Jones Tembo aka Jst Jones had no amazing back story. Probably no back-story worth reading anyway. This by no means is due to low self esteem or a background that was awful. In actual fact his life was very much like any other human being having being born and now living life. A person not unlike any other. Developing an interest in music at an early age, freestyling daily in order to improve his skill to the point that classmates became irritated, preforming on stages for school talent shows, you know,the usual average story. Whether being someone with social issues or witnessing people who had the very same issues, it eventually lead him to pick up a pen and begin writing about it. So allow me to switch this auto biography from third person to first person.

I started this journey of music not because I had some amazing dream, got inspired by one song I heard or had incredible skill. Nope, none of the above. In truth, the only thing I've ever really had is motivation. Most times this motivation wasn't even 100% there.

Due to belief in my capabilities and resilience I've always taken the first step. That step is the type of step needed for anyone to have motivation. Sometimes it's the exact thing needed to create the motivation, sometimes it isn't.

I've got stories, believe me I do. And you are probably reading this because you want to get an insight as to what story made me produce the music I do. Instead, my advice is allow the music to explain that. Allow the lyrics and stories finely sculpted to give you all that may or may not be needed. Believe me when I tell you that all my skill is not amazing and can be achieved by anyone who takes their time to produce. I have come to learn that skill isn't necessarily born with and can be developed over time. Regardless, it is true that there is a likelihood that the very words I put down my be misinterpreted but if that's the case, get in touch,let me know.

The only thing I believe to be valid in this whole show of how great I am is that I'm not great. My better days are those up ahead. My best work hasn't even been created yet. I am flawed like anyone else. I've seen my share of pain and my share of happiness. I've worked hard in many occasions and I've also been lazy. In the midst all of this, my honest intention will forever be striving to give you that image of God that I am created in. That very God that I glorify whether the mic is on or off. Simply put
my intention is to give you the truth, be it my feelings or beliefs,views on certain things or grievances. That's exactly what I plan on doing and will continue doing. Feel free to enjoy the ride and if you wish to receive anything from what I write or compose, I pray its more understanding of the beautiful and manifold God I serve.

“Having a nack for rhymes at an early age, Jones Tembo met the microphone in 2010 during his primary schools talent show. Despite not emerging a victor he still continued to rap due to the encouragement he received from that day. In 2012 Jones met Christ”
