With the multitude of dance records ranging from snap heavy bops to adrenaline pumping stomps, Louisiana born teenagers Lil Josh and Ernest bring forth an inimitable Southern record that has teens nationwide in a frenzy. "'Jigga Juice' is the song that started it all," says Lil Josh. "It's the reason why kids are paying attention to us now." As the fresh faces of "jig music," the duo have rife knowledge of what it takes to get their peers ready for the dance floor, which are detailed in the first verse of their track: "I got that jigga juice, I got that jigga juice/ It got me jiggalin', it got me gettin' loose/ And I'm 'bout to dance, And I'm 'bout to party/ I feel it in my body, I'm 'bout to get retarded/ And like a power ranger, I'm 'bout to power up/ I'm about to transform and get ridiculous." Before Lil Josh and Ernest had eyes and ears turned in their direction, the two grew up in vastly different upbringings in their Baton Rouge households. Raised solely by his mother, Josh and his four siblings endured life surrounded by what Josh deems "the 'hood." To escape the volatile streets, a then 8-year-old Josh began rapping to get his mind out of the gutter and into creative spirits. At 12 years old, the aspiring rapper recorded his first song in a local studio with his cousin Slim. Though he didn't think seriously at the time of following in the footsteps of Sean "Diddy" Combs and Jay-Z—his musical motivators—it was his mother who pushed him to perfect his craft by rapping
