blackwhitegoldville represents the personal growth of Jansport J over the past 2 years. It is by all accounts and intentions, his most personal album to date. The colors black and white symbolize the classic aesthetic, gold, a standard bearer - reinforcing the idea of forever and "ville" representing a metaphysical presence in a state of mind. The album creates a soundscape to his dealings with all aspects of his life over a period of time spent mostly in solitude, from the conscious to the subconscious realms, and his resolution in moving forward from the darkness. blackwhitegoldville follows 2014's The Soul Provider, and will be Jansport J's second project released on Delicious Vinyl.
