Ashthon Jones Unleashes Raw Emotion with Powerful New Single “Hunting Season”

Ashthon Jones, the Nashville-born, Atlanta-based powerhouse behind Songbird Recordz, is back with her most personal and vulnerable track to date, “Hunting Season.” Produced by Roberto Fusco Di Maso, the single dives deep into a chapter of Ashthons life that was marked by pain and resilience. Written during a dark and abusive period in her past, the song served as a lifeline before it became a full fledged release. With lyrics like “I’m shooting till my gun smokes just like cigarettes,” Ashthon paints a vivid picture of survival and defiance, making “Hunting Season” a fierce testament to healing and reclaiming power.

Though she’s already achieved impressive milestones, including her single “Pop Out” reaching the top 8 on both US and UK charts and becoming the first Black woman in Nashville to secure a songwriting publishing deal, “Hunting Season” represents a different side of Ashthon Jones. It’s not just about chart success; it’s about vulnerability and authenticity. Her decade-plus career, which has included sharing the stage with Beyoncé, TLC, Fantasia, Ashanti, and more, has shaped her into a seasoned artist unafraid to push boundaries. This new single embodies that fearlessness, bringing her raw storytelling to the forefront while showcasing her signature vocal strength.

Beyond the music, she is building an empire rooted in artistry and opportunity. With plans in Honduras to create a concert venue that bridges artists from the U.S. and abroad, she’s determined to create new pathways for talent while expanding her own global footprint. But for now, “Hunting Season” marks a pivotal moment, a release of a long held song and a statement of resilience. And with her follow-up single “IDGAF” dropping on Halloween alongside its music video, it’s clear Ashthon Jones is entering a bold new chapter of her career.

JL. Cutt - O Let’s Do It

Hempstead NY native JL.Cutt began writing music at the very young age of 10, but didn’t release his first single until 2018 at age 16. Back then he went by the name Nolimit.Jc & the music wasn’t consistent. It wasn’t until Oct of 2022 when he decided it was time for a rebrand. Changing his name was just the first step JL would then go on to consistently releasing music, doing shows, dropping merch, hosting showcases himself, doing music videos, & truly began to give the music his all
