Whether on the field or in the studio, MARJA'KIM simultaneously applies pure tenacity, diehard diligence, and endless talent to football and music. The New Jersey-born and raised rapper, singer, artist, and athlete is a dynamic force whose energy can’t be contained to one passion. Signed independently to his label We Neva Done Entertainment, he introduced the world to his style in 2022. He initially devoted most of his time to football. He excelled as a slot receiver and landed at Tennessee State University for a Division I college career. “When I’m on the field, every game has to be a breakout moment and my best game,” he notes. “It’s the same when I walk into the booth. It always has to be better than my last song. Sports and music are 100% similar. I work just as hard at rapping as I do football. I work out, come home, eat, sit down, and do music all night. This is my life.” Born Amar Gist, he grew up surrounded by music. He witnessed his uncle KayGee of GRAMMY® Award-winning hip-hop juggernaut Naughty By Nature on stage and in the studio and attended music video shoots for Jaheim (who his dad James “Pookie” Gist managed) from the stroller. Music was truly embedded in his identity before birth, and he naturally absorbed it. One day, a friend encouraged him to jump on a beat, and Amar unlocked his voice, coming full circle and accepting his creative destiny. His family caught wind of his talent and got behind him with his father Pookie, brother Asante’ Gist, and KayGee, among the producers. He carefully cultivated a signature sound, choosing the name MARJA'KIM in reference to his nickname “Mar” and his middle name “JAKIM”—comprised of the first two letters of his dad’s first name “James” and his mom’s first name “Kimberly.” The first official single, “Party N Da Hills” showcases his instinctual knack for a melody. “Those beats from back in the day talk to your soul and make you feel good, so I’m mixing those with what’s going on now. I can go hard or do melodies. It’s versatile.” MARJA'KIM asserts himself as a champion through and through and wants to motivate his generation to do the same. “I was told I couldn’t do both music and football, but I’m my own individual,” he leaves off. “Start your own trends and be yourself. If you want to do something, do it. Don’t be shy. Be yourself, believe in yourself, and don’t be afraid to take chances. Just do it all.” If you enjoyed this article, Join HBCU CONNECT today for similar content and opportunities via email! |
