On June 12, Music Export Memphis will be heading to the Great White North (Toronto, to be exact) for this year’s NXNE Music Festival, one of the best ways for up-and-coming artists to gain more widespread exposure. MEM will be bringing 5 Memphis artists–Mak Ro, Raneem Imam, Lukah, Jai Musiq and Deonna Sirod–for a showcase of some of the Bluff City’s brightest talent. Since first breaking out in 2015, Jai Musiq has released a steady flow of excellent music, most recently dropping the singles “J.U.U.G. !” and “Ain’t Shit.” With an inspirational message and a versatile sound, Jai Musiq is an artist that commands attention. Like many of the artists in this list, Sirod’s music is not easily categorized, blending several different genres into a unified whole.
