Jared Evan has premiered the video for his single “In Love With You.” The explosive track that closed an episode of Entourage will appear on Jared’s Interscope Records debut, Fourth Chapter. “In Love With You” embodies the intoxicating rock/rap/pop blend heard on the album which is executive produced by Polow Da Don and Jimmy Douglass.

“To me it carries an angry tone, like I’m mad at you right now, but I still love you,” says Jared, whose passion for rock music shines through on the track.

I had the chance to ask Jared some questions about things such as his interest in music, what inspires him, and some of the goals he has lined out for himself. You can read about that below.

When did you first realize you had an interest in music and what sparked that interest?

I’m told by my parents that I have always been drawn to music, ever since I was an infant… it’s just been in me I guess. Thinking back on it, there is nothing really that sparked it, I just innately was always drawn to sound.

What drives and inspires you to do what you love?

The thing that drives/inspires me to do what I love the most is the feeling that I get after pouring all my emotion out on record. I know this may sound cliche, but creating music is almost like a form of therapy for me and when I make it, there is no better feeling in the end.

How did you get started in the music industry?

I’ve always been around music as far back as I can remember, but I had these two music videos that I shot with Rik Cordero. During the time I shot these videos, Rik and my manager Matt Graham were working together to help me take my music career further. We shot a music video for a song I wrote called “Frozen” and Matt and Rik were able to circulate it to several major record labels who then started reaching out to me. Eventually, I just felt so comfortable with Polow and the Interscope team that we locked in there. From there I flew down to Miami to start working with Jimmy Douglass and ill Factor and all we did was spend day and night in the studio working and naturally evolving my sound. It’s been a real blessing.

Do you find it easy to sing and perform? Does it come naturally for you?

I think with any job, nothing comes that easy, but I certainly will say that from a musical standpoint what I do does in fact come very naturally. All it takes is motivation after that.

Besides music, what are some of your favorite things to do?

That’s hard to say….music is really all I’m interested in (laughs), although I do love observing and appreciating different artistic mediums like film, fashion or anything creative really.

If you had the chance to work or record with anyone, who would you choose?

Tough one, but I’d have to go with Anthony Kiedis.

How would you describe the sound of your music?

I would describe the sound of my music as cross-over Hip Hop, Rock, Grunge and Soul.

How do you feel that you’re different from other artists in your genre?

Well, I’m not sure what genre I am even categorized in, but I can confidently say that what I’m doing sounds very different from anyone in music right now.

What are some of your long-term and short-term goals you have lined out for yourself?

I aim to have a musical voice, I just want people to feel something after they hear my music! If I can contribute my voice to the world, then all of my goals have been achieved!

Was there ever a time you felt like giving up on your way to where you are now?

There have certainly been times where things didn’t go perfectly and that will always happen, but never have I once questioned nor considered giving up as an option. This is all I do and I love it.
