What’s better than discovering new music? Every month, we’ll be sharing the best to come from local artists.

With June coming to a close, we’ve made a playlist of songs that we think you’ll love. Check out some local music and you might find something you like!

1. King TJay – We Those Kids

A JC resident, artist King TJay released We Those Kids not too long ago right here on ChicpeaJC. This is one of the best examples of the incredible talent we have right here in Jersey City.

He’ll also be the first performer for the new ChicpeaJC event series, Music Fridays!

On a bi-weekly basis, ChicpeaJC HQ will be hosting performances by local artists. Catch King Tjay live on Periscope and Snapchat and our HQ Instagram on July 1st!
