Jay Worthy live history: g-funk
Jay Worthy is a prolific Canadian-American rapper, primarily known for his smooth, laid-back flow and his dedication to modern G-funk, channeling the essence of West Coast hip-hop with influences from old-school soul and funk. Worthy, who splits his time between Vancouver and Compton, has built a significant catalog since 2015, frequently collaborating with a wide array of artists and producers, including his work as one half of the duo LNDN DRGS with producer Sean House. His discography is rich with collaborative projects like "G-Worthy" with G Perico and Cardo (2017), "Fantasy Island" with The Alchemist (2017), "2 P'z in a Pod" with Larry June (2022), "Nothing Bigger Than The Program" with Roc Marciano (2023), and "Magic Hour" with Dām-Funk (2024), which is described as an out-and-out G-Funk album. In recent endeavors, Jay Worthy has been particularly active, releasing several projects in 2024 and 2025. These include "The Tonite Show Part 2" (2024), "Time After Time" with MadeInTYO (2024), and "Affiliated 2" (2024). A major development for the artist was the announcement and subsequent release of his debut solo album, "Once Upon a Time," a two-disc project with a plethora of features, including George Clinton, Ice-T, DJ Quik, and Terrace Martin, released in 2025. He also released "Once Upon a Time 2" in 2025. Furthermore, he was involved in the hip-hop collective "Meet the Whoops," performing with them at Kendrick Lamar's "The Pop Out: Ken & Friends" concert in Inglewood, California in June 2024, a project that is reportedly signed to a major label and entirely produced by Hit-Boy.
