Hey Jay Shetty, Thank you for sharing this interview with Jay Sean...I confess I don't know Jay Sean! But I love his journey. As I listened I kept saying "WHAT???" it sounds like me expressed in ways i've never quite encountered.!!! Love your Indian culture -- I'm an anomoly --not sure where I belong ... I danced with Matthew Mcconaughey (he was with Sandra Bullock) in Jackson Hole Wyoming during the holidays decades ago!!! Jay said"He has a secret dream"...that's my father & his spirit lives in me as a small girl from a town of 200 ppl in Kansas. My mom heard my name in her spirit when she was pregnant hanging clothes & my father was at war. I have lived my life authentically as I challenged my boundaries in the big city of L.A. when no one's looking. My parents & my upbringing instilled in me a deep spiritual foundation birthed in me in the innocent fields of the wheatfields in Kansas which my grandfather farmed. I became a sought after designer to the 1 percent in Jackson Hole after EVERYONETOLD ME MY DREAMWAS IMPOSSIBLE. I dressed the elite without college degrees & have gone on to begin oil paintings that sell out & my audience is waiting for me to catch up. Jay, your story put into words so many ways to express my own journey. Sense of humor is #1 my friend. I've saved a major equine champion from euthanasia standing in defiance against a class full of veterinarian future teachers because my love was that strong.I have survived tornados that devastated land around me & destroyed a Drivein theatre. Most importantly I want to express that discrimination & prejudices are TAUGHT. This cowgirl from the mountains of Wyoming continues to seek to become more for the people of the world within the context of who i am & what I know...

it's a treat getting to know him more like this ❤

As a south Asian from the Uk I grew up seeing Jay on TV and had the pleasure of seeing him on stage performing in my hometown at the Bradford Asian Mela on black hill, it was 2005 or 6. Will never forget that such a class act! The crowd was mad but his stage presence was heartwarming and I couldn’t look away! I was so proud when he broke the states and people in America were banging his tunes. Jay Sean you are a legend and inspiration to the Asian community in England. Much respect bro !

This conversation is so beautiful and inspiring. Thank you, Jay and Jay!

Such a lovely interview Jay is so talented! Lovely to see him again. So honest

This interview is so refreshing 🙏🏽💯💯💯 Thank you Gentleman I needed this❤

One of my favourite episodes easily, such an honest and earnest conversation. Super inspiring thank you!

Jay Sean… down 2009 was the best of the best of dj earworm remix ❤❤❤

Really wish to watch his live concert in the future, love u Jay ❤

loved this conversation! please have more artist on who talk about the industry! appreciate both of you!

Love jay sean from day one Still one of the best DAYS OF MY LIFE when I got my "eyes on you" single signed by jay at hmv Uxbridge. #2point9

Jay not just has a great voice but also an intellectual and a down to earth human being.

I love this!! It spoke to my spirit!! Let's get it done!!!

This is an excellent interview. It's true...Indians inherently are hardest working people and they belive and value higher education....anywhere they go they contribute to economy instead of relying on government for handouts.. Ageism is a problem in every industry.

Jay Sean is and always has been the real deal. I listened to him from the earliest days and wished him all the success. Still listen to and love his songs. Big props to you brother 👍

Love u jay sean!!! Took me down memory lane

Thank you Jay for this interview it's long overdue ,I couldn't wait to watch this.❤

INCREDIBLE, love seeing this side of Jay

I absolutely loved this podcast. Wish it was a lot longer, I have always followed both you and you both are a huge inspiration. Keep up all the great work you guys a doing

Jay Sean is absolutely amazing. I remember when I was younger I saw his video "Dance with You" on one of my Indian Hangama music video DVDs. I was like damn that guy is amazing and I was totally digging it for months and months. I'm in America so no one knew what the hell I was listening to. Then years later to see Jay Sean appear in songs with American artist was mind blowing to me. I was so proud to see an Indian person make it in the music world here in America. Plus with his style and twist, the world needed that. Thank you Jay Sean for being who you are making this world a better place one lyric at a time. Music is a huge part of my life, without it I don't know what I would do. Jay Shetty, you always make my world better. Thank you always for the amazing work that you do.

his song Down was the first for a UK solo artist to make it or debut at Number 1 on Billboard, if I am not mistaken.

He was an icon FOR REALL!! He looks the same too!! 😩🔥

Wow thank you for this episode. Incredibly inspirational.

The RnB king Jay Sean❤❤❤❤

Having performed with Jay Sean numerous times back in the day, I can honestly say the way he comes across in this video is how he is in real life - genuine, talented and humble. Good to see him still positive and pushing forward.

Me Against Myself is a certified classic. Jay Sean is a legend...

I sense you were fortunate enough to have a family that invested & believed in you...that's rare & its a powerful gift. Regardless, you're a champion bro! Bravo !!! You're AWESOME AND AUTHENTIC-- YOU'RE MY SUPERHERO!!! WISE❤

Jay and Jay are amazing! Loved getting to know Jay Sean more

On matters social media; those who matter don't care, and those who care don't matter 😊.

2004, im a 4th grader walking into the school library with the rest of my class and this cool kid picks up some magazine featuring Jay Sean on the cover, "south-asian breakthrough artist" ir something and the kid says "the prince, my man!!" And i look at the cover and i realize its Jay Sean, the guy my brother and sister have been listening to lately in the car almost every other day. He was such a sensation and it was the hype that pulled me in but when i did listen to Jay, i fell in love with hisusi , style, composition, the vocals, 2-3 years later and I was starting to want to sing because of him... I have loved R&B and im grateful HE has been my role model growing up, still is in sooo many ways. You're a legend and youre a legacy artist, especially for all the South Asians

Great to see.Jay achieving his goals n dreams and bringing light to our Indian community. I lived near him. Hounslow .Blessed Love brother keep it up....

