“You can do anything you want if you set your mind to it.” Is it not easier said than done? Well, in this case persistence prevails. DJIG is a rap group consisting of three members, John Harris, Garrick Adamson, and Isaiah DuPree. Two of them are current students at our own Rowan University, John Harris and Garrick Adamson. John is a communications major, while Garrick is a physical health and education major who plays soccer for Rowan. What started out as a few rough tracks of verses and bars in their early high school years at Glassboro High School, has developed into something much more.
With a mix tape called “Pre-Game” circulating Rowan University, a second one is soon to follow. This group has an undeniable amount of talent and is finally starting to be recognized. NBA 2K 12, a popular video game, is featuring our very own DJIG in it, with an original song called “Now’s My Time.” A soundtrack that features other artists such as Eminem and Cee-Lo has left a spot open for DJIG.
“This is just the beginning, we’re going places and you’re gonna be seeing us around!” says John, who is ecstatic about the whole thing. You can check them out on Facebook, follow them on Twitter, and head to their website, www.djigmusic.com, but know when you see them floating around Rowan University’s main campus don’t be shy! Say hello because they love meeting people and making fans. DJIG is a rap group whose passion for music is starting to make its mark at Rowan University and on the video game world. Who knows what’s next for these very talented guys.
