JUNGLE BASH ‘19 - DISCIPLE MUSIC

By: Irate Specialist

If you’re a millennial or a member of Gen Z, one concept I’m sure you’re familiar with is “FOMO” and if you weren’t at Jungle Bash ‘19 I fear that, you missed out.

This amazing party hosted by local artist, Rightful Disciple featured a couple vendors, beer pong tables, a volleyball court, live performances and food.

The Jungle, the location of this amazing event, was a beautiful spot with just the right amount of space to party all day long.

Rightful Disciple was able to assemble an all-star list of New Jersey talent including: Samad Savage, Ethan Ross, Geno Five and Turkish Royale as well as other incredible New Jersey talent including the host himself.

Despite the fact that they were serving free beer, the performances were the main reason why folks turned out for this event.

Tiffany, 24, was looking forward to seeing all of the artists who were coming out. “I��ve been to the practices before here, and they all have talent,” she said. “It’s unbelievable. All put together, it’s something you want to see, something you can’t miss.”

This praise was not misplaced as every artist who took the stage rocked it.

Saint James was one of the first artists to tear the stage up. It was easy to ride the wave he was on with his song “Calling”. Before I knew it, the whole crowd was bobbing back and forth as the song washed over them.

Ron Solemn was one of the next artists to take the mic and helped to set the tone for the rest of the event with one of the best performances of the day. He and his friend, Black Panther, came out with water guns spraying the crowd providing much needed relief from the heat we were under. After cooling us down he set the stage on fire with straight bangers from his new project Ronald, which I highly suggest everyone go listen to.

Even the intermission was lit. As the artists in the crowd took the opportunity to grab the mic and spit some epic freestyles, they kept the energy and good vibes alive.

After the intermission it was back to the music and Ethan Ross, our local portable speaker freestyle legend came through bringing the energy that he was known for.

Even Otto Haze, 27 another Jersey artist, had been looking forward to Ethan Ross hitting the stage. “My boy Ethan Ross has some of the greatest energy I've seen out here in awhile,” said Haze.

Geno Five was also one of the artists many people came out to see. Quan, 24, had been boys with Geno Five from high school and came to show support. “I’m really proud of his growth as an artist. I’ve seen the whole thing since high school and to see how he’s taken it serious is inspiring,” he said. Geno’s dedication to the game was instantly recognizable throughout his set. His song “Getting Played” had the whole crowd bumping to his lyrics and the instrumental.

Turkish Royale, Samad Savage and Rightful Disciple were a few of the acts that helped to close out. The performances were strong. And it was easy to see came to spit. With each artist’s energy, it helped to keep the vibes right until the end of the night. One of my favorite moments of Turkish Royale’s set was when he brought out Samad Savage to perform their latest collaboration “No Chill”. Though it was clearly a last minute request, both artists were were still able to kill the track and keep it entertaining.

Rightful Disciple’s set let the party know that not only is he a talented host but he was also an incredible artist. His complex rhyme schemes showed off his skill while he was still able to keep the audience engaged throughout the performance. With the level of skill of every artist who took the stage it was easy to see why audience engagement throughout the day was incredibly high from partygoers and fellow artists alike.

“I like how every time these artists perform all the other artists were there supporting as well showing respect to each artist,” said Natalie, 22.
