Recently I caught up with Sydney sider NJE via email and sent the questionnaire, you can read all his responses below. NJE hails from Campbeltown and has recently released his new album From The Outside Looking In…… which i’m pretty sure is going to be available through JB Hifi soon (if not already). If you can’t get a copy and you want to check it out, join up to the NJE Facebook page and send him a message; i’m sure he’ll help.
Alternatively, go do your research now on NJE and drop by here tomorrow morning for your chance to win the CD, we’ll be giving away 2 copies.

Musical Specifics
What got you into music?
Well as a teen I was really into hip-hop, the culture, the lyrics, the reality in it all. Most kids in my school were into grunge/rock. When I finished school I started writing & slowly developed into the artist I am today. Music has got me through my hard times by expressing what I’m going through. It’s always been a love thing!!
What’s your favourite instrument?
The Sax because its got so much soul to it.. I love that soul feel.. I recently played live with a sax player & it was crazy!! I’m also a big fan of the piano too though!
Favourite album of all time?
Easily JAY-Z: RESONABLE DOUBT, its a classic!! I can bump it today & STILL catch lines that wow me!..
Favourite song of all time?
Its hard to pick just 1.. Some of my favs include: JAY-Z: D’EVILS, JAY ELECTRONICA: EXIBIT B, PETE ROCK & CL SMOOTH: WHEN THEY REMINICE OVER YOU, GANGSTARR: MASS APPEAL, THE BEATNUTS feat. BIG PUN: OFF THE BOOKS… Damn so much more!!
Favourite artist of all time?
All time.. JAY-Z (especially his older work not so much the new stuff) today though my fav would be JAY ELECTRONICA!! This guys gonna change the game!!
