Chester "Lyfe" Jennings

The best new artist you've never heard of is Chester "Lyfe" Jennings and he has an album out titled Lyfe 268-192. Please believe this man is like John Legend, Musiq Soulchild, India Arie, Al Green, and a touch of Tupac (for the realness factor) all rolled into one being.

The 26 year old Toledo, Ohio native made a name for himself by winning Amateur Night at the Apollo 5 times! His style is so unlike anything on the charts right now and it's refreshing to hear a young man sing with so much passion and truth. Listening to his album is like being resuscitated. He'll definitely breathe new life into you.

He reveals a lot of his personal angst and triumphs by singing about his 10 year prison bid and baby momma drama. This is nothing new but it's the way he delivers his message that sets him apart from anything that's been said and done before. The song, She Got Kids, talks about a love interest that has children and how hard this is for a man to deal with. Sure it can be done, but he explains that he doesn't want to expose and innocent child to a man that "may one day decide he's tired of the family life"...true, true.

A self taught acoustic guitar, bass and piano player, Lyfe puts his soul into every note. His album is an instant classic in my opinion because it's been in my cd player on repeat for the past 4 days.
