Jon Paul Snidow Jr. AKA JP. Born in Roanoke Va as a boy moved from home to home without being able to establish friends or connections at age 6 he was quickly pushed to the side by his parents, so they could live their own lives. The only thing that kept JP going day by day was his music so he was forced to live with grandparents. Not long after he was diagnosed with an extreme case of ADHD and feeling like an unwanted kid he turned to the streets.by the age 10 JP quickly decided that he had what it takes to hang out with the older group of crowds, by any means necessary. Being as smart as he was he quickly learned that the street life wasn't the right life.after recently learning of his grandfather's musical stage appearances JP put his energy more into music and sports, singing tenor at a local church in Roanoke, and recreational sports. ( hockey, baseball, soccer, martial arts) As time grew on slowly I found my voice and put it into freestyle, trying to rhyme. Through the years it took a while to perfect my talents..Every night for large amounts of time I would stand in front of the mirror in my room with a pen, pencil, and marker pretending it was a mic dreaming of being on stage." As any teenager JP started drifting away from his music, ran away from home and ended up taking to a group of teenagers that took care of their selves. Living place to place or alley to alley but making it just a bit by any means necessary. Finally at the age 17 mother and father reconnected with him he rekindle his relationship with his mother in Floyd County. He quickly learned that Floyd was not the place for him so he decided to move to St. Petersburg Fl to be closer to his grandparents a father with mothers full support. When he first moved down to Florida he lived with his father, after being there a couple of months he then moved out and ended up living with a couple of his boys. Soon there after started a group called "Black Out Entertainment." JP still focused more on getting in trouble than his music. At 21 moved back to Roanoke Va. with new roots up under himself he developed his craft. but later put himself in a unfamiliar situation and had a beautiful baby girl so of course he put his music on hold again. After having his daughter ripped away from him JP put a lot of his passion down on paper. "The strive and hunger of music is never far away JP said. At the end of 2011 he created a bond with someone very special to him, she then persuaded him to get into the studio downtown at Press Record,Roaoke,va. From there everything has started to jumped off with JP's music starting with "Ok Let's Go." That then soon was played at 5Forty Radio (WTOY) he got a lot of acknowledgement from Roanoke. While being on the 5Forty Radio show he met his manager/mentor to this day Young Holliday, and quickly joined with Young Holliday Productions (AKA YHP) and since then it has been a go for him.........
