Dutch rapper Jay-Way links up with Parris Chariz on “Shawty Goodnight”
Amsterdam rapper Jay-Way cites artists such as Linkin Park, Lil Wayne, N.E.R.D and Avril Lavigne as some of his musical influences. You can hear these artists influence in his music. His latest offering “Shawty Goodnight” is built over a captivating production— the 808 drum loop and electric guitar riffs evoke the neon nostalgia of the 1980’s but with a modern-day twist.
Although the track has a melodic vibe throughout and an infectious hook, lyrically it’s an emotionally-charged track about the grind many artists go through on the come up— choosing between their art or romance. On this occasion the artist chooses his art, showing listeners how committed he is to his music.
