Get Familiar with Chester French- Jacques Jams Vol. 1: Endurance

Chester French & Clinton Sparks prepare the release of a musical masterpiece full of endurance with assistance from Diddy, Pharrell, Jermaine Dupri and more at www.chesterfrench.com/mixtape.

On April 21st Chester French will release their debut album Love The Future (Star Trak/Interscope Records), and in preparation for that event they've decided to treat their current and future supporters to a FREE ALBUM of brand new exclusive records that will tell the Chester French story and leave no doubt that the world must GET FAMILIAR with the greatest new group of 2009.

For the past two months Chester French has been working with Clinton Sparks, one of the world's hottest DJ's/producers, on a full-length mixtape called: Jacques Jams, Vol. 1: Endurance. With nothing but a handful of instruments and some weightlifting equipment, D.A. and Max of Chester French holed up in the woods of Western Massachusetts and created a collection of original tracks, all written, arranged, produced, and engineered by the duo.

Unlike their upcoming album, which includes no guest artists, Jacques James, Vol. 1: Endurance features collaborations with an unprecedented roster of eclectic artists, including Diddy, Jermaine Dupri, Pharrell, Janelle Monáe, Bun B, Talib Kweli, The Clipse, Cassie, Solange, and more. Together, Chester French, Clinton Sparks, and this galaxy of superstars will paint an epic picture of Endurance and Normalcy available for download at www.chesterfrench.com/mixtape. By the end, you will truly understand that Chester French and Clinton Sparks are just three totally normal guys doing totally normal things.

Jacques Jams, Vol. 1: Endurance is unlike a traditional mix-tape wherein a DJ chops up a bunch of new records and throws them on a CD. Clinton Sparks once again has taken mixtapes to a new level complete with skits and interludes that humorously get you familiar with Chester French's story, from Max and D.A.'s freshman year at Harvard to their signing with Star Trak/Interscope records after hip-hop heavyweights like Kanye West competed to sign them in one of the biggest bidding wars in music industry history.

So don't miss out on this exciting and amazing FREE ALBUM available April 6th from three totally normal guys that do totally normal things, available at www.chesterfrench.com/mixtape, www.clintonsparks.com and www.newmusiccartel.com. Also log onto these sites to see behind the scenes footage of studio sessions, photos, the band's performance with Paris Hilton & Clinton Sparks and the mixtape's cover shoot at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas.
