It Takes a Village

The saying, ”It takes a village to raise a child” gets it's inspiration from an ancient African proverb, meant to illustrate the beauty of community. For JayPluss and his new project, It Takes A Village, the phrase takes on a wider meaning.

Produced fully by SHARP., It Takes A Village is a distinct look into the mind of JayPluss. After years of toiling within the brewing Charlotte Hip-Hop scene, JayPluss, and SHARP. find themselves inspiring the mood, verve, and direction with a focused collection of songs that conveys JayPluss’ Queen City sensibilities.

While sparse on features, with Manhattan lyricist YL and Queens native DNFS lending their vocals, It Takes A Village stands as a direct line into the thoughts and life approach of JayPluss. With SHARP.’s soul-stirring sonics and JayPluss’ unwavering confidence, It Takes A Village proves that community and connection can inspire a divine meeting of minds.
