JMSN - Alone

In 2010, Detroit native Christian Berishaj signed to Universal Motown Records under the name Christian TV. With the label behind him, Berishaj was becoming known for his multiple talents as a singer, producer, engineer and musician. However, somewhere in between then and now, he decided a change in direction was due. While Christian TV is an artist with numerous electro-driven pop songs up online, the music of Berishaj’s new moniker, JMSN, is somewhat of an antithesis to his other self. With its dark, brooding sound equipped with high-pitched vocals and drug references, JMSN’s new self-produced and -mixed song, “Alone,” is certainly not a radio-friendly jam. The track and its accompanying video are, however, sparking a mixed bag of love and debate for alleged similarities to two of 2011’s most popular new crooners: The Weeknd and Frank Ocean. What do you think; does the song sound too much like The Weeknd? How about the video; does it remind you of the visuals to Frank Ocean’s breakout single, “Novacane?” Does it even matter? Leave your thoughts below.
