I recently had an opportunity to sit down with E. Samson Jones; a singer and drummer from Rockland County. He placed third in the last “Own the Mic” Showcase. Despite not being present to see his performance live, I felt his energy through his vocals and he blew me away the minute I listened to his music.
With tracks like “Letter to You” and “Slide”, E. Samson brings back a feeling of nostalgia. He credits the inspiration behind his soulful music to legends like Ray Charles and James Brown. As someone who is instrumentally in tune with his craft, he can compose a song based on the beat or construct the beat around the song. As far as producers are concerned, he spoke very highly of Varsity Beats, and states that “They have something for everyone”. When questioned about what the future has in store, E. Samson anticipates expanding his fan base and would ultimately like to travel abroad to Japan. He also respects the vocals of Jasmine Sullivan and would love to work with her in the future. Regardless as to potential collaborations, I am here for E. Samson’s journey; his passion and work ethic speak for themselves
