Joshua Harris (11) is not only a varsity basketball player, but is a talented upcoming artist.
Harris, under the name of JX Harris, released a feature with another Dana Hills Dolphin, Zach Erdosi (11), under the name of Z@E, in February of 2022.
The song, “Never Know,” is a three minute, five second long banger, which is the result of clever producing and vocal work by Z@E and vocals by JX Harris.
In an interview with JX Harris, when asked about what inspired him to start a musical career, JX responded with, “What inspired me to start a musical career, was actually Z@E music.”
The legendary collab between the two artists was started by Z@E reaching out, and JX delivering back. The two made the masterpiece in Z@E’s recording studio at his house.
However, when asked if JX would ever work with Z@E again, JX remarked, “H*ll No!”, claiming that Z@E over-edited his voice.
He also claims that Z@E put more autotune over his voice in the released version of the song than the alleged final version of the song.
JX Harris additionally claimed that as far as the writing of his verse goes, “The majority of the bars were written by him [Z@E].”
JX Harris has even more music on his youtube account.
The youtube channel is named J.A.H.27, and is a growing account, featuring JX Harris’s favorite songs he released.
One of the most streamed songs, “DeRozan,” featuring A.B. Loo, is a must hear and has a very intriguing beat.
JX’s favorite song he has made to date is the song “TIME,” which is a melodic rap song with a beat from Shadxw, a youtube composer.
JX shared that the meaning of the song “TIME is about a relationship, and the struggles of everything that comes with a relationship; the good and the bad. It’s about remembering the memories you made and wishing you could go back. Hence the title, ‘Time,’ wishing you still had time left with that person. But ultimately you move on with ‘Time’ and feelings fade away.”
All these songs, and the feature with Z@E were made in Harris’ freshman year at Dana Hills High School, between twenty twenty-one to twenty twenty-two.
Even though it’s been a while since JX Harris has released music, Joshua Harris shares that he will make more songs, and to “Stay tuned.
