Today, Hip Hop is an overcrowded, saturated musical genre that is riddled with sub genres; club hits and gangster rap, backpackers and true school heads. Amongst them all stands Justis; also known as Justin Vail; fresh off the international release and success of his first single ´Jazz Music EP´ (Do Right DR023), the 24 year old hailing from Kitchener-Waterloo, Canada drops his debut solo project entitled ´Just Is´. This album sheds the skin of everyday gimmicks, and avoids being pigeon holed by typical overdone formats. It´s the modern hip hop music for people who dance, listen, love and live. Through out the album, Justis maintains a sincere demeanor as he takes you though his day to day life. Seamlessly, his raps weave well thought patterns over hard hitting instrumentals as he reveals himself to the listener. Expressing concerns, triumphs, stresses and joys, Justis speaks to listeners as equals. On songs such as "Get It Right" and "Down" his earnest swagger and playfulness with words travels over his own brand of bouncy, jazz based production, that will make even the most judgmental of hip hop purest pull a neck muscle.
