	J-Dub is back! Rocking one of our official RapRise shirts, The Captain returns, with a cameo from the beautiful Tristin Mays, in the minimal yet flashy video for his lead single to ‘Insomnia’. “Back In This” can make you dance and make you think, all while telling you exactly who J-Dub is. A skill that has been all but lost on the new hip hop generation. It’s good to see him back on the Rise, and back in this bitch. Download the song here.
