In this episode of Let's Chat and Jam we have A Conversation With TayNZae.

TayNZae, NJ’s hottest rap duo, dropped off ‘Pop Out’ this past weekend to stamp that they’re here and dont plan on letting up throughout Q4. Coming hot off the release of Shake That earlier in the summer, the duo keeps their fans laced up with new music. We got a chance to sit down and speak with the group to find out more about what went into the making of this record. Ignoring and blazing past competition as well as focusing all of their energy on bettering each other has always been one of their trade secrets to success. The group told us “We don’t have no competition but ourselves the goal is to work on our craft and better ourselves day by day at what ever it is we do, we always challenge our self to make the next song better than the last.” This can clearly be seen throughout the delivery and cadence of the track as the 2 bounce off each other effortlessly.  When we asked the duo about their target audiences for this release they mentioned that they are aiming for the stars for this one. Aiming the track at anybody who can relate with being ‘outside’ whatever that word means to you, this track is fit for the occasion. Focusing on the vibe that the track delivers to the audience more-so than anything else allows TayNZae to really hone in on the feeling the music provides. The track also details how to deal with adversaries with bars like “stop calling n****s yo gang if they don’t even claim you as gang n’em” this means that unless your team is going to show support to you than you shouldn’t be claiming them as your team/label mates.

In this episode of Let's Chat and Jam we have A Conversation With CousinFloyd.

CousinFloyd, from Barrie, Ontario. 32, born December 28, 1990 in Huntsville, Ontario.  I have a beautiful 5 year old daughter named Cedar and a wonderful girlfriend named Tallulah. They are kerosene to my fire. My reason for everything.

I started playing music at a young age on the saxophone in elementary school and always gravitated towards jazz music and eventually became a jazz drummer. I fell in love with jazz and punk rock. An odd combo for some but one I found to be my home. After high school I started playing in a few metal bands around Ontario and touring Canada with a band called Sons of Sirens. I currently play drums in a band called “New Demons” and I also sing in a punk band called “Twist Tie” and you can check us out on YouTube and Spotify and all major platforms!

I found a genuine love for acoustic music as well as classical music.
