brugjam past present and future
this is brugjam. we’re an irish rap label/ group/ collective of teenagers operated mainly by me, who’s the leader. I don’t have a rapper/ artist name yet so I’m still on the hunt.
past
Brugjam has existed since the 11th of April 2019 when we had a filmmaking workshop in school and made the song and video for Markinthewild (you can find it on our youtube page). Brugjam was pretty quiet for the next year or so, with nothing bar 1 single dropping until the 11th of September 2020 when we started a run of singles (lifestyle, count it up, fucking scared etc). These were supposed to run up to the album release of State Issued Bars on the 9th of November but due to recording delays due to lockdown the album was quiet delayed.
present
State Issued Bars dropped on the 2nd of April 2021. The release was a little messy, and so far it has mainly only been listened to by friends from school. They all liked it but the reach hasn’t been far.
Since the release of State Issued Bars people have begun to take a bit more interest in us and we have 2 EPs and 1 LP currently in direct creation and 2 other LPs in planned production. All of the projects are with different artists with crossover bar one of the planned projects which is a group album. That’s still a good bit far away.
Brugjam wouldn’t exist if it wasn’t for Kanye West.
Brugjam wouldn’t be where it was if it wasn’t for Tyler, the Creator and my friend Konrad.
Brugjam wouldn’t be where it’s going if it wasn’t for Steve Lacy, Kevin Abstract, Jafaris and BROCKHAMPTON.
we probably wouldn’t sound the same or have the same vision if it wasn’t for Odd Future, Wutang, Tribe called Quest, GOOD music, Kota the friend +more
future
Our goals and hopes are to perform live one day, get in a professional music studio one day, keep making music,
I also really want to make films. Right now our equipment is quite limited but that isn’t going to stop us. A few of us in brugjam have an interest in filmmaking. I really love the short films kevin abstract made for American Boyfriend. A few of the projects coming up are visual albums.
I’m not too sure about the future but I and we are just gonna keep making our stuff and see where it takes us. hopefully somewhere cool + out of here.
we are taking on members if you want to hop along with whatever you do by the way
