Born to Lori and Orlando Sr. in the city of San Angelo, TX in 1989, Orlando Jr, later to be known artistically as GOJonesJr, was introduced to music at an remarkably early age. Being an only child with no friends around and most of his family in Mississippi, the only true friend Orlando had since early on was music. As early as the age of 5, Orlando began to show his love for music by always gravitating towards the adults of his family whenever music was played. At the tender age of 6, the first full song he memorized was "You Make Me Wanna" by Usher. Not knowing what it was that he was singing, but doing it ever so passionately, Orlando received his first lesson in the importance of lyrics from his mother. After chastising him for raiding her music collection, she warned him of the powerful effects of words and that they should always be used wisely. Upon enrolling in college at The University of Southern Mississippi, and in an effort to reinvent himself artistically, the name "Mr. Magic" was dropped and the new musical journey of "O. Jones, Jr." began. O's first major performance as an undergrad came in February 2009 at an event held by the first organization he joined on Southern Miss's campus CHAOS (Collective Hip-Hop, An Artistically Original Society) called Chocolate and Candlelight. It was here that he began to make his name as an artist in community. After diligently working, pushing his artistic envelope, and honing his craft, two years (February 2011) later O made his solo debut release with a mixtape titled Entering The O-Zone. Two months after this release, O had his first song to reach mainstream radio on Hattiesburg's WZLD 106.3 accompanied by an artist spotlight interview with DJ Big Daddy. The radio interview catapulted O into the local spotlight and established him as a force in the artist community. Fast forward to 2019, O’s most recent release The Peer Pressure Project, charted on six Billboard charts! This feat has had him constantly traveling and performing at places like SXSW, the A3C Festival, and so much more! Subscribe and turn on notifications for all interviews!!!!
