Sunday, 3 November, 2019
A year and a half ago, J Grange was excluded from school, labelled a troublemaker and was going down the wrong path.The Chelmsford rapper was experiencing run-ins with the police but an appearance in court changed everything.Now, the 17-year-old is on a different path - making music and wanting to spread vitally important messages.The teenager had always wondered why he was acting up and why he was acting differently - until he was diagnosed with ADHD.After that diagnosis, the mental health struggles that came along with it - the frustration, the depression and the anger - were suddenly put into perspective.Beforehand that anger caused him to go down the wrong path but things are very different today.J Grange now focuses on what inspires him - making upbeat music to help people escape from whatever dark periods they may go through.It also helps him release anger and deliver his mental health messages to his fans.He also mentors disadvantaged children through a charity to guide them down a different path than the one he did.Brought to you by Essex Live, Humans of Chelmsford is a podcast about inspiring people with incredible tales from across the city.Each show we uncover the stories you never knew existed about fellow Chelmsford residents and their lives.Music in this episode is from Broke For Free and J Grange.You can find J Grange’s YouTube channel by clicking here For information regarding your data privacy, visit acast.com/privacy Learn more about your ad choices.
