Introducing Memphis Artist, King JBoi

Born and raised in the streets of Memphis, Tennessee, King JBoi emerged on the music scene with an attempt to change his life and the lives of those around him.  The life experiences depicted in his music, along with a passion to learn more about the industry, developed JBoi into the artist he is today.  “I’m very influential in the streets, and I’ve always liked music”, says King JBoi.  With his experiences, life lessons, culture, and environment—JBoi has multiple influences from his life that contribute to his unique sound you hear today.

JBoi created his own path navigating through the Hip Hop world by creating the L.i.E. (Loyalty Is Everything) organization in his youth.  Increasing his passion for Hip Hop as an art, culture, and lifestyle—JBoi released his mixtape “Street Prophecy,” followed by a series of NBA themed mixtapes that included “Lebron James,” “Wilson Chandler,” and “Scottie Pippen.”  He also added, “What I’ve learned is, if you want it—go get it.  They don’t give million dollar checks out of pity.”

Recently, King JBoi reappeared on the music scene with a new EP entitled “Holy Trinity”, aiming to solidify his independence in the industry.  Featured singles “Really Impressed,” “Still No Deal,” and “Holy Trinity'' are some of the favorites from the EP.  These songs illustrate his history in the streets and evolution in the music industry.  He says, “it shows all 3 sides of me,” and that’s important to him as an artist.  “Coming from a world as a ‘dope boy’ to starting a nonprofit as a ‘mentor’ to priding myself on being a ‘father’ has created the person I am today,”  King JBoi added.  This project has created a one-of-a-kind sound with a high amount of authenticity.

In King JBoi’s spare time, he wears many hats—stepping outside the traditional box of just a Hip Hop artist.  Achieving his Masters in Sports Administration, after playing basketball in college, was first of many achievements.  He used his Masters degree to create something bigger, and with a few years of hard work—he founded his nonprofit, Team JBoi.  “The organization serves to fund athletes of all sports with equal opportunity, and gives them a platform that otherwise wouldn’t exist for most,” says JBoi. Helping the next generation is a true milestone in his life, and there is so much more to come from him.

King JBoi wouldn’t give any specific details, but confirms there are two projects completed and awaiting release dates.  Check out the website www.KingJBoi.com and follow his social media handles for constant updates and releases.

GENESIS Z and THE BLACK MAMBAS Drop ‘Karnivor’ (ft. Redman)

‘Karnivor’ is the latest release from GENESIS Z AND THE BLACK MAMBAS. The single also features Redman and is a sublime genre fusion.

An upbeat and enticing opening greets the listener. We love the upbeat funk vibe that instantly demands the audience’s attention. Genesis Z’s vocals are warm and filled with a luscious tone, and the chorus is melodic and memorable too.

We are sure that ‘Karnivor’ will please existing Genesis Z fans while winning him an army of new ones too. Redman’s rap is the perfect accompaniment to the track. His fast-flowing lyrics hit effortlessly and inject extra energy into the single.

From opening for Stevie Wonder, rockin’ the stage & house parties with Medusa, Anderson Paak and Bruno Mars (before their stardom) to song pitching for Seal, Lauren Hill, and Beyoncé, Genesis Z is a special talent.

Past Work

In 2001 Genesis moved to California and founded the music production company Labratz. Here he created content for musicians, primary artists, and small businesses. He is also known for his work with his electro band De5tro who produced alongside hip-hop legend, Redman.

The release of ‘Karnivor’ sees Genesis Z going back to his roots. He has worked with names like Dr. Dre, Busta Rhymes, SPLIFF STAR, Rah Digga, Nate Dogg 213, and Korn, but ‘Karnivor’ hears a return to his original sound and is an innovating and exciting release.

We very much enjoyed ‘Karnivor’ and recommend adding it to your weekend playlist. We are so pleased to have discovered this experienced artist and will be checking out his back catalogue too.

Genesis describes his solo music as a biography of his life, “Every song is a page, and every album is a chapter.” We look forward to hearing what the next chapter will bring.

North "2unes" Woodall Serenades Fans with New Release "Giving U the Best I Got"

Primarily a self-taught musician, it was at the age of eleven that his mom introduced him to the guitar and a love affair with music that has stood the test of time. In his teens, North “2unes” Woodall studied the playing styles of Ernie Isley, Santana, and Joe Walsh, among other R&B, funk, rock, and pop music styles. Hard work, determination, and a natural gift paid off and as a result of his exceptional proficiency with the guitar, he was quickly established with popular groups in and around Dayton, Ohio, such as The Delvones and Round Trip Ticket.

North has since relocated to Atlanta, Georgia and was sought to share the stage with funk masters Lakeside, The Ohio Players, Roger Troutman and Zapp, Roy Aires, Millie Jackson, Tom Brown and Will Downing. He regularly sells out venues as the audiences know that they will be highly entertained and satisfied by tight arrangements and banging guitar solos with great licks. And the blessings continued to flow. 2unes has become a staple on the Atlanta music scene appearing in venues from the Ritz Carlton to Wind-Down Wednesdays at Centennial Park, bridging the generation gap with his unique music blend of jazz, R&B, and hip-hop.

“I work for the listener and my music is designed for them. It is important to me that I give them what they want.” Woodall went on to say that he defines his musical style as being like a gumbo. “I can’t be put into a box musically. I’m not one thing, but many things bringing people together from all sides of the music spectrum.”
