I do a few sets a year.

I've always been interested in the development of urban music production. I've always enjoyed playing with beat machines, mixers, and related computer software. My brother (RJ Davis) was a well-known local producer and instrumentalist - his instrumentals were and are popular among local hip hop artists. In 2004 my brother, RJ, was brutally murdered. (4/17/86 - 5/24/04). After experiencing this life-bending tragedy, I began to write my emotions in form of song and, shortly after, moved on to recording. My producing talents significantly increased over time, so as my lyrical content expanded. Meanwhile, I had developed a reputation as a new, hot local hip-hop artist - alias "Player J".

Throughout the years, I released and featured on a number of local mixtapes and albums. I had been attending church, on and off, all of my life. I've faced alot of tragedies that would typically cause the majority to make a turn for the worst, but the things that I've experienced have pushed me to grow mature and patient. In the later months of 2007, I was compelled by inspiration given through the Word of God and committed to attending church regularly. I was touched by many sermons and devotions; realizing, without much delay, that I have a trustworthy King who loves unconditionally. I received salvation by the end of 2007. Shortly after, I prayed a prayer (relating to personal life events) that was answered immediately. By this I was inspired to start over and use my gifts for a higher calling.

I destroyed every hard copy of my secular material that was in my posession (albums and mixtapes, music videos, and performance videos); dropped my alias, my webpage and started completely fresh.

In this: I've been blessed with great gifts to execute in ministry. In addition to my gifts of rapping, song-writing and singing - I play guitar, drums and keyboard. My genre is now recognized as gospel hip-hop / pop.
