JR Jones

JR Jones is an up & coming Hip-Hop and Reggaeton rap artist, producer, and songwriter. Currently living in Los Angeles, CA, the 22-year-old bilingual artist displays an undeniable presence on numerous tracks. After releasing his first two EP's titled, "El Amor Quebrado" and "The Dark Room EP", JR built a strong fan base comprised of 18-25 year-olds. Both projects were written, produced and performed by JR. Being an Afro-Latino artist, JR brings a unique mix of two dynamic cultures. “I love the fact that I can speak English and Spanish, it opens the door for me to be really creative as an artist.” – JR

Growing up the son of an R&B/Hip-hop artist (Mykel Marquis), JR naturally gravitated towards music at the age of 16. Under the tutelage of his father, and with a passion to create music, JR has created floor-shaking music that flows with an international appeal. "His work ethic is un-matched in this industry, and when you have the talent to match your drive, the sky is the limit", says Marquis.

“Work ethic” is something JR has definitely mastered. This past May, JR launched his brand “Black Musa Empire” with the help of his co-founder Rudy Taylor. Together the two have developed a full-on production company producing shirts, hats, and music videos. Currently, JR is working on his 2nd wave of merchandise to release in late December.

JR has already caught the attention of many different radio stations, including the Stockton, CA radio station 98.3 KWIN, receiving acceptance for airplay featuring only the hottest new talent. Popular radio personality Amanda King had this to say about this young talent:

“His energy is contagious! I can see big things in store for him! Watch this guy shock the world!”

JR has also been featured by a few magazines including Respect Magazine, ThisIs50, and many more.

Most recently, JR made his television debut rapping in Spanish on EstrellaTv’s hit show “Noches con Platanito”. On the show, JR received high praise for his great flow and potential to be a star from judge Pepe Garza.


"I know what I am, I know what I'm capable of, and God's with me. Right now, my main focus is to keep making great music, I will be the best". -JR

Most recently, JR has released his highly anticipated EP titled "The Coronation". The EP is available in all music stores, and available through streaming platforms as well.
