Jamar Jackson was born and raised in the South, where the sounds of soul, gospel, and the rhythm of spoken word left a lasting mark on his spirit. That early exposure led to a deep love for music and poetry-two things that continue to shape his voice as a writer. For over 15 years, Jamar has poured that passion into his work, focusing especially on old school artists who've stood the test of time. More recently, he's been exploring the blues and jazz scenes, uncovering the richness of genres that speak directly to the soul.

Over the years, Jamar has written for numerous blogs and platforms, building a trusted name through consistency and care. His journey found new footing when he became the Senior Music Writer at ThyBlackMan.com, a site where his love for the arts and culture finally found a permanent home. His work has been featured on major outlets like MSN News and Google News, helping him reach a wider audience of readers who value honest, thoughtful commentary rooted in experience and cultural pride.

Though poetry remains a core part of his writing identity, Jamar is excited to branch out even further into the literary world. He sees tremendous value in spotlighting talented voices across all genres-fiction, memoir, essays, and more.
