l once heard ska described as "what plays thru the proletariat's head when they realize that despite their identity, they're cogs in the capitalist machine, and organizing their labor power while dismantling systemic oppression is the only path toward liberation" and nothing is more accurate

8 MINUTES LATE BUT BOTHERED / UNBOTHERED TURNED 3 YEARS OLD!!!

It means the world the amount of support I have received with the JER music! To everyone who’s listened to bothered / unbothered, who grabbed a record or added these songs to your playlists. A big thank you to everybody 🥹🙏🏾
Fish eye photo JER holding the vinyl sleeve for bothered / unbothered. A hand is on the left holding the record. The art on the record are 2 busts of JER. The bust to the left has spirals in the glasses and a black box + scribble over the mouth. The bust to the right is upside down and is looking into the distance with a blank expression. The text bothered wraps around the bust to the left, and upside down text that reads unbothered wraps around the upside down bust to the right. In the center reads JER in red text Plants are in the background of the image. Fish eye photo JER holding the back of the vinyl sleeve for bothered / unbothered. A hand is on the left holding the record sleeve. The art on the back features a box with a pattern of shapes within it. Green and red triangles on the left and right stick out of the box. On top a doodle of JERs head peaks over with the dizzy eyes and lighting bolts coming from their head. Under the box, an upside down doodle peeks with a giddy look. Within the middle, there’s a list of the tracks that read 1. BOTHERED 2. You got yr ***** card revoked 3. Clout chasers! 4. Cold Truth 5. Decolonzie yr mind 6. Garden of understanding 7. Maybe 8. You can get it if you really want 9. Nobody can dull my sparkle 10. UNBOTHERED Plants are in the background of the image. 2 images sit over a black graphic with white geometric shapes and lines. The image to the top is a photo of the mint green JER vinyl. The needle is sitting on the record. The label on the vinyl is black and reads BOTHERED followed by JER underneath the center and the bad time records logo (an illustration of a skull with the words bad time wrapped over and records underneath Text sits on a black graphic with triangles and lines in each corner. The text reads On May 27th, 2022, i released my debut as asolo musician. As an artist, this was a monumental step.I spent years aiding various other bands, artists, and individuals in their cratt, but the JER music allowed me to craft music from my own heart with my own voice. I was tinally creating art that reflects who I am and my experiences. I can not begin to properly express the amount of gratitude I have for y'all who have supported my art. Every person who has played my music on streaming, or spun it on your record player. Every person who came out to a show to help curäte the experience of each and every live show. Every person who cares about the words and notes i've curatedt to express my ideas. I appreciate you al more than you could ever know. A big thank you for 3 years of support. -JER
