He is currently in the process of writing and producing his own music with an eye toward much success within the mainstream of the Music industry.
With his 90’s and millennium R&B moves and his braided hair vibe, LJ Ugarte’s debut single, wore its old school on its sleeve. In the course of two singles, LJ has vaulted from wanting to re-create the mood of a vintage soul to wanting to make his own combination of Maxwell and Eric Benet These two singles mark the return of the retro-soul movement that began taking shape several years ago.
LJ is aiming to return the soul to a headier, more opulent era. Some new Hip Hop and R&B artist revel in a sometimes brazen, sometimes vulgar fusion of hip-hop and old-school-soul pleading.
