From Hip-Hop To Blues

In the heart of Calgary, Canada, a bluesy R&B artist has been getting ready for a comeback after a two-year hiatus. Debuting his new single, Uncle Jake reveals his inner thoughts and feelings with “F***** Up.”

 

 

Under the guidance of his own label and audio engineering company, Funky Productionz, Uncle Jake has been crafting a musical journey that bends genres and embraces the raw essence of life’s experiences. Jake describes the “Funky” moniker as a motto to express his craft with, detailing further that “Whatever emotion is portrayed through my music, the beat will always remain funky.” His music doesn’t shy away from exploring the many sides of human emotion, touching on subjects that some artists may find triggering. From producing and writing, to mixing and mastering, every element of his tracks is an authentic representation of his through music and life.

Expressing Himself

“F***** Up“, is a moody and intimate R&B and blues masterpiece that showcases his ability to confront his personal demons. The song emerges from a place of heartbreak and self-awareness, yet also enlightenment. As the young singer/songwriter relinquishes his feelings into the track itself, providing an interesting outlook on life whilst keeping himself vulnerable throughout.

Previously releasing only hip-hop music, this song acts as an entrance into the R&B world. The track depicts itself as a declaration of personal growth and a testament to the strength of character that Uncle Jake lives for. Besides the introspective lyricism, Jake invites the audience through his music to self-reflect on themselves as well, discussing his situations and discovering accountability within his actions.

 

The song’s production values, overseen by Uncle Jake, reflect his dedication to crafting music that is both authentic and captivating. But Uncle Jake doesn’t just stop at creating soul-stirring music; he works at showcasing his artistry in every aspect of his life. Undoubtedly understanding that making mistakes is a fundamental part of a life experience. Rather than shying away from his flaws, he owns them, embraces them, and uses them as stepping stones toward personal growth and self-improvement.

The Revival Of Uncle Jake

With a new artistic direction, “F***** Up” is just one example of his willingness to explore the tribulations of his own life, and in doing so, he provides a soundtrack for those who are also on a path of healing. And as he continues to evolve as an artist, we can only anticipate more soulful music from Uncle Jake.
