CT DUO IN THEIR OWN LANE
Meet Young Jigga and Fat Leece. These brothers from Connecticut are the definition of authenticity when it comes to creating sounds. This is years in the making. Jigga and Leece have been making music and rapping for as long as they can remember. When they were younger, their dad would play music for them and they would sit around rapping over songs together, especially ones about superheroes which they compliment throughout their own music. It’s clear to see they both took what they heard in their younger days and twisted it into their own sound.
It wasn’t until 2018 that Jigga and Leece started recording their own music. Jigga had saw that his brother, Leece, showed passion in music and wanted to be right there beside him doing it. Over the next two years they got in the studio to figure out their sound and what works best for them. During the years of 2020-2023 Leece had taken a hiatus from music while Jigga continued to release music on his own establishing himself as an artist in Connecticut. He released his first 3 songs in 2023 and then followed that up with his first solo tape titled “TRAPPED IN MY BAG” in September of 2024 with stand out tracks like “MASQUERADE” and “REVEAL MY ALL”.
Once it was time for Leece to lock back in, it was go time. They released their first tape together called “MARC & PAU” in June of this year. When listening to tracks like “ARMY OF TWO” and “YEAH, ALRIGHT” you can hear how well the two of them clash on songs. After the buzz this tape received they turned right around and gave the fans another tape in July called “CHRISTMAS IN JULY”. Their newest release titled “DEGENERATES” dropped on November 19th and is a glimpse of what they have in store for 2025. Be on the lookout for their next tape “JIGG VS LEECE” coming soon…
Networking is no problem for them as you can go to any event in the state and you’re almost guaranteed to see them doing things like open mics and live performances. This has been key to these guys establishing themselves and their brand. Catch them in Rhode Island at Fete Music Hall on January 18th, 2025 for “RAGE IN RI: A 404 INVASION”. As someone who has seen them perform live, the energy they give off during their performance makes you a fan of them off the rip. They are just a small glimpse of what the Connecticut music scene has to offer and it’s great to see them holding the state down with consistent music.
