Tony: If you walk into a comedy club – if you walk into a comedy club, just by virtue of being inside a comedy club, you’re going to hear something that might offend your sensibilities as far as your race, your religion, your personal background, your financial status, your sexual preference, your sexual orientation, your height, your weight, your color – don’t come in the comedy club if you don’t want to hear that!

Fresh off a magnetic live performance at the Hard Rock Café Times Square, rising pop artist and fashion trailblazer Jittaun unveils her newest single “Chase” – a high-energy track that embodies ambition, movement and fearless individuality.

The New York-born New Jersey raised singer-songwriter is not just making music –– she’s creating a world where sound, style, and self-expression collide. On “Chase,” Jittaun rides pulsing beats and soaring melodies to deliver a message that feels tailor-made for today’s generation: Don’t Just dream-run toward it. The track is now streaming on all platform, including Apple Music.

At her recent Hard Rock Cafe performance, Jittaun proved she’s more than just a voice – chess’s a force. Blending bold vocals, commanding stage presence and a keen fashion sense, she left audiences spellbound and craving for more.

Fusing Pop with notes of Rock, R&B, HIP-HOP and Afrobeats, Jittaun’s artistry defies easy categorization- much like her inspiration: think the soul of James Brown, the electricity of Prince, the fearlessness of Grace Jones, and the genre-bending spirit of David Bowie. Yet it’s her own modern, audacious vision that sets her apart: a Gen-z powerhouse unafraid to mix glamour with grit.

Already gaining traction among fashion insiders, Jittaun’s style is an extension of her music – edgy, expressive, and unapologetically her. Whether she’s in couture or street wear, she’s rewriting the rules of Pop stardom with overlook and every beat.

With “Chase”leading the way and more music and visuals on the horizon, Jittaun is not just chasing dreams – she’s catching them, one electrifying step at time.
