On this week’s episode of the District 3 Podcast, hosts Irvin, Miggs, and Elena sit down with one of the most intriguing young artists emerging from the scene right now — JP. At only 18 years old, JP is already redefining what it means to be a versatile performer. After spending the last few years mastering the traditional world of Mariachi, he’s now stepping boldly into a new era of his artistry: a smooth, soulful lane inspired by the timeless swagger of legends like Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, and the entire golden-age crooner era.
In this episode, JP opens up about the moment he realized he wanted to switch genres, the challenges of reinventing himself at such a young age, and how his cultural roots still influence his sound today. The hosts dig into his creative process, the risks he’s taking, and the vision behind his fresh new approach to music.
JP also breaks down the making of his debut single, “SUFFERING,” a track that marks his official leap into his solo career. It’s emotional, atmospheric, and showcases a side of him that fans haven’t heard before — and it’s out now on all streaming platforms.
Tap in for an episode full of laughs, inspiration, behind-the-scenes stories, and a look at an artist who’s just getting started but already moving with star-level intention. This is one you don’t want to miss.
