The first artist of 570 Records. His flow is like no other and his voice and style are all his own. There are many talented rappers but not all are stars, as he is the genuine article. From the streets of Los Angeles to the streets of the Bronx, he is a forced to be reckoned with.
J Smooth (Jorh-el) was born in Los Angeles, CA and grew up in South Central LA. In his younger years he was in the church choir and also performance choir but singing wasn't where his heart was. He started getting into rap in his early years with influences like the Sugarhill Gang and continued later on with Snoop Dogg. During his senior year of high school, he was freestyling on blacktops during lunch breaks but he had yet to find his own style. The name J Smooth came from many influences. One influence was from the word that best discribes his flow, what else but "Smooth".
