You always fall before you conquer. This would be the best way to describe the life of young hip-hop artist Jason “Osyrus” Vogel. Born on October 25, 1994 in Los Angeles, California, music has always been an outlet for him. His passion for music started as a young kid when he began playing the drums and from there his interest only continued to grow. His early influences in music were names such as Wu- Tang Clan, Dr. Dre, and Nas. Jay had a normal childhood until suddenly at age 14, his father passed away. Jason then moved to a little town in Pennsylvania called Chalfont, with his sister and mother. Being raised by a single mother left him lots of time to get into trouble. While going in and out of juvenile facilities, talking to doctors, therapists and struggling to find himself, he began song writing. At first songwriting was just an outlet for his emotions, but he later realized he wanted to share his experiences and let people know they are strongest at their lowest. It was then at age 16 he became serious about pursuing a hip hop career. Several years later, he released his first tape in 2014, titled “When Gold Decays”. He has opened for artists such as Shwayze, Chris Webbie, Hi-Rez, Emilio Rojas and more. he now lives in los angeles where he released his second tape "MY Great Escape" and co-founded Tied In Music Group. Lots of singles on the way and a new tape coming summer 2017.
