THE NEW SOULO ENTERTAINMENT LOGOPercy Leroy Jones, age 26, was born and raised in West Virginia. He grew up in a home with his mother, father, and sister until age 7 when his mother died. Her death was a tragic and painful event that left a profound effect on the rest of Jones..s life. Following his mother..s death, his sister moved to another city to live with her father. His dad was a truck driver and traveled most of the time, so Jones spent his childhood moving from home to home, living with aunts and his father. His unconventional adolescent years made Jones grow up fast and become independent far more quickly than his peers. While he enjoyed normal youth hobbies like playing football and hanging out with his friends and sister, Jones always felt like he was different from other kids and always enjoyed spending time alone.As a child Jones wanted to become a truck driver like his father, but his career goals changed in his teenage years. At the age of 15, a friend wrote a rap verse for him. Jones liked it so much that he decided to start writing his own. Initially, people did not take him seriously and would laugh at his rhymes. When he was 16, he was locked up in Salem after a run-in with the law. However, he did not get discouraged. Jones felt as though he had found his niche in music and continued to write and improve. He soon got better and people began to admire him for his rap skills. When he was 16, he and a friend were asked to perform at a local Christian youth rally for troubled teens. While he only had 4 days to prepare for what would be his first real performance, he accepted the challenge. The performance proved to be a huge success. Jones felt at home on the stage and loved the attention he received from the crowd. On this day, Prim The Rapper was born.Prim cites his biggest influence in rap to be Tupac. ..When I first heard Me Against the World, I remember thinking that Tupac felt just like I did and was seeing the same things I saw each day,.. Prim says. Prim creates music now so that his audiences will get that same feeling when listening to his music. While he is also a fan of Biggie, Nas, LL Cool J, and Mobb Deep, Prim states he would most like to perform with JayZ. ..Lyrically he is the best rapper alive,.. he states.Prim is passionate about his own music and declares that he has a lot to say. He describes his music as ..music that people want to hear, need to hear...When asked to describe his personality, Jones declares there are two distinct sides to him. First there is a Prim, a man whose goal is to make a name for himself as a successful rap artist and businessman. Then there is Percy, a renegade outsider from West Virginia who has nothing to lose. Jones strives to live each day as Prim.Prim is currently working on a mix tape, due to be released this year. He has two studios, one of which is in his home, and spends time each day making music. Trying to become more than just a local hometown artist, Prim has spent much of this year performing in various states outside West Virginia. He is also making a name for his company, Soulo Entertainment whose name is a reflection of Prim..s preference to be alone and the fact that his soul is low.In 5 years, Prim hopes to be a globally recognized rap artist with a successful business and music career. When asked to describe his career, Prim states ..People say Hip Hop is dead. I..m bringing it back...Prim ft. Freeway "Streets Is Ours"
