Global COVID-19 disruption inspires “Time Treasure” by Joc Scholar of Grand Opus

Joc Scholar

Even though the invention of man-made time is an illusion, the clock still ticks… Things change, we all age, some get sick, relationships end, people die, money/jobs come and go, so one of the most important commodities you’ll ever have and something you can never recover is time.

This global COVID-19 disruption has inspired one half of Cali duo Grand Opus, Fresno CA lyricist Joc Scholar to release “Time Treasure” produced by Nas’ Mass Appeal artist Fashawn, his debut entry behind the boards.

“Time is a treasure, treasure time, and the time is always now, take action and make something happen.” – Joc Scholar

Along with Joc, the duo Grand Opus also features Oakland producer Centric. Their last album, High Power, was released in 2018.

You can find the new record on various digital streaming platforms including Apple Music and Spotify.
