Artist Bio
John John – Soulful Expressions
John John, real name John Francis Jr., has been honing his craft secretly in Trinidad and patiently waiting for his time to shine. His influences come from the soul greats and recent R&B artists like Stevie Wonder, Donnie Hathaway, Boyz II Men, Jodeci, Bilal and Musiq Soulchild.
John John’s soulful yet rugged vocals are immersed in the heartfelt joy and pain of ‘true’ R&B – that gritty rhythm, blues and angst.
Signed to Highway Records, John John has been putting the final touches on his highly anticipated album ‘Cita’s Grandson’ which will be released later this year.
He literally became a household name over night due to his feature on another label-mate and highly rated Hip-hop act’s track - ‘Cold Blooded’ by Chromatics. This was the number one video on Synergy TV’s top ten count-down for over a month in Trinidad.
John John’s first single, ‘Angel’, received rave reviews & was featured heavily on radio stations’ playlists across Trinidad. An amazing feat for an R&B artist in 2010 to have a hit single on stations that mainly plays reggae, dancehall and soca.
He was also regularly featured on BBC radio stations’ R&B playlists in the UK during 2010 with ‘Angel’ with great feedback from their listeners.
John John’s new single ‘State of Mind’ (featuring Lady More) got a standing ovation from the audience when he performed it ‘live’ on Synergy TV in March of this year and will be released very soon.
He has recently collaborated with acts and producers from the US in an effort to break into the international market.
John John continues to perform regularly at live shows across Trinidad and is growing in his fan base.
His biggest asset is his humility and he uses the medium of music to spread positive messages about love, unity and personal experiences anyone can relate to.
“This track is DOPE John John!!!! Your voice amazed me the 1st time I heard it when I interviewed you and it still does! The lyrics, the poignancy and delivery in this track are spot on! This is a film soundtrack contribution right there! Well done & keep pushing the boundaries in your genre brother! Not enough music out there with meaningful lyrics and quality vocals.” - Steph Hernandez (former BBC radio presenter/ Editor-in-Chief – EXIST Media)
“This is what we are talking about! Music with a message to open minds, eyes and ears with song!” – Judah Macabee
