简介

Who is Kami Jones? I kinda know. And I\'ll tell you. After I take you on a mind-boggling journey through a triangle of nothingness that will inevitably help you understand nothing more than that which was understood prior to indulging in this paragraph. A blast from the past. A flash into the future. Kami Jones is an anemone. Nope. That\'s wrong. An anomaly. Irregular in every way, yet uncomfortably normal. In case you haven\'t noticed, she is also exceptional at writing in the third person. Others may try – but few have conquered. Kami\'s career in music began as a miniature when she started writing songs for a group she and some friends formed at school. Most of the songs were girl versions of everything BBD. Eventually the group disbanded and Kami decided to aim for something solo. This decision eventually led her to some rich dudes in Montclair, NJ who had a 27 room main house, and a studio in the basement. Her stepfather gave her some weird contraption to make beats on, and she made various concoctions out of The Sylistics\' \"Stop, Look, Listen.\" The beats were wack. And so was the contract. And Kami\'s black. So it had to go back. That didn\'t stop her passion for music or poetry. Two of her greatest accomplishments were a song she penned for Jodeci called \"I Won\'t Hurt You\", and a rap she wrote for the remix of Tony Thompson\'s \"Handle Our Business\" when she was in middle school. You\'ve probably never heard them because neither Jodeci, nor Thompson (may he R.I.P.) responded when she mailed the lyrics to the label. Jones continued writing songs, raps, and poems for up and comers who never came up. She even started banging out beats on friends MPC\'s until she eventually bought her own. She made herself a demo from two of those beats and started playing it for people. Somebody somewhere saw potential, handed her some doper beats, sent her home with a pen (even though she had some), and urged the creation of what now exist. Kami Jones. Alienesque. Partaker of much. Sugar and such. Digs a good clutch. Likes double dutch. And tug boats – but will never tug boats. This is the reveal. Pull back the velvet please…I introduce you to…Kami Jones. Hope this helps.
