Jim E. Watts grew up in Detroit, Michigan. Watts is an all-around musician (saxophonist, guitarist, pianist drummer and hip-hop artist). He has been producing music since the age of 13, and writing since 15. With his nostalgic, therapeutic and ear pleasing sound, Watts's music is influenced by artist such as Andre 3000, Lauryn Hill, Eyrka Badu, Drake, Kendrick Lamar, Eminem, Prince, Jamiroquai and Sade. His music stands to tell a tale of heartbreak and life experience. Every song is from the heart making him relatable, which allows his words to cut deeper. Unapologetically unafraid of being different or willing to stray from the social norms, music has become Watts’s therapeutic release.
