At 17 years-old when many kids his age are not sure what they want to do with their lives, Kid Jones’ dreams were already taking form. “I discovered I had the ability to rap and I began working out my skills with friends that produced music around the city.

While music is at the forefront of Kid Jones’ goal of taking over the industry, the entertainer is multi-faceted. “Besides making music I am currently attending college to receive a degree in business and a minor in African-American studies. Understanding how to make more money has always been interesting to me.”
