You all should know by now that I'm going to keep it as real as possible. Yes, social media is meant to be… social, for a lack of better words, however, at what point did common sense and morality become traded for the likes and views? I'm above no man or woman, but someone's got to keep it on the up and up. FOLLOW ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA:https://linktr.ee/jvlilINSTAGRAM: _jvlil TIKTOK: jvy__TWITTER: _jvlilSNAPCHAT: jalil_karim

adjective: inevitable1. certain to happen; unavoidable."war was inevitable"


noun: inevitable2. a situation that is unavoidable."by the morning he had accepted the inevitable"

I've always felt, in the slightest ways, that everything that I've done creative wise was inevitable; more of God's plan instead of mine 100%. If you know the story of how this entity started, the DEEPER story, then you'll understand why I feel so deeply about this. The same sentiment with drumming, from damn near out of the womb and to go on for the last 27 years and beyond. Inspired by @realcoleworld , molded by the most high and guarded by my angels. This is for the dreamers, on the days where we feel at our worst but progressing to our best.

a matter or situation regarded as unwelcome or harmful and needing to be dealt with and overcome."they have financial problems"

The thing with growth is this- it's difficult. Would we want it to be easy? 100%. But, there are times where we make it difficult, due to unrealistic expectations & timelines, or rather, losing ourselves. Just take a listen. It's a short rant, but nonetheless, I might be the problem. (This is not a moment of bringing myself down at all; just clarifying). No Music, No Intros; just a voice.

Okay, don't be alarmed- The JVY Podcast isn't going anywhere! Think of this as an… extension of what I do, mainly with more music and story telling. Do I have a name for the show yet? Maybe

Welcome back, everyone! So, we're staring this season off a little differently than before.

Sometimes, we put others before ourselves; whether accidentally, maybe purposely & more than often, it's unbeknownst to us. We can ask what they'd like or what they'd want.

With the recent events of Abortion being banned in multiple states, as well as Kendrick Lamar dropping his single “The Heart Part 5” earlier this week, I wanted to dive into a very important point: those who UNDERSTAND & get it, get it.

Welcome back to The Creator Series, where I'll be talking to different creators about what their process is like, what it means for them to be artists & touch on a few things that the general public wouldn't know about the creative world. This week, I'm bringing y'all Part 3, with an upcoming artist & new friend, the talented Tre. Charles. Tre. Charles is a singer-songwriter who dives into the depths of his soul to try to bring you into his world with an expressive blend of warm and soulful undertones. Growing up along the East Coast – from Upstate New York to Birmingham, AL – Tre. Charles has been exposed to a myriad of different cultures. It is from these experiences that he has cultivated a sound which pays homage to his nomadic upbringing. With hints of avant-garde R&B, modern/indie rock, and southern soul, Charles' relaxing & elegant music has a lot of people listening. From being featured on regional programs such as QC Life (WBTV) and My Carolinas (WCNC) to headlining Brothers Brewing Coffee festival in Northern VA, to gracing the stages of the international conglomerate of CreativeMornings in multiple states, all these accomplishments are coming before his debut single/ music video release (Stressin.). (Stressin.), released in late April 2021, received stellar reviews all through the east coast. This all is just the beginning to this young artist journey.

Welcome to The Creator Series , Part 1, where I'll be talking to different creators about what their process is like, what it means for them to be artists & touch on a few things that the general public wouldn't know about the creative world. This week, we kick it off with one of my favorite YouTubers/Creators, my little brother, Mr. Nigel Baker. “Yoo wassgood, I'm Nigel , The most UNDERRATED YouTuber on the platform! Also your YOUTUBERS favorite YOUTUBER. But all in all I'm just a creator that expresses himself through video. You can find me @ Nigel Baker on YouTube. I'm definitely one of the goats when it comes to video creating, storytelling and videography. I appreciate my big bro who is also dominating his craft , for sharing his platform with me. I hope you guys enjoy this episode!” @bxsednigel - IG @Nigel Baker on Facebook @Nigel Baker on YOUTUBE AS ALWAYS, make sure to follow/subscribe/like, anything & everything, and follow me on ALL of my social media's (IG & Twitter @_jvlil, TikTok @jvy__ & Snapchat @jalil_karim, and check out the Linktree, https://linktr.ee/jvlil, to check out everything I have going on! #YeetYeet #BlackLivesMatter --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

I decided to use this episode as not a reflective one, but one of thanks. Besides my family, close friends & loved ones, I wanted to thank all of you, the audience, for listening to my stories and growing with me. With that being said, I've included not only a few songs/beats that I've put out, but also introduced a new segment called “The Poetry Hour”, where I'll share original poems & ideas throughout my years, as a gift from me to y'all.
