Bursting with sophisticated musicianship and intelligent lyricism, Vibe Riot makes a scene with its bluesy funk. Fronted by Brooklyn-born and Virginia-raised J. “Jaewar” King, the group’s percussive music awakens the mind and soul, bringing diverse genres together with socially conscious messaging that draws comparisons to Kendrick Lamar and Anderson .Paak.
