Jared Evan. Don’t forget that name. I came across the multi talented musician hailing from NYC a couple of weeks ago on DJBooth and instantly found myself replaying his free debut EP, The 4th Chapter. Jared is a very special artist because his style is so unique and fuses so many different genres. In his song “Traffic Light”, my personal favorite, he confidently opens up his rap verse by saying, “You say I’m rock but I’m not, I’m hip-hop but I’m pop, and all they label me as is a Kid Rock with a shot“, before diving further into how his style is often defined. If you’re wondering who’s singing and who’s rapping on each track, know that Jared is doing both. Beginning as a rapper, he decided he would prefer to fill the bridges with his own voice rather than finding someone who could deliver exactly what he was looking for on each track. Rapping, singing, drums, guitar, piano, self production, the list goes on for Jared.
While the EP has a little bit of everything to offer, the video above for “One Good Thing” epitomizes the beauty of music. This is one of the most powerful messages in the album and tells a lot about Jared as an artist and as a person. If you L-O-V-E this song and video, be sure to grab the entire FreEP below.

Jared Evan has always been interesting artist to me. He has never fit in any one genre and that is probably why I like him so much. His music ranges from Hip Hop, Pop, and Rock and yet always has a consistent feel to it. His latest single “Traffic Light” is no exception. The track will be featured on his upcoming EP that will be produced entirely by !LLMIND and Ill Factor dropping the 1st quarter of 2012.
