Emcee Jesz records for Indian Movie Industry

Emcee Jesz

He was in Chennai recently to record for composer Harris Jayaraj, among other things.

He rapped for a full-fledged English song that'll feature in Prabhu Deva's upcoming flick, and understandably, Emcee Jesz is super excited about it. "Harris has always used me very differently in his tracks. In this number, I rap fully in English. The track is a proper hip-hop and RNB number," states the musician.

Association with Harris
It has been excellent. He's a brilliant composer-cum-engineer. I love the fat mixing and mastering quality in his music. This time, I'm recording three songs for him, including two for Ko.

Rap in Kollywood
... provides a nice flavour to the numbers as the Tamil audiences are used to listening to love numbers and kuthu songs. Tamil rap has become a trend now and I'm happy that my album Kavithai Gundar was a huge hit last year. Rap has got attitude, meaning and style; it just gels well in any kind of music and boosts it up.

Of kuthu and rap
When rap blends with other genres, it helps the album musically. Till now, Tamil rap has been mixed with kuthu songs and my four songs in this blend have been featured in Kuruvi and Maasilamani.

Inspiration
My role model for hip-hop music is Dr Dre from the United States. His music made me get into rap music deeply and helped me a lot. He is a hardworking rap musician with 'street attitude'!

Lyrical variety
I love Vijay Antony's unique style of using new words in his songs. I've just worked with him for a song in Uthama Putthiran. Other than that, I'm also working with D Imman in Valluvar Kottam.
