Pop R&B singer J Rand sat down and discussed his inspirations and his music in a new ‘Meet JRand: Episode 1’ video. In the clip, Joshua Randall opened up about what sparked his drive to be an entertainer, and also goes behind the scenes of recording and filming for his debut single, ‘Up Against the Wall’.
As for his early inspiration to get into music, the artist said, “When I was a kid, I was just always fascinated with entertainers, Michael Jackson, I saw that guy dance and thought I want to do something like that when I grow up. I think it started out with me dancing around at my sister’s birthday parties. Performing and getting that attention, I like that feel, of feeling pressure and getting up in front of people and just performing and getting that nervous energy out. I developed a love for singing and then a love for writing. As a child, just playing around in my garage. It’s kind of funny, my mother always said you make a living now and you’re still playing around.”
