Rising Above the Noise: Why Lamont Jackson’s “Levitate (Remix 2025)” is the High We’ve Been Waiting For

By Mr. Benjamins

In a world where the music industry often feels like a factory for cynicism—cranking out tracks that sound like they were written by a depressed algorithm—comes a breath of fresh, Midwestern air. Enter Lamont Jackson.

If you haven’t heard the name yet, you haven’t been paying attention to the badge or the beat. By day, he’s a Trooper with the Kansas Highway Patrol, protecting the Governor and keeping the peace. But when the uniform comes off, Jackson protects something else entirely: the soul of feel-good music.


From the Squad Car to the Spotlight

Jackson isn’t just another aspiring artist; he’s a man who has looked the “Apollo Theater” crowd in the eye and walked away a winner. He’s shared the stage with Kelly Clarkson and earned his stripes through viral videos of him singing in his patrol car—proving that true talent doesn’t need a filter, just a frequency.

His latest release, “Levitate (Remix 2025)” featuring SJ The Artist, is a masterclass in what happens when old-school craftsmanship meets modern-day resilience. As Aristotle might have mused if he’d ever cruised through Topeka, “Music has a power of forming the character,” and Jackson’s character is as solid as they come.

“This song is about pushing past fear, past the opinions of others, and past anything that tries to hold you down,” says Jackson. “Levitation is symbolic—it’s choosing to rise when people expect you to fall.”

The 24K Magic of Positivity

When I first spun this track, I had to double-check if I’d accidentally stumbled onto a lost Bruno Mars or Michael Jackson session. The vibe is infectious. It’s got that 24K Magic swagger—carefree, fun, but underpinned by a passionate vocal delivery that reminds you this isn’t just a dance track; it’s a mission statement.

The production is a captivating symphony where the rhythm doesn’t just ask you to move—it demands it. It’s clean, it’s organic, and it’s something you could play in front of your grandmother or at the hottest club in Vegas.

A Verdict of Pure Gold

Honestly? It’s a 10/10.

In an era of “mumble rap” and AI-generated hooks, Jackson is bringing back the “memory-starter.” This isn’t just music; it’s a mood-setter. It’s the soundtrack for the underdog who refuses to stay down.

Jackson isn’t just singing about levitating; he’s helping the rest of us get off the ground. If you’re tired of the same old sound, it’s time to change the channel and let Lamont Jackson lead the way.


Keep rising, Lamont. The view from the top looks good on you.
