JONES 2.0

FOLLOW HIM ON TWITTER @jonespoundsign

 And my latest mixtape is here : PLAYING WITH WORDS- MIXTAPE
A better mixtape is coming out next month though


Jones 2.0 is a 20 year rapper from London. He didn’t take an interest in music as early as most people around him, but at 19 he started rapping. With the help of his friends and fellow rappers Snipez and Barrz he set up a home studio and has been continuously recording since.  He has 3 mixtapes, various videos on youtube and will drop a 4th mixtape by the end of the year. He shows a versatile style of rapping by not sticking to the same topic every track and consistently switching his flow. He is also very experimental and is not afraid to delve in to other genres of music such as neo soul, techno etc. He has a bright future ahead of him, be on the look out for him.
