JB is an independent rapper and songwriter from a small town in Long Island, NY called Hempstead. JB is a fresh face that is steadily rising in the music industry. Although he is an indie artist, JB has already worked and performed with some our mainstream contributors including Wale and Lupe Fiasco.

JB’s journey in music thus far has consisted of honing his artistry skills, building his network, and making music about his experiences. His smash single, “Nothing To Lose,” talks about being on the journey to success and the obstacles that may come your way. Some of those obstacles include growing up in an environment with violence and limited opportunities. He expresses wanting to relay the message that there are multiple options for success and that you do not have to be a product of a negative environment.

“’Nothing to Lose’ should let people know that they have something to prove to yourself, not to the world. I don’t believe in keeping up with the Jones’ or competing with people in your life. I more so believe in competing with myself and making sure that I’m the best product that I can be. Once people get that, then everything will come together.”

What we can expect up next from JB is his Future of Music Tour in which JB will stop by 6 cities in March in which he will be stopping by Warehouse Live Houston. You can keep up with JB by following him on Twitter & Instagram – UknoJB. You can also listen to “Nothing To Lose” below and the single is available for purchase on iTunes.
