(Isstories Editorial):- Los Angeles, California Jul 19, 2025 (Issuewire.com) – Rising artist Jay Q returns with a powerful new single, “If You,” a raw and melodic reflection on grief, betrayal, and emotional abandonment. Following the success of his debut project Pati3nce, the Los Angeles-born and Las Vegas-bred rapper and singer is setting a new toneone rooted in transparency, vulnerability, and depth.
At just 20 years old, Jay Q (real name Jason Allen Quinn Jr.) delivers an emotionally gripping performance in If You, asking the hard questions: “If you loved me, why weren’t you there?” The track explores the pain of losing loved ones and the heartbreak of watching people walk away during life’s darkest moments. Blending melodic rap and R&B, Jay Q’s storytelling captures the weight of real-life experiences with a voice that’s both poetic and powerful.
“This track is personal to me,” Jay Q shares. “It came from a place of betrayal and grief–losing people I loved and feeling like others didn’t step up when I needed them. I want listeners to know they’re not alone in those feelings.“

A former college football player turned full-time artist, Jay Q’s story is a testament to resilience. After a sports injury forced him off the field, he channeled his energy into music starting with BandLab recordings on his phone and eventually building his own home studio. His debut album Pati3nce introduced the world to his reflective lyricism, and If You pushes that emotional boundary even further.
If You is now available on all streaming platforms. Fans can also look forward to a larger project coming later this year, where Jay Q continues to explore themes of purpose, pain, and personal growth.
