Hailing from the city of Shelby in North Carolina, iHATEJON is an alternative hip hop artist who draws influence from the likes of J. Cole, Lil Peep, Mac Miller, Kid Cudi and Dominic Fike. From a broad range of inspirations with everything from soul and blues to modern day emo rap, he distills a sound that’s new and distinctly his own.
Wrapped up in subtle lo-fi tones, iHATEJON’s sonic output is the perfect example of songwriting talent bringing forth their creative vision independently. Over the last couple of years he’s been on the rise since dropping his debut single with 2020’s “Purple AçaÔ which he’s followed up with a string of well-received tracks and clocked tens of thousands of streams of his music along the way.
Now he brings us one of his most recent releases with the new single titled “Wake Up”. Spinning a delicate dreamy sound of reverb-drenched instrumental touches and a steady shuffling beat, with his new single iHATEJON offers a melodic and uplifting sound.
Full of velvety layered vocal harmonies with a laid back delivery, on “Wake Up” the artist shares a short and sweet vibe that shows a new side of his evolving sound. Full of mesmeric writing and an immersive airy arrangement, “Wake Up” is an instantly memorable indie pop jam from an exciting artist that you just can’t help but love.
