"Music is what feeling sounds like." Ashlee "Cashlee Jay" Johnson, is a rapper, singer, and songwriter. Born in Boston on December 9th 1990, Cashlee Jay was born right into rap music. At the young age of eight, Cashlee Jay jumped write into expressing herself through words. Some of her greatest influences at that age were, Tupac, Biggie, Salt n Pepa, Mc Lyte, Queen Latifah, KRS One, etc. On May 6th 2010, Cashlee Jay will be performing at "The Spot". This Event is a benefit concert for a shelter for Homeless and Battered Women called, "Rosie's Place." The Tix are only 5 dollars, and all proceeds will be going to Rosie's Place. Also this year, Cashlee Jay will be releasing her mixtape, as well as a Fresh Kids United Street Team Mixtape. Also, possible shows at ICA Boston, Middle east upstairs, Pa's Lounge, and All Asia. The New "Oh Let's Do it" Remix will be released very soon, Cashlee says, and will be debuted at the performance on May 6th, by Cashlee and the Members of the Fresh Kids United Street Team, J.R. and Calvin. "F.K.U Music, it's the movement. Oh Let's Do it!" -Cashlee Jay. Saying her life was hard and that she "grinds harder" would be cliche, but she does and it was. Cashlee lost her mom at the young age of Eleven to AIDS, and also has lost many friends due to gang and youth violence in the past. Cashlee Jay is ready to takeover, and is willing to do whatever it takes to bring something positive out of Boston Massachusetts. "Boston loves the hell out of everyone elses hip-hop, but when it comes to something out of Boston, we turn up our noses immediately. I just want to embrace what Boston is. It's a beautiful city and there are so many talented recording artists out here. We just have to put our minds on something else, rather than holding guns and hanging out in gangs. That doesn't make you cool. Music is a good way to express that. Thats what music is to me. A confidante. Or as Melissa Etheridge said, My Safehaven." - Ashlee "Cashlee Jay" Johnson
