Now in the present day, J Ce still holds fast to his ambitions of completing his 1st solo album and building an empire around his name ranging all the way from a clothing line to web design. Also, J Ce aspires to build a record label introducing fresh, new talent with a little bit of that old school vibe. I think with the determination that he possesses, he will be like a breath of fresh air in the industry and that what he brings to the table will inspire others to follow in the same footsteps. Maybe it will begin to take more than a catchy hook to sell records. Maybe when introduced to a raw talent like J Ce, the public will begin to remember that Hip Hop and R&B soul, real Hip Hop was actually talking about something.

J Ce's advice for the up and coming young dreamer who has ambitions of becoming a star are "Never quit. You will have your normal ups and downs and people telling you that you can't do this and can't do that but never ever give up!"

Who Is J Ce?

Up and coming songster J Ce is on a mission to bring back the true meaning of Hip Hop to an era that in his own words has "Lost touch with what the movement stood for in the first place."

J Ce was born Michael J Carroll on January 20 1985 in Washington DC. The name J Ce stems from the initials of his middle name, Jerome, and his last name. It is a definite symbol of originality and style.

Fueling his desire to put soul back into the heart of R&B is the fact that J Ce grew up admiring the sultry sounds of artists such as the infamous female group En Vogue, the Queen of Hip Hop Soul Mary J. Blige, and all male groups New Edition and Jodeci. He recalls seeing these superstars on TV and says that as early as the age of 5 he would sit in front of the TV watching them while singing along and saying, "I can do that. This is what I want to do."

It was this degree of determination that enabled J Ce to hold strong to his dream while growing up in the heart of DC during less than perfect times for him and his family. J Ce, the middle child between one younger sister, one older sister, and two fosters sisters was often forced to be the "man of the house" so to speak and had to take on the responsibilities of adults at an early age.
