Premiering on Billboard.com this week (http://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/the-juice/1537534/common-j-period-the-next-chapter-still-love-her) and celebrating the release of NY Times best-selling author Adam Mansbach's novel, Rage Is Back, J.PERIOD joins forces with hip hop icon COMMON for the exclusive new single, "The Next Chapter (Still Love H.E.R.)" [Produced by J.PERIOD].  "The Next Chapter (Still Love H.E.R.)" celebrates the latest episode in COMMON’s lifelong lyrical love-affair with hip hop, over exclusive production by J.PERIOD, and marks the second installment of a literary first: exclusive promo music released in tandem with a new novel. 

Set against the backdrop of graffiti-era New York, Manbach’s Rage Is Back delivers a mind-bending journey through a subterranean world of epic heroes and villains, and is already being called “the great American graffiti novel.”  A must-read for any literate hip-hop fan, Rage is Back is available in the iTunes bookstore (http://itunes.apple.com/us/book/rage-is-back/id540077534?mt=11) and is currently one of Amazon’s “Books of the Month” (http://www.amazon.com/Rage-Is-Back-A-Novel/dp/0670026123).

"The Next Chapter (Still Love H.E.R.)" Feat. COMMON  [Produced by J.PERIOD]

Hailed as a “music guru” by Rolling Stone and cited among the “world’s Top DJ’s” by The New York Times, J.PERIOD is a master of his craft: a musical storyteller whose work bridges cultures, generations and styles.

As a DJ & Producer, J.PERIOD's resume boasts collaborations with GRAMMY® winners Nas, Kanye West, Common, John Legend, The Roots, Q-Tip, Lauryn Hill, Mary J. Blige and Pulitzer Prize-winning Playwright Lin-Manuel Miranda on the Billboard #1 album, The Hamilton Mixtape.

His extensive roster of collaborators, combined with a visionary approach to musical storytelling, have earned comparisons to both DJ Khaled and Ken Burns and most recently, a prestigious post as a founding member of The Kennedy Center's Hip Hop Culture Council. “Make no mistake,” says DJ Booth, “as to the power of J.PERIOD’s impact and influence on hip hop culture.”  Music icon Questlove (The Roots, The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon) calls J.PERIOD “the most creative mixtape producer of all-time.”

J.PERIOD’s work has also been featured in film and TV (American Gangster, NBA Inside Stuff, The Doctor), earning an EMMY®.  His groundbreaking work as Music Supervisor for the Brooklyn Nets’ debut Barclays Center was lauded as “the new standard” for music in the NBA arena.
