BIG JD Talks The Release Of His Debut Album "Perfect Timing"
By: Adonis Armstrong
Mississippi rapper, BIG JD, dropped his debut album titled Perfect Timing! The title depicts who BIG JD is becoming as an artist, a hard worker, as he is doing everything under the sun to rise in the rap game and grow as an artist.
“I’m most often recognized for my music, but I consider myself an aspiring creative across all mediums. I’m a native of Jackson, Mississippi where I currently live and attend Jackson State University. Since I can remember, I’ve carried a love and interest in music that shaped the life I’ve made for myself and drives me to get up everyday and make the most of the opportunities I’ve been granted.”

BIG JD opens up about changing career goals after injuries plagued him from pursuing a football career.
“It was all a matter of timing. Playing football for Jackson State University was a dream I’ve had since a kid, just like pursuing my career in music. Unfortunately during my time playing college football, I endured injuries that forced me to reconsider football as a long term career. The platform I made for myself as an athlete laid the perfect slate to start my journey into music, and when the opportunity presented itself, I took it without a second thought. ”
The album features 9 tracks with 1 solo feature from another rising artist, Ant200. Our favorite track is “Sacrifices” where he opens up about his life of trails and tribulations.

“The title of the album “Perfect Timing” it came to me in a period of time where I was focused on self-reevaluation and developing as an artist and person.”
His previous projects, two EP’s Big Tape and Big Tape II, showed that BIG JD is unquestionably an artist that should be on everyone’s radar but this project shows his growth in production as well as lyrically.
“I first started recording in October 2021, so the early months of 2022 saw me taking the necessary steps to build a credible image and successful career. Initially, Perfect Timing was just a single that I released entailing the side of success most people don’t see: the work. But the reiteration in advice to keep faith and consistently work towards my goal over time until the fruits of my labor are reaped led me to curating a 9-song project followed by another 9-song deluxe version, both titled “Perfect Timing”. My belief is that by ensuring your actions align with your goals and keeping a positive attitude and work ethic, everything you dream of in life will come to you when the timing is right.”
Even with the release of this album, BIG JD has already dropped a deluxe and planning to release more content!
“The Deluxe version to my project “Perfect Timing” released in November and is available on all streaming platforms now. I’m also currently pushing out accompanying visuals on YouTube for the tracks on the project. All of my new content can be found @1bigjd across all streaming and social media platforms.”
