About junz F hustle

Exdol Lloyd Powell jr. was born in Jamaica on October 20,1982. He migrated to the Bronx, New York , USA in 1999. Jamaica has a very rich musical culture and then to transplant here has made his ear for music very unique. While growing up in borough of the Bronx where the Hip Hop culture resonates through every street block and corner, he became captivated by the music and the culture. Even till this day the atmosphere that was in the air when Jay Z’s album “In My Lie Vol 1” dropped, has still made that album significant to him. It maybe the point where Junz F Hustle became a student/son/ of Hip Hop.

Junz F Hustle is a man on a mission. He is a writer, producer, rapper and just an orchestrator of Music. He started writing early 2000’s, it took him a while to master his style but just like all great artists he is does not want to be in a box so he is still evolving and perfecting his craft. This is evident in his collection of his recordings and mixtapes. His first official mixtape was “Now or Never (The Change Vol 1)” released in June of 2008. He followed that up with “They Got Me On The Hook” released May of 2011 which led to a series of other projects. The concept behind it was him putting his verse on records and leaving the original hook from the tract.
