Mr. J. Medeiros a Los Angeles-based rapper, producer, singer and songwriter.
Medeiros got his start when he formed the Hip-Hop group, The Procussions, in his hometown of Colorado Springs, CO. Following the buzz of their first single, Medeiros spearheaded their relocation to Los Angeles. The band would go on to enjoy four successful years in rap’s underground scene, touring the world and garnering critical acclaim for both their recorded and live performances. Some of their more notable achievements include touring with Hip Hop icons A Tribe Called Quest and The Roots, and collaborating with Talib Kweli on their single “Miss January”. The trio had two independent releases, As Iron Sharpens Iron and their EP Up All Night. Their sophomore album, 5 Sparrows for 2 Cents, was the first release on Rawkus Records’s revamped label. The group disbanded in 2007 on good terms.
Later that year, Mr. J. Medeiros dropped his debut album, Of Gods and Girls, on Rawkus Records. Medeiros used this time to take on the roles of both producer and rapper. These two facets came together to produce the single “Constance”, where Mr. J. took aim at the ills of human trafficking and internet pornography. To help raise awareness on this issue Medeiros formed the iamconstance. « hide |
