For Florida A&M University graduate and former Marching 100 band member, Jimmy Jonez, music has always been in his blood. After graduating from the Tallahassee HBCU, Jonez became a serial entrepreneur and influencer in Atlanta, Ga, making a name for himself as a party promoter, venue owner and real estate agent. After years of business success, Jimmy Jonez is now switching gears and going back to his roots in music. He recently started a new record label I Will Not be Outworked Records, and released a trap inspirational song “Think About It”
