Charlotte bred Jojo the King creates music that's a bridge between generational gaps, combining the classics and modern day music. It's authentic, from the soul and gimmick free. Reminiscent of classic old school R&B that takes you back to growing up but his production methods add a new millennium flow specific to current times. His voice is melodic and easy on the ears as it pulls at your heart.
Jojo's style is not manufactured it's a God given talent that is exposed every time he touches the mic and keys. Influenced by a mixture of genres and artists, such as Sam Cooke, Otis Redding, Earth, Wind & Fire, Prince, Musiq, & John Legend, Jojo is a musician that takes bits and pieces from his soul and puts it into his tracks. If he feels old school love or new school drama, that's what comes pouring out when he records; and his listeners feel it exactly the way he does.
A seemingly new artist, Jojo erupted into Charlotte's growing music scene just 4 years ago, but he began pursuing his passion at the age of 17, in church. The son of a Pastor, Jojo grew up active in his church's choir, directing and playing music. Jojo was born into a musical family. His dad sang and wrote music. This talent is in his DNA. It's even been passed down to his 5 year old son who is already showing an interest in music; free styling lyrics.

Jojo loves every minute he has soaking up new information with learning the ins and outs of the music business. Jojo is no stranger to hard work and continuous education, which shows through his work ethic in the studio behind the boards or in the booth. The man can do it all. Creating tracks from start to finish! From original writing, producing, arranging, mixing, engineering, even completing his first album project titled "Mr. Groovie". Jojo is a name that will ring synonymous with R&B greats for generations to come.
