Career
While a teenager, he formed Young Black Preachers (YBP) with his god-brothers, Tre Smith and Aaron "Projeck" Butler, and released a number of EPs alongside his solo work. This output and his Lunch Special mixes drew the attention of Steve Ellison, aka Flying Lotus, and led to Jae's move to Los Angeles in 2007.
After spending 6 months involving himself in the Los Angeles beat scene, and meeting the rest of the Brainfeeder roster, Jae was signed to the imprint. Following the release of Dxnce, Jae's debut Brainfeeder project Rappayamatantra was released in 2011.{{cite web|url=http://drownedinsound.com/releases/16084/reviews/4142301|title=Jeremiah Jae - Rappayamatantra|website=Drowned in Sound|first=Philip|last=Bloomfield|date=March 24, 2011|accessdate=|archive-date=February 1, 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140201183810/http://drownedinsound.com/releases/16084/reviews/4142301|url-status=dead}} {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140201183810/http://drownedinsound.com/releases/16084/reviews/4142301 |date=February 1, 2014 }} Throughout that time, Jae continued the Lunch Special series{{cite web|url=http://exclaim.ca/MusicVideo/ClickHear/jeremiah_jae-lunch_special_pt_4_mixtape|title=Jeremiah Jae - 'Lunch Special Pt. 4' mixtape|website=Exclaim!|first=Josiah|last=Hughes|date=August 10, 2011|accessdate=}} and contributed beats to the Captain Murphy mixtape Duality.{{cite web|url=http://www.cmj.com/reviews/captain-murphy-duality/|title=Review: Captain Murphy - Duality (Self-Released)|website=CMJ|first=Dan|last=Jackson|date=December 13, 2012|accessdate=}}
