Situated,” featuring Big K.R.I.T. and Sauce Walka, serves as the lead single and video for Ground Level. The track is now available on digital streaming platforms, with the accompanying video accessible online.

Ground Level highlights Skeese’s artistic evolution, boasting collaborations with notable artists such as Dave East, Jay Worthy, Project Pat, Smoke DZA, Statik Selektah, Che Noir, Lloyd, and Ski Beatz, among others.

Reflecting on the album, Skeese states, “Ground Level represents my progression from the basement to building upon the foundation I’ve laid over the past three years. This includes my Drumwork debut Abolished Uncertainties (2023) and my collaboration with Conway The Machine, Pain Provided Profit. I’m now exploring how much higher I can climb from this first floor.”

He adds, “The Ground Level mindset is about overcoming challenges and reaching new heights while staying grounded. It’s a reminder that there are always new levels to achieve, regardless of your field—whether you’re a medical student, an NFL prospect, or a Dunkin Donuts manager.”

With Ground Level, Jae Skeese continues to solidify his place in hip-hop culture, elevating his status one step at a time.
