Flint’s TJA takes listeners on a soothing trip down memory lane with his reflective new single “Old Shit.”
Flint, Michigan’s own TJA has a knack for blending genres and speaking his truth, and his new single “Old Shit” continues that tradition. Known for genuine tracks like “Deep End,” “Not Giving Up,” and “Pot Of Gold,” TJA delivers a song that feels both nostalgic and refreshingly candid.
“Old Shit” finds TJA reminiscing about life before COVID, a time when people gathered freely and originality thrived. He laments today’s culture of chasing trends and fame, noting how everyone seems to dress alike and ride the same creative waves. It’s a poignant reflection on how quickly the world—and personal connections—have changed.
The production matches the message perfectly. Built on an airy, organic instrumental, the beat exudes calm and warmth, offering a sonic escape from the chaos TJA describes. It’s music that feels like a quiet summer breeze.
Vocally, TJA is equally captivating. His rapid delivery pairs effortlessly with gentle melodies, creating a performance that’s as soothing as it is sharp. “Old Shit” stands as a reminder that simplicity can be powerful, and that looking back can sometimes help us move forward.
