Martin Bauman

Interview by: Martin Bauman What happens when you feel like you've hit the ceiling in Toronto's music scene? Either you give up, or like Junia-T, you look for that next step to grow. So it was that the Mississauga-raised artist found himself hopping on a plane to the United Kingdom, eager to find a musical foothold outside of his hometown. Even more remarkable was the timing: his latest project, Eye See You, came out when he was overseas -- quite the leap of faith, when most artists would seek comfort in celebrating the release in their hometown. We caught up with Junia-T to talk about his month-long departure to England, things happening on divine time, being rich in love, and much more. Listen to the podcast above and read the interview after the jump.

[LP] Junia-T- “Eye See You”

Michael K

"This project is a collage of vibes reflecting all that I've been through in the past year and a half. A big thank you to the Universe for holding a brova down... Eye See You," said Junia-T. Following a slew of teasers over the summer, Junia-T finally unveils his highly anticipated LP, Eye See You. Throughout Eye See You, Junia-T's raw prose is smoovely blended with traces of psychedelia, neo soul, and futuristic vibes; all while reviving the best of backpacker nostalgia. Tracks such as "How Can I," "Sky Is Falling" and "Everyday" bring back that classic, soulful vibe, reminiscent of the Pete Rock and Dilla era of hip hop. I've always respected artists who produce their own projects from the ground up; and the sound that Juina- T has captured with Eye See You makes this project an instant classic. Premiering on OkayPlayer, the self-produced project features Little Simz, LordQuest, Franc Grams, and more. Be sure to check out Juina- T's latest project, and be sure to share your thoughts with us.
