doubt & the uncertainty, but again I would never change this. I haven’t dropped in a minute, but I plan to. I don’t know what it is that I’m waiting for, maybe it’s nothing, but I think I’ll know when I feel it. And when that happens be ready to add YMM2 to your playlist. We’ll speak soon, in the meantime stay prayed up.
Eternally,
