If you haven’t heard the name Jai’Len Josey,  we are sure you’ll be hearing it everywhere soon. This songwriter, producer, and all around entertainer is back with her new double-single ‘Conversations from A Payphone’, a small yet impactful glimpse into her new era of music. The insane vocals and storytelling found in songs “Mixed Signals” and “Playground” remind us of why we became fans, and why we will be fans for life. Since we last spoke to her, Jai’Len has also released her first EP under Def Jam titled 'Southern Delicacy’ and was named M&M's and Rock the Bells Artist On The Rise, both of which we were able to touch on with her. The vision she has for her music never ceases to impress us, especially now knowing how much effort, thought, and love she continues to put into it after this interview . We hope you enjoy reading about it as much as we love speaking to her about it. We talked to Jai’Len about the stories behind “Conversations from A Payphone”, working with Harold Lilly and D’Mile, what to expect from her debut album, and much more.
