Jerzee, whose given name is Sean Virgil, is a Montreal native who hopes to showcase his crossover appeal by integrating Hip Hop flows with a Rock musicality.

The rapper’s latest effort, “The Cypher,” co-opts DJ Snake & Lil Jon’s “Turn Down For What,” which is currently the #5 single on Billboard magazine’s “Hot 100” chart. “Turn Down For What” has been on the chart for 22 weeks as of June 4, 2014.

Jerzee says “The Cypher” serves a distinct purpose.
