Welcome to the Jonek soundclick page.
My name is Jonek, and it's nice to meet you.
My name is Jonek, and it's nice to meet you.
Why this name?
Jonek means "Little Jonny"... it was chosen for me.
Do you play live?
Play live? Sure!
Mostly around my home town... and wherever you would like to have me.
Mostly around my home town... and wherever you would like to have me.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
If you know the answer, why ask the question?
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
It all depends on the offer. It is possible to be a completely successful independent artist.
Band History:
BIOGRAPHY
Coming from a home that banned Vanilla Ice and MC Hammer, comes a uniquely outspoken emcee whose focus is to broaden respect for the hip hop art form while spreading a positive message. Jonek's brand of hip hop is easygoing, fun, and yet relevant and hard hitting as his music relates to today's youth on a level that only a kid could pull off. He is exactly that: a big kid with a passion for music, and a passion to see other kids walking on the straight and narrow.
Jonek performances treat the audience to a rare display of beatboxing, fresh lyrics, and good times. "I'm not really into that rap stuff" is a comment usually heard by J1K, only to be followed by a "but I really liked your music". Jonek has performed at stages everywhere, and is bound to show up at a youth rally near you. He has opened for artists such as Pigeon John, KJ-52, Manafest, and Dragon Fli Empire.
Inukshuk: Pointing In The Right Direction is Jonek's brand new CD. The album concept came from Inuit rock formations ("rock people") which served as landmarks in barren landscapes. The same can be said about the album: It is a landmark, standing in a market full of music with no purpose or direction, pointing towards the answer... Jesus Christ.
Featuring production by Tony Stone, and the sultry voice of Beatmart recording artist Pee Wee Callins, this "feel-good" album is a monument to dedication and perseverance, with that quirky, big kid, Jonek twist.
Jonek's most recent accomplishment is writing a biography in the third person. He hopes you enjoy what you see, read, and hear... and have a great day. God Bless.

Anything else...?
For all those in the competition
Looking for a bit of recognition
With this composition I bring requisition
No kidding, just sit back, and listen
To diction in contradiction of fiction
I'm not fishing for remission
I'm wishing for decisions
On a life that will last
On the straight and narrow path
