About me
London/Manchester/Dublin, United Kingdom
JyellowL capped off what was globally an unpredictable and challenging year with his critically acclaimed debut album 2020 D|vision, which was nominated for Irish album of the year 2020 at the RTÉ Choice Music Prize Awards and debuted at number 2 on the official iTunes album charts as well as number 1 in the hiphop category. The album served as a timely soundtrack and breath of fresh air for an overwhelming year, manifesting JyellowL’s intention to put Irish rap on the map as a force to be reckoned with on a global front. The Irish Times highlighted the “clever word play and precocious wisdom” of JYellowL's 2020 D|vision, while Hotpress magazine heralded it as a body of work that “consistently hits the mark” and others described the album as reminiscent of P.M Dawn and The streets.
Following successful tours with the likes of Nelly, The Game and De La Soul. JyellowL is emerging into this changing world of 2023 with a string of new releases and collaborations coming to fruition.

Blessings
This is a track that is uplifting by design. It is supposed to be a sonic manifestation of blessings. also a humble reminder to count your blessings and recognise your privileges, down to the most obvious one, the gift of life. So many people seek instant gratification and this can cause ingratitude. As long as we are breathing we have the ability to multiply our blessings.
