01.1.12 - POCKETLESS SOULS
Download Jekob's latest FREE album "Pocketless Souls". This statement sums up the content of the record. "We are all spiritual beings who all too often get caught up in the rat race of life. It is an encouragement to prioritize your life around the reality that we can take nothing we acquire here with us into the afterlife. The most important thing we can do with our time here is to truly make it worthwhile & passionately spread the Good News every chance we get."

Here's what some people are saying.
“ Overall, I give this album 4.5/5. Jekob never makes less than classic and quality tracks, even when he isn’t being serious. The production is great. As I spoke on the last review, I compared Jekob to Drake. On this album, he clearly surpasses Drake’s social content, yet he keeps that fun and confident sound that Drake has. On the flip side, I wish I could have heard more of Jekob singing. He teases the fans by just singing on the hooks with this album. Once again, Jekob really stepped his bars up lyrically. He continued to stay on the ”pocketless souls” theme and reached places that most christian artists are afraid to even travel to. Jekob is truly hip hop and beyond. This album is a classic on all aspects and should be something to put into your pocket. Spread the soup. - Paradoxparables ”
“ Pocketless Souls.........album straight fire, definitely one of the most slept on of 2011. ”
“ This is one of the best albums I've heard in years. Jekob is one of the most dynamic writers, rappers, singers & producers in the music industry today. He continues to deliver quality & excellence. I can't wait for the new record. ”
