He coined the genre, &#8216;Country-Geechie Culture&#8217;, on his latest project, &#8216;Geechie Gospel&#8217;, a personal brand of music that illustrates a backroad perspective. His distinct southern dialect and radical metaphors and punchlines illuminate the life he lived, on the dirt roads. With a mix of chill and smooth songs with a few club tracks dusted into &#8216;Geechie Gospel&#8217;, MSC Jay is carving his own path and uniquely redefining the reality of rap.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The music video for &#8216;Take You There&#8217; is set at a party. Girls walk in, and ignore the advances of every other man until MSC Jay enters. He catches their eyes instantly. The added feature of neon laser outlines emphasizes the excitement and hype of the people and the party.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Rell, from Roc-a-Fella Records supports &#8216;Take You There&#8217; with his RnB approach. There&#8217;s a summertime influence to the song; energetic bass-heavy, the track has a mid-eighties tone. MSC Jay bought three beats from producer, Mr. Hanky, and built on it with Rell, perfectly representing the &#8220;Geechie Gullah&#8221; culture and their exclusive expression.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Watch the video for &#8216;Take You There&#8217;:<\/p>\n<div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\">\n<div  style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto;\"  id=\"_ytid_38901\"  width=\"640\" height=\"360\"  data-origwidth=\"640\" data-origheight=\"360\"  data-relstop=\"1\" data-facadesrc=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/i9yFPgz7bSg?enablejsapi=1&#038;origin=https:\/\/essentiallypop.com&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=0&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=1&#038;controls=1&#038;disablekb=0&#038;color=red&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;rel=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;theme=dark&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__ epyt-facade epyt-is-override  no-lazyload\" data-epautoplay=\"1\" ><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-spai-excluded=\"true\" class=\"epyt-facade-poster skip-lazy\" loading=\"lazy\"  alt=\"MSC Jay ft Rell - Take You There (Official Video)\"  src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/i9yFPgz7bSg\/maxresdefault.jpg?w=640&#038;ssl=1\"  \/><button class=\"epyt-facade-play\" aria-label=\"Play\"><svg data-no-lazy=\"1\" height=\"100%\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 68 48\" width=\"100%\"><path class=\"ytp-large-play-button-bg\" d=\"M66.52,7.74c-0.78-2.93-2.49-5.41-5.42-6.19C55.79,.13,34,0,34,0S12.21,.13,6.9,1.55 C3.97,2.33,2.27,4.81,1.48,7.74C0.06,13.05,0,24,0,24s0.06,10.95,1.48,16.26c0.78,2.93,2.49,5.41,5.42,6.19 C12.21,47.87,34,48,34,48s21.79-0.13,27.1-1.55c2.93-0.78,4.64-3.26,5.42-6.19C67.94,34.95,68,24,68,24S67.94,13.05,66.52,7.74z\" fill=\"#f00\"><\/path><path d=\"M 45,24 27,14 27,34\" fill=\"#fff\"><\/path><\/svg><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Saint Helena Island in South Carolina has a population of slightly more than 8000 people.