My favourite speaker Jay genius l love his speech very much.

I have been thinking of Jay Sean forreal … excited to see what he’s been up to !

I enjoyed this interview so much. I was 16 when the Dance with you track was released in 2003. It was very interesting listening to his journey and influences in his music.

He is a great artist with a voice like velvet. As someone who has always admired his interpretation of songs, I want to say that I love him very much.

I'm a 27 year old american girl that grew up listening to Jay Sean and literally still bumps his songs.. and was shocked to see this podcast episode and learn what an amazing person he is and his inspiring story. I'm in awe!

man i miss jay sean in more songs - i mean his voice is just so good in r&b - plus on top he got all his businesses going on - so inspirational

Always loved jay sean 🙌🏼❤ “Ride it” is still on my playlist to this very day… (big fan) im so happy u shared the back story to that song… thank u jay ❤ must love and stay blessed always ❤

Loved this, watched from start to finish for the first time. I blame nostalgia for Jay Sean.

At 16:00 mins Jay talks about exactly how I felt when I saw him come to the big stage. Felt so proud that there was a Desi rapper, one of us up there. He paved the road for what we see now. Will always have a lot of respect for Jay. 🙌

Thank you for this podcast, there is a lot that resonates with me! you are both very inspiring me!

Jay Sean my Favourite. Take love Bro🖤

He was brilliant and a victim of racism. Why wasn’t he on X factor as a guest judge or performer during his hit era? or on mainstream UK media as a hit in America? He was amazing but the white UK media just wasn’t having it. Great interview

Good to see Jay Sean. I actually became close to him because of his song "My Eyes on You"

I ❤ the two Jays. I love his moment when he was in the mosh pit watching Usher, thinking of we love this music and buy this music and get this music, why can’t I make this music? GENIUS. I feel the SAME way about myself at this moment as an actress. INSPIRING 💫🔥🙏🏽🎈🎶

Please do a video about emotional hunger and it's remedies. It will be more helpful ❤

Loved this episode ❤

Loved this podcast ❤

graduated with a degree in fine arts. I thought I was the only one who thought like what Jay Sean discussed in 6:00 its "freeing" 😶‍🌫 Happy New Year indeed💫

6:32 so glad to hear a person of colour actually understanding it from the parents POV. So fed up with POC constantly putting their own culture/traditions down, that's not to say culture/tradition don't bring their own troubles. It's extremely rare for a coloured person saying actually, do you know what my mum and dad are right to encourage me to have plan b.

Miss your song a lot jaysean

this is sick, was listening to ride it remix before!

I knew of him through VIVA tv ,German TV channel I was a teen ,and it drove us crazy at home that this song ,totally in English with that l Indian bridge and the smooth mix of both cultures in the song was so good. His music before entering the US market were a lot better in my opinion. What he did in the US was different ,and you could tell it was not so natural of him. I hope to see something new of that old style of his. And I love the parallelism between his own journey and Rocky, It was interesting how the analysis of the film saga can also describe the life of many artists in different fields too!

Love so much what you do Jay, this was a great episode. Sorry for the lame question, but I need to know the name/paint color of those walls hahaha.

OH MY SEAN❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Juggy d comes to mind 😮

Nice to watch people who were lucky with parents, my father didn't teach me anyhing, and still walks proudly that he dosn't realy give a sh* but to give me some portion of negativity.

Legend because of him you see so many uk artists Charting now

Big dreamy bro.I liked this bro

Subbed to you. I was told about you by mike who used to cut your hair. Told him i would say hi 🌹❤️👋🏻

I still listen to that album.. down down dowwwnnnnnn

Proud of you 🇧🇩

Very interesting 🎉 used to love his music!!

Zack Knight is of Pakistani and African origin mate

The only thing is that Jay Shetty should let the guest talk more, Jay Sean’s stories were so interesting and Shetty kept cutting him off or changing the tone of the conversation.

Great stuff!

The Mistress part 1, My Own Way and All or Nothing are some of the best albums ever made by any artist imho. Jay’s music up until around the tune “Don’t give up on me” (which itself was a banger) was absolutely amazing. Ironically though his music after that tune has been pretty poor. I can only imagine he’s lost some of his big producers (Jeremy/Alan Sampson?). Needs to go back to the Jay that he was for the majority of his career- just not the one putting out pretty dire music like his last tune To hi To or whatever it’s called.

JaySean is so selfaware

I still got my eyes on you its been 18 years

Jay Sean being signed to Young Money was a big flex if you were brown in school 2007 to 2010

Why I didn’t know Jay Sean was Indian.

This should be viewed way more then it has been.

Jay & Jay ...LOL Nicee talk:D

Lord jay sean ❤❤❤

This man was my childhood - the only Asian brudda around ☝🏼

Weird that he talks about ‘down’ like it was so great. I think ‘maybe’ was a classic

jay your sis also shud join ur pod, her views with urs will b more insterting.

The fact he hasn’t mentioned Craig David is bugging me. He’s clearly a fan

wowww the ride it storyyyy

Big Up Jay Sean,Rishi and Juggy Combo Just like my favourite kfc 🍗 😂
