‘Inner Heights’ Album Release Show

Inner Heights is the first solo album of Jahson The Scientist and as the title suggests is about tapping into our inner realities that exist beyond what we see. Inspired by the quantum world, David Bohm’s “implicate order” and an understanding that intangible things affect physical reality. These concepts are woven in the wordplay and lyrics of this hip hop album with UK influences and afro-rhythms.

Science and technology has allowed us to access more information in the palm of our hand than a library can be filled with books. However, we are becoming so externally focused and are losing our own internal sat-nav and AI friendship has turned up as a solution to our decreasing social interaction.

“Inner Heights” is an empowering rebellion to this, it embraces the chaos of life and urges us to claim our sovereignty by embracing our individual worlds, our differences and celebrating that when we interact to form society.

The album brings a spotlight on themes like boundary setting on “Dutty Water, Plush Vessel”, forgiveness on “4-Giving” and self worth “Hybreed”, featuring vocals from Paulo Luemba and production from Simon Öggl, Silly Crystal, Harry Dean Lewis, Slugz and Mez. On the chorus of “Inner Heights” Paulo Luemba calls us to to embrace our centre and Jahson asks us to trust our path
and timing “in the right time, with no force, it happens”. “Lean on you” is asking us to trust the unseen source of life “Who’s bigger than “Jah”.

“Inner Heights” is a journey of an Afro-Caribbean Londoner living in Austria. Jahson has collaborated with Austrian and International artists both as a front man on projects like “Scattah Brain” and “Sketches on Duality” and collaboration with acts like Soia, Yasmo, Flip (from Texta), Spitting Ibex, SK Invitational, Holunder (Blumentopf), Daru Jones (Jack White & The Ruff Pack
