Target Talk - “Brewed To Perfection” featuring Jahn Dough

From an early age, California native Jahn Dough found joy and understanding within music. Born Devin Pahrms, Jahn Dough remembers vibing to music of all genres, from both west and east coast hip hop to jazz and blues. His early hip hop influences include Spice 1, Xhibit, MC Eiht, DJ Quik, Biggie, and E-40w to name a few.

Specifically, Jahn Dough credits his eclectic taste to the influence of his older brother, Darnell, who still is heavily involved in Jahn Dough’s life and music career. They would listen to hip hop from all eras while driving around in the car, windows down – it was in this environment that Jahn Dough began rapping, memorizing Dr. Dre’s “2001” from top to bottom.

In 2007, Jahn Dough moved to Texas. Once here, he began to grow an appreciation for southern music in artists like OutKast, 36 Mafia and UGK.

With influences from all over the country, and across all eras, Jahn Dough began experimenting with his own sound in early junior high through writing music. He recorded his first mix tape as a senior in high school. Throughout college, he continued writing and recording, developing and honing his writing ability and sound.
