J.J. Sinatra

While his sound owes too much to golden age hip-hoppers 3rd Bass, when J.J. Sinatra says he kicks it previous school, he’s discussing the dressed-up and challenging attitude brought by Frank Sinatra and all of those other Rat Pack. The Norristown, PA, indigenous started rapping in 1996, composing rhymes and documenting in close by South Philly. Viewing himself as “a faraway Sicilian cousin of Raekwon, Nas, or Jay-Z,” J.J. followed a glance that recalled Ol’ Blue Eye in his best. With silk ties, cuff links, and the best possible Italian matches as his equipment, he released his debut record, Martini Dreams, over the Jimmy Franks label in 2008.
