Rapper Jesse Medina continues to pour his heart and soul into his music, putting out hard-
hitting tracks. The most recent is “No Ma’am” off an upcoming EP titled Extrasensory Modes of
Perception.
“No Ma’am” features Medina’s boy Q-Timer, who he has been playing music with for years.
They wrote the song together and put it to a beat by producer Barry Bones, who they both
worked with on Medina’s recent track “In My Head.”
While his first single was more about using trippy poetry describing the world of drug psychosis,
this one is a little more fun and playful with a focus on “chillin’ with his homies.”
“We went over to Barry’s lab and did it over his beat,” Medina said. “It was based off the show
‘Married With Children’ and Al Bundy’s little crew of homies. You know, it’s about looking out for
your bro, having guy time and just kind of talking shit.”
Medina admits there is some randomness to the song, and he and Q-Timer are just “spittin’.”
The inspiration for the bars kind of just came out of thin air.
“It’s really about the brotherhood,” Medina said. “It is kind of the camaraderie between me and
Q-Timer. It’s about sticking with your boys. You know, there are people in relationships, but you
can go out and kick it with your homies. I like the word play and like the beat a lot, and the hook
is hella dope to me. That kind of sums it up.”
Medina said the bars and the beat carry the lyrical flow. The beat has an element of intrigue to it
before the lyrics kick in.
Here they come
All my guns
My day ones
Like when you see me run
The story behind the beat is an interesting one. Jesse said there was initially another beat that
“No Ma’am” was written to. Somehow it went missing, and no matter how hard they looked, they
simply couldn’t find it. Sometimes that is just the way things go, and resiliency is key. While it
threw them off at first, Medina, Q-Timer and Barry Bones started from square one and put out
something to be proud of.
“Q found this beat and it was sounding hard,” Jesse said. “When I heard it, I knew it was a hella
sick beat. I love it, man. It’s beyond what I wanted it to be. This beat changed the delivery and
made it something else.”
He has heard solid feedback from his fans about his last track, “In My Head,” and with “No
Ma’am” that praise has only continued and increased. He said this is one for the friends and
fans alike.
“This is for the hip-hop heads.”
Extrasensory Modes of Perception has nine tracks and will be released next month. It is a mix of
different styles of hip-hop. Jesse said it is beyond labeling in a genre. Each track differs from the
next and will keep the listeners on their toes and on the edge of their seats in anticipation. While
there is a sense of randomness, he said there is also a method to the madness.
“If I hear something in my head, I’m just going to execute it, and there’s no telling what kind of
music will come from it,” he said. “I’m looking at the challenge and having fun with it every time.
But there is a theme — you can hear the hip-hop influences no matter what song it is.”
Jesse was born and raised in San Jose, and music is simply a massive part of his life. When he
hears music, lyrics will just flow through him, but sometimes he takes his time to make sure
everything is perfect. Medina thrives off using straight emotion with the beat.
He has influences that date back to music his mother would play like Prince, Rick James and
the Isley Brothers. Some of his current inspirations include groups like the Gorillaz, Freestyle
Fellowship, TDE, Gnarls Barkley, Deftones, Chelsea Grin and Portishead.
When he was just 10 years old, he started writing music. Through life experiences and his
inspirations, he has been able to create his own personal sound and touch.
Jesse is always working. His current projects are a three-song EP, called This Way Westward,
as well as an EP with unreleased songs called Nostalgia Nuggets.
“No Ma’am” is available on all platforms, and Extrasensory Modes of Perception is scheduled
for an August 3 release.
