Born in Atlanta, Georgia and raised in Capital Homes Jay “ATL†Johnson has always had a strong passion for music. Growing up around his older brother Erik “Undiputed†Armstead didn’t really leave him any other choice but to. Like any younger brother ATL latched onto his older brother and started listening to all of his brothers favorite rap artists: Outkast,Jay Z,Cash Money,T.I.,Ludacris etc. This inspired him to try and be like his role models. Every day ATL would go and steal his brothers tape deck cd player and mic and try his hardest to make music.As ATL grew older and bettered his craft he began networking at school meeting meeting new people who shared the same talent as him. During this process he met and bonded with still his very close friend Antuan “Hoven The Great†Major. The two began making names for themselves around Sweetwater Middle School battle rapping everybody who thought they stood a chance entering talent shows,performing at pep rallies etc. Then the two came up with a brilliant idea…â€BlackOutBoiz aka B.O.B.â€BloackOutBoiz consisted of 4 individuals ATL,Hoven The Great,Da General and Bad Newz aka J.Wynter.BlackOutBoiz became locally known when the BlackOutBoiz collab mixtape with Certified Geez entitled “Tha Recognition†was released in the fall of 2006. Afterwards the fans were constantly asking “When are you going to drop a solo mixtape?†So ATL immediately began working on “My Turnâ€.

Bad Newz and Hoven†and “2 Cool ft. Bad Newz and Hoven†expanded his fanbase “It’s My Time To Shine†says ATL.
