JUTAUN (pronounced zha-táwn) is a genre-defying band that began as a multi-cultural R&B male vocal group of high school friends from the Williamstown section of Monroe Township, Gloucester County, New Jersey. Brothers Jake and James Evans teamed with former talent show competitors Anthony "Brian" Lewis, Peter Garcia and Samoeun Cheng in the Spring of 1999. The group's vocal coach and mentor was the father of Jake and James, musician Jake Evans, Jr. who incorporated their sound with influences of classic R&B acts like The Temptations, Take 6, and Earth, Wind & Fire. In 2014, Jake, James, and Samoeun recruited current members Stephen Honsberger, Carter Fox, and Butch Serianni.
JUTAUN performed at talent shows and shopping malls in the Philadelphia and South Jersey area. In 2003 the group members quit their day jobs to pursue music full time. They signed with friend and manager David Still and formed Climax Entertainment still based in Camden, Nj. The group met at diners and parking lots to develop their marketing plan. JUTAUN performed at waterfront venues, festivals and shopping centers selling more than 100,000 self-produced CD's. They followed every major concert tour performing outside venues and selling their album. Soon promoters began booking them to open for established artists. Their earliest promotional appearances include the Ebony Family Reunion concerts, Crest Latin Shows, and the "Pantene Total You Tour 2006".

"Say It" received positive reviews from music critics. Rick Florino of Artistdirect said, "...the new track sees him confidently embrace this inimitable and infectious style. It's airy drip transfixes just before building into an undeniable refrain. Somewhere between The Weeknd's nocturnal decadence and Future's space ruckus, Tory Lanez rules supreme. It's ultimately enigmatic and engaging at every turn. However, you really just need to listen to it for yourself."
