In a time when digital connections are short lived, Richmond-based artist Cazzjezter gives us a song that’s deeply grounded, “Woman I Don’t Know Yet.” It’s not a regular pop love song, it is about being prepared spiritually and the burden of future commitment.
Cazzjezter makes his music very personal. He did all the work by himself, when he recorded at 2 a.m. in his kitchen while he listened to Kyrie Irving highlights in the background. He kept his first voice and guitar takes instead of polishing them, keeping the honesty. The result is a feeling that is real and human, a combination of simple sounds and a thoughtful indie-soul feeling.
The song revolves around “healthy masculinity.” Cazzjezter goes beyond the topic of attraction and looks at responsibility and spiritual growth needed to love well. It’s a rare look at the mixing of faith and mental health with romance. His manner of bringing quiet thoughts into the music makes him stand out as a conservative voice in indie music.
“Woman I Don’t Know Yet” asks you to consider your own thoughts and beliefs. If you want music that’s real and clear, Cazzjezter is an artist to watch.
