Coco Jones个人资料：
At a time in music where Powerhouse Vocalists are few and the essential players have become
a thing of the past, a breath of fresh air gives way in the form of CoCo Jones.
With a soulful, dynamic voice and a commanding Flow,the classy, yet bold Jones takes you on a journey.
At Andrews AFB in Maryland on December 4, 1981, singer, emcee and songwriter Keri "CoCo" Jones was born.
Finding her vocal talent at 11 years old in church, She continued to sing and hone her gift of through high school.
During college, CoCo discovered her love for Hip Hop and the ability to express herself through rhyme. Together
with the group RXN, a Vocalist/Emcee was born.
Just after college, CoCo began a solo project befittingly titled SuperSoulSista with FirstBorn Productions. The
collaboration with FirstBorn conceived the sensational hit track “Anticipating”, which was picked up and heavily
rotated by radio stations throughout the Midwest and abroad.
"Anticipating" and four other songs from SuperSoulSista received placement on The Oxygen networks "Bad Girls
Club" for two consecutive seasons. The album also garnered the attention of multi-platinum producer and mogul
Dallas Austin, who was impressed by CoCos artistic skill and songwriting ability.
The proposed deal didn’t pan out, and after a down period of soul searching, CoCo moved forward.
Now, having released the album "Customs" with Atlanta breakout Hip Hop Supergroup, Passport, the journey
continues. Together with multi-faceted Producer/Engineer /Emcee/Songwriter, Collin Gibson and Dungeon
Familys own Veteran Lyricist, Jawz of Life, the group has coupled a fresh sound with commercial appeal and
maintained a classic presence.
In addition, CoCo can be found on the road, making appearances and performing with the 54 Weeks Tour
(www.54weeks.com).
“It may seem crazy to pick up and leave everything familiar to go on a year-long tour to others, but I’m on this
journey to better myself as an artist and as an individual. The tour is a self-funded, grassroots tour much like
what many Rock Bands do to be heard. I and 4 other solo artists packed into a van and we’re making it happen on
our own, i.e. Bookings, Management, Recording, Packaging, Promo...everything. I believe I need to invest that in
myself first before I expect anyone else to do so.”
Jones is taking the tour as an opportunity to perform and push material from “Customs” as well as new solo
project, “Anticipating”, and Mixtape, “Nosce Temet: Know Thyself”.
Coco’s vocals can be heard on a number of independently released projects with artists including BIGREC, THE-
5IVE, Collin Gibson, Jawz of Life, Shred the Verbal Tongue, Dangerous Rob, Phurious Stlyes, IMA, and on well
knowns like Baby aka Birdman’s album 5 Star Stunna, on the opening track “Fully Loaded”.
Given the sensuality of Janet Jackson, the charisma and edge of Pink, the essence & soul of Mary J. Blige and
Aretha Franklin, and the lyrical prowess of Lauryn Hill, songwriter, vocalist and emcee, CoCo Jones represents the
next level of classic music.
