Jae Alexander is a singer-songwriter hailing from our nation's capital. At first glance it's safe to say he's influenced by Musiq Soulchild especially regarding his song titles.
JustMyImagination is track five off his year old project, AllOutOfApologies. It wasn't until recently when the video released and the concept is fire. The beginning sample of the classic Temps joint in conjunction with the chords on the keys make this ballad complete. The military brat sports a nice voice with a hell of a story to tell. At times I feel like he may add an extra syllable or two at the end of some measures, but that's an easy fix. Not much pitch correction either, what you hear is what you get. Jae Alexander is so natural I'd really love to see him perform this live to see how much better it'd be than the studio version. Maybe there is hope for singers that actually sing. There's nowhere to go but up for this kid. Stay tuned for another visual to follow this one up. Check out the video to JustMyImagination after the break.
