and delivered with belief of such Conviction.
Sounds.
In 2001, after a career changing introduction to
Kemo, who used to be in Delinquent Habits gave Jehuniko the
opportunity to go to Europe with him, and participate in the 1st annual Latin Rap Conference, Latin Alternative Music Conference, TV shows, and featured on 2 songs off Kemo's solo album.
On MUN2 the Roof, Jehuniko was featured twice with interviews,
a live performance and a video premiere. On one episode,
J wore the trade mark lion mask in downtown LA
as he walked in the middle of the street shooting a video
for his song the Quiet One in the Back,
while drivers honked at the freak in the mask
( he smiled forever about that one.)
Also on Mun2, their show la Conexion allowed Jehuniko
the platform to speak about life, world politics, and music
explaining the societal links to crime and a Government's
attempt to stifle the lifes blood of todays youth
Jehuniko has also been featured on SITVs the Drop, LATV, and Nationally Syndicated "Urban Latino,"
Up in Canada, the National Canadian Arts Council chose a song from
Jehuniko to feature on their Event CD for their annual art & music festival
In Costa Rica, he went on a promotional tour making stops at National
Television shows UTV, and PM Latino doing live performances and interviews,
and premiering a video that was shot in Costa Rica.
At the end of the tour, Jehuniko headlined
a show there in the capital, San Jose.
2005, J did many shows with wife, Binx and brought a headlining performance in Mexicali,
Mexico at the Government sponsored Mexican Hip Hop Festival.
J Also performed alongside Kemo and Mack 10, opened up for
HR of Bad Brains, the Coup with his crew Almas Intocables, and did many other shows in
Mexico, Texas, and all over the state of California.
2006 so far has seen 2 visits to Costa Rica, which coincided
with the release of "la pura vida"
Jehuniko's debut solo record on Dead Silence Records.
.Aside from doing shows, and various media outlets, they filmed the video for the single,
"El Animal Humano" which was shot in Costa Rica and also the video for " time traveler."
The future glimmers with positive energy, as the Messenger of Sound
brings water to the drought, offering nutrition and a soundtrack for the musical revolution.
Jehuniko recognizes the importance of the unification of all people everywhere
and empowering Raza and humanity in general with the Information Revolution
