Jay Critch first drew attention three years ago when his track "Man Down " blew up on Soundcloud. At the time, it was a rarity in its field — the song had a kind of bounce that was different than most of the auto-tuned, over-processed hooks that were popular at the time. It was raw, uncut and purely New York. Before the release of "Man Down ," Critch's name was already quietly buzzing around the city, on street corners, and booming out of car speakers, as a go-to artist for the aux chord. To the boroughs, he has long-been a local pop star. Now, if you were to ask any millennial who springs to mind when it comes to those raising the profile the New York rap scene, "Jay Critch" will likely be an automated response. And listening to tracks like "Adlibs" and "In-And-Out" while seeing him featured on Future's Hendrix tour , proves that Critch is keeping that same energy that got him his buzz in the city. I met up with the Trinidadian-Guyanese, New York-native at his new label, which he now shares with hip-hop giants like Kendrick Lamar. S igning was another check off his bucket list, and his brother-like bond with labelmate Rich the Kid meant choosing Interscope Records as a home particularly appealing. Despite his recent success, Citch didn't reach the mainstream overnight.
