"With creative verses rooted in technical brilliance, Detroit emcee Elzhi has attained the highest level of lyrical mastery. Now 15 years into an inspired solo career, the former Slum Village member has ramped up his output lately, joining forces with producers Georgia Anne Muldrow, Oh No, and JR Swiftz for three acclaimed albums in the 2020s. Now, Elzhi is reuniting with famed North Carolina producer Khrysis as the duo Jericho Jackson, revisiting the chemistry that resulted in a celebrated 2018 joint album. After emerging in the Justus League collective during the rise iconic group Little Brother, Khrysis has gone on to work with hip-hop royalty like Sean Price, Black Thought, Mac Miller, JID, Conway, Rapsody, Talib Kweli, Redman, and many more. Elzhi and Khrysis are launching the new era of Jericho Jackson with the flawless EP I Am Him, channeling the spirit of vintage maxi-singles. 'For me, the maxi-single represents a time when hip-hop was unapologetically raw and underground,' Elzhi explains. 'Some of my favorite artists used the format to showcase remixes, freestyles, and loose tracks that might not have fit the sound of an album. This is our way of restoring that feeling.' An exciting burst of new music from two undeniable talents, the project features appearances by Domo Genesis and Oh No."
