In the lively atmosphere of New York City, OJ Mountain emerges as a versatile artist, crafting a singular musical experience that breaks away from the norm. Originally from Boston, OJ brings a distinctive blend of abstract jazz rap to the stage, offering audiences an extraordinary journey. As Buzz Music aptly notes, "OJ’s infectious energy and vocals are definitely at the center of live show experiences that can only be described as unique."
OJ's musical adventure is a combination of childhood passion and continuous artistic exploration. Starting with the saxophone in third grade and discovering a love for hip hop during eighth-grade rap sessions on the school bus, OJ's path naturally brought these disciplines together. College became a turning point when he performed in Philadelphia's house show scene, refining his sound with a live band. Moving to New York City in September 2023 marked a commitment to transcending labels and push artistic boundaries.
