Born in Hollywood Fl, in 1982, but all Ican remember is moving 2 Atlanta in 1984 right before crack hit & at the same time children were turnin up missing. My folks spilt-up around that time also, & my mama had 5 kids I was her last. 2 sisters & brothers raised me made sure I was hip & I could stand up for myself, just dont start anything but I was sure 2 give it 2 them if they were asking 4 it. When I started school in College Park I was out da ordinary. It only felt natural but 2 some I was a menace & a distraction 2 others. Na I aint bad just dont kiss no azz. Thats basicly all I know about the 80s oh ya shout-out 2 Micheal Jackson & Sada.In 1990 I moved 2 Columbus (100 miles away) but father behind. Got educated & learn the ways of life & living. I will always love my town simply cause growing up in Columbus ment growing up with manors 2 some people, I was like O.K.I had a city-boy mentality in a simicity know what I mean. This is when I got a understanding about life & living which made me humble. In 95 I hit middle school & was like this is it. Jumped in face first, started gettin money selling sweets & sweet stuff from ladies. Then in 98 the streets made a claim on my name, around this time life was a question. It took a long time 4 a answer, it came with my writing. I learned how 2 sit myself down & put the pain on the paper. J-Roc was born.In 2000 I moved 2 Orlando Fl, it was the first time since birth when I went to the state. I love the weather down there, greatest place for the winter. Meet new people & contacts that were for the cause. Made my name down there & moved back 2 Atl 2003. Stayin down 4 my talent I network my way underground with my rapin & promotin of myself. Begining of 06 my hommie Playa Ray moved 2 Atl, he told me he had a song & the hook then we made it happen. Fully cofident in material we performed at the hot club joints: Babes, Poole Palace, Crucial (T.I. joint) Djangles, & house parties. Now I alternate between Columbus & Atlanta. Its a grind that aint over. Dont bound your self in 1 city limit 4 2 long. Get out & see new places cause they come with new faces.This is Under ground Music 4 my listeners. So check out my art work.
