Up And Coming Artist PJ Is Making Waves With Her Innovative Lyrics And Fresh Sound Hailing from North Carolina before later moving to Atlanta, 26-year-old PJ let us in on her new album ‘Rare’ and how her first tour has affected her transition into the limelight. “I feel like I’m the underdog, so I’m proving a lot to different people. I’m getting used to it now. It’s just a part of it. To even get signed, it wasn’t like ‘Oh you’re dope let me give you a deal’. I had to fight for that. Atlantic told me no the first time. I just feel like nobody’s counting on me to win. PJ initially started writing back in high school before catching the interest of a few record labels. She’s been signed for about a year and a half now with Atlantic and has already collaborated with a number of hot artists from Meek Mill to Lil Boosie to B.O.B. Her credentials are solid and she talked to us about how linking up with some of these artists came to pass… “Most of my songs, I didn’t really get to make them with the artists. [It’s recording demo’s] and sending them out. I think ‘Not For Long’ came out before I met B.O.B. They have teams trying to make the best thing possible for them. It’s a lot of moving pieces. Like you’ll hear ‘Oh Wiz is working, he’s looking for this,’ and then everyone starts sending stuff out. It’s kind of like friendly competition to see who gets picked.” Now, PJ is on her very first tour performing her original music from her album ‘Rare’.
