New York, NY (Top40 Charts) After releasing 2 EP's and 1 album in 2021, Washington, DC Rapper J Ru (www.ChocolateChipMusic.com) will release his most ambitious project yet, the 14-track autobiographical new album "XIV XXVIII", out December 31, 2021 on digital platforms. Having faced depression, anxiety, body dysmorphia and self-image issues throughout his life, J Ru has used the gym and music as ways to overcome and transform a negative into a positive. "XIV XXVIII" finds J Ru's vocals fully seasoned and surprisingly unique, with a lyrical flow worthy of multiple listens. The production and music are dense, soulful and immersive.
From the Artist: "Music has been a driving force throughout my entire life, right from the very start. It's both core and vital to who I am as a person. It took forever and a half to put all the pieces together, but my latest release, XIV XXVIII, gives you insight into who I am as a person, and provides some life stories if you scratch beneath the surface. The project is also specifically designed for you to draft away, turn the volume up, and bob that head. The economy of words and infrastructure of them on the album, is something I'd like for you to pay special attention to as well. I hope you'll take some time to go and listen to this day dreamer. Peace and Love, J Ru"
J Ru takes inspiration from XXXTENTACION, Kendrick Lamar, Juice WRLD, Lil Wayne, Wiz Khalifa,
Lil Xan and Lil Peep.
"XIV XXVIII" is out now on major platforms.
