J. Anomaly is an independent hip-hop/rap artist from New Haven, CT, who started making music in 2018. He releases music through his own independent record label, Elm to Ivy Records LLC. Anomaly offers a complete variety when it comes to musical style. Some of his work would best be categorized as alternative hip-hop/rap, while the rest of his work would better be categorized as conscious hip-hop. Anomaly’s creative motive is the very reason for this: Create music with a message! With this motive in mind, he unapologetically, seamlessly, and open-mindedly crosses between musical styles in his work.
What exactly separates J. Anomaly from the other rising artists of this generation? The answer is simple: In an era almost entirely rooted in virality and gimmicks, Anomaly is passionately holding on to the lost art of the album. More specifically, and likely due to his citing of acts such as Kendrick Lamar and J. Cole as inspirations, J. Anomaly aspires to keep the concept album (i.e., albums with songs that all come together to tell a complete story) in style. His latest full-length release, A Moment Lost to Find Blue, is a 14-track concept album that explores themes such as spirituality, mental health, existentialism, and afrofuturism. Anomaly hopes to soon follow up his 2021 work with yet another substantive and full-length concept album in the near future.
