In this interview, Arshan caught up with JELEEL! during KTO’s most recent trip to NYC. Originally from Rhode Island, JELEEL! began his music career in 2017 while attending university. He moved to LA, refined his sound, and in 2018, released the standout song “WARTIME!”. After dropping “Sweetspot!” in 2019, JELEEL! released his debut project, Angel from Heaven. In 2021, JELEEL! released “DIVE IN!” which went viral & now has over 70 million plays on Spotify alone. His most recent single, “SHOTS!” featuring Denzel Curry, dropped in November 2022.
During their conversation, JELEEL! discusses why he’s so kindhearted, rappers acting tough, dealing w/ big egos, & moving to LA. He explains how ripping his shirt created opportunities for him to make money and reveals that he graduated from college. JELEEL! talks about how studying Psychology helped his rap career, dealing w/ homelessness while making music, & how he stayed focused & inspired while in his struggle. He says he’s inspired by artists like Tyler the Creator & Lil Nas X to not give up promoting his music, revealing he’s been promoting “DIVE IN!” for almost 2 years.
JELEEL! then talks about Denzel Curry showing him love, his insane live shows, and doing backflips & stage dives. He says he’s hopeful to one day have a t-shirt sponsor for all the ones he rips, before explaining how he exercises. Arshan & JELEEL! agree that his music would be perfect for FIFA and JELEEL! talks about his versatility as an artist. Arshan shows him iShowSpeed’s music & says his music is underrated, before JELEEL! gives his advice for the youth: be yourself & do what you love. Kids Take Over is based in Vancouver, Canada.

😮❤🎉x
got to see him at rolling loud in miami this summer and he had more energy and better stage presence than almost any other rapper at the festival
Nah seriously just looking at videos and it’s very unreal. Don’t want to jinx it but surprised he hasn’t gotten hurt.
Yeah bro I was in the mosh probably the most energetic performance besides Jasiah
Probably because he is not a rapper
i believe that
good cardiovascular health works wonders
I know he’s funny & all but listen to what dude be saying and it’s motivation asf
This is facts
@@KidsTakeOver Yo KTO can i work for you guys and help out? I’m from Toronto Canada
Man's got pure energy.
This dude is a breath of fresh air…. I’m an immediate fan as of four days ago, I’m picking up whatever he’s putting down
Cute lamb.
Jeleel been grinding. I remember seeing him out downtown LA back in 2018 at YesJulz radio show. He’s came a long way. Glad to see him taking off. Knew he was a star.
I went to Cali back in June. I was bumping the hell out his music and introduced some of my friends too it. I randomly bumped into him in LA at an event called Black Market Flea. He was hella chill, and gave great vibes. Told me we’ll meet again. Can’t wait to see you again bro.
as a rhode islander im so proud to see Jeleel killing it, i remember one of his cousins showing me his early music back in 2017 so to see this now is amazing
Jeleel is the most inspirational artist to come out of the scene, and especially to other artists. Hes proof you can beat the odds. Everyone in the scene knows jeleel has been grinding so hard for years. its great to see
Oh hell yeah a new age rapper that’s Muslim and actually seems like he care about his deen. We love to see it
How does new age and Islam correlate? They contradict each other
@@bardockojama3423 I think he means new age as in like the next generation rather than the literal New Age spiritual movement.
Alhamdulillah bro
No, music is haram, we shouldn't say this is something inspirational or something we want to see, may Allah guide us all Ameen
@@Klick17 check the Quran again. It doesn’t say music is haram.
fire interview with Jeleel! its cool to see someone stick to their vision and have a strong vision early in their career to push them to follow thru and make risky moves but they believe in themselves 100
Hearing Jeleel talk fills me with so much joy. Hearing someone actually care about being nice, doing what you want and not doing what everyone else does was a breath of fresh air. Love you Jeleel hope you're good and keep making fire music
Big fan of July!
Great interview KTO!
Man I love that these interviews aren’t insanely long, but with some of the guests I could watch forever 😂
Jeleel is so smart and a really good person. Big respect to Jeleel and his come up congrats on the denzel curry feat. He is such an inspiration 💯🔥

Sick as hell
“KNOW WHO YOU ARE”

*Stares In Jeleel*
U know what, he’s right
love seeing this guy succeed.
seen him open for fauni , 3 years ago , nobdoy was feeling him or knew who he was, he was doing backflips n rippin off his t shirt n honestly people were scared , so fye to see him here
Jaleel looks like the human form of Geodude from Pokémon.
I remember when he had like 10k followers and wondering how he was going to blow up. Loved how he used his degree for actual professional use.
The mid-interview delivery 😭 16:15
Haha he said he hadn’t ate anything all day
I love you both!
🤍
Communications is such a ass major but psychology is a part of communications the way you speak can alter a persons mind not even the words you say I feel like that helped me a lot in my life keep up the communications major it’s great for you doing interviews and just talking to people
It’s wild how a lot of the dudes that make rage music be some of the nicest sweets most kindred spirits. It just speaks the the culture and what it actually represents
i feel like its because they direct there bad thoughts into an art form instead of taking it out in other ways in there life lokey
THANKFUL TO BE ALIVE 😊❤ GO GET EM JALEEL! You are rich you did it all on your own
We love you Jeleel 🫶🏻
Bro so peaceful, i fw it
This man should do some type of work with the WWE. His energy and athleticism would be great their fr.
