Raymond West Rocks By With Mixtape, ‘Jerseys & Convertibles’

With the hot summer days getting shorter by the week, fast approaching the winter season, RAYMOND WEST gives fans and new listeners a mixtape to help turn that page and close out the summer months. ‘Jerseys & Convertibles’ cruises into the function being backed by three previous singles in ‘Smoke out the Roof’, ‘4 You’ and ‘Carphones & Beepers’, bringing along four new songs for our listening pleasure.

Raymond West speaks highly on his current lifestyle throughout the tape, from his views of life to what he eats and what he maneuvers around the city in. He also aims to keep the ladies appleased with afterhours-inspired cuts such as ‘4 You’ & ‘Overheated’.

Raymond West goes out on a high with outro ‘Sweat$’, where he doesn’t pay too much attention to any worries or negativity of today and just rocks his sweats and keeps to himself. “I wanted to do a song about my everyday simple life, highlight the regular shit instead of all the flashy shit, I can wear sweats with every outfit” says West when speaking about the track.

Song of the Day: When We Were – Lexi Jordan

LEXI JORDAN takes a trip back to the school days with single, ‘When We Were’. The emotive single, that’s immediately compelling, sees the rising Country-Pop artist New England becoming increasingly appreciative of the carefree days spent during the high school years.

Lexi Jordan began her career by conquering her fear of performing at Faneuil Hall in Boston, Massachusetts back in 2016. This led to a self-revolution far beyond what Jordan ever imagined possible. She continued on to perform at Indian Ranch, “New England’s Home of Country Music”, and The Big E, the sixth largest fair in the nation. In 2017, Jordan accepted Female Vocalist of the Year by NECMO. She was also nominated for five 2020 Worcester Music Awards and accepted the “Best College Act” award.
